Microsoft's 'intelligent edge,' and how it impacts the world

Microsoft's recent reorganization emphasizes the company's focus on the intelligent cloud and intelligent edge.

Cloud computing has moved from "the idealistic next step in computing" advocated by tech companies, to the pragmatic beginning of an intelligent infrastructure with real-world impact and a clear path for growth. Edge computing is arguably the natural evolution of remote computing in the intelligent cloud and local computing on Internet of Things (IoT) devices and consumer electronics.

Many have argued that Microsoft's cloud investments are too far removed from users to have meaningful impact and that edge computing is little more than technical lingo. Those people are wrong. Microsoft's cloud computing investments have real-world impact, and its complementary edge computing strategy is doing the same.
