Her intention Microsoft unveiled the main versions of Windows on a single platform, said Chief Executive Officer Satia Nandela at the quarterly results conference.
As reported in his publication Business Insider, Nadella spoke of "one functional σύστημα, το οποίο καλύπτει όλα τα μεγέθη οθονών».
“We're going to normalize the next version of Windows, from three operating systems to a single operating system, for screens of all sizes,” he noted, adding that in the past “we've had multiple teams working on different versions of Windows. Now we have a team, with a common architecture. This allows us to operate at scale, creating Universal Windows Apps'.
At the conference for developers in April, the company had announced tools for Universal Windows Apps, which allow developers to make their apps compatible with major versions of Windows, Windows Phone, Xbox.
As highlighted in the publication, the company will continue to sell different versions of its operating systems (for example Windows Pro, Windows Enterprise et al.), however the similarities will be far greater than the differences, with Nadella promising unification of stores and platforms for commerce and developers.
The company reported a 7% drop in revenue in the second quarter of the year, to $ 4,6 billion, while in the same period last year it stood at 4,97. An important role in this seems to have been played by the acquisition of the Nokia device division, which, according to Microsoft, recorded losses of $ 692 million.
