Microsoft AI Watch posted an update
Microsoft is reshaping the leadership of its Azure cloud business, consolidating units as it reorients the division around AI, The Information reports. Cloud chief Scott Guthrie told staff about the changes on Monday.
Why it mattersThe report says Arun Ulag, who previously oversaw Azure’s database products, will take on further oversight as part of the reorganisation. It is a useful signal of where Microsoft is putting its organisational weight, though the available details do not spell out the full reshuffle. Even cloud divisions, it seems, are being asked to find their AI hat.
Discuss: Should Microsoft organise Azure more tightly around AI, or risk distracting a cloud business whose customers still need the basics to work brilliantly?
