I just listened to the Acquired podcast guys talk to Balmer. Steve actually deserves a huge amount of the credit for Azure that Satya enjoys today. - Created the windows server product - Created the "rent a server" business line - Identified the need for a VM kernel and hired the right people - Oversaw MSFT's build out of web services (MSN, Xbox Live, Bing) which gave them the distributed systems and uptime know-how - Picked Satya to take over Azure, and then to succeed him |
