 Thank you Thank you so much Thank you for the introduction that looks that sounds very serious. Actually, my talk is really Answering just one question that we are constantly getting asked at the booth And I guess everybody has here still in the crowd. What is Microsoft doing at the open source conference? Okay, so that's 20 minutes to answer that question And I will I hope that by the end of my presentation You will finally understand why we are here and by the way, please feel free to come talk to us At the stand at the booth today tomorrow with me and my colleagues So I will actually start by saying like my own personal connection to open source Is relatively old I started working with open source with Linux specifically many years ago I was lecture at the university. I was PhD student and lecture that was before Microsoft And then I went to the dark side and that was almost 15 years ago So I'm as much Kind of blue blood Microsoft as you can find in this company and yet here I am right and my role is open source Lee so yeah, I kind of I I'm pretty sure you will be interested in our story. I will start by you know Talking about importance of open source in general There are a couple of things here on this slide on the next slide about the role of open source in the digital Transformation so all the companies in the world whether they and software or any other business, right? They are really thinking about how they can make sure that they Continue innovating in whatever they are doing and so there is there these wonderful Piece of research that was done by Forrester Last year and they're talking about the importance of open source and that is powers enterprise digital transformation And I really like this It's a really perfect English that failure to fully consider open source is unforgivably negligent I mean these I really love like I would never be able to come up with such a beautiful English But okay. Well, it's really it's really happening. It's not just in software companies You know a couple of examples on the next slide Goldman Sachs or Safeway, right? Disney I mean not exactly Software development of house even though you can argue they are these days, right? I mean look at how they are doing all their animation right now It's all in the end of the day computer software industry But they are really saying what you know because it's kind of a fine print here So you cannot really read but it's from their web pages like open source software is important to Walt Disney Company So it's important to everyone right all walks of life software companies hardware companies Non-IT companies all together and this is important for you if you want to continue innovating and at some point of time we actually Realize that also at Microsoft so it's really if you come to think of that we are going through a big transformation of our own and We actually Really want to make sure that we are empowering every person every organization and planet to achieve more and that means many different things And so that means Empowering like building the best platforms and taking advantage of all sorts of different innovations regardless of whether they Came from within organization or from outside and this is really critical So if you're looking today, it's really all about openness So we really want to embrace We really understand that we cannot create even though Microsoft has one of the biggest R&D budgets on the planet You know bigger than some of the countries, but it's still not everything right So you really want to make sure that you are capturing everything wherever it comes from and Just to get a little bit ahead of myself The reality is that's already that's already happening and it's already being noticed right so it's this actually an interesting article from Fortune magazine, so not even an IT publication and you will be able to find many more of these days I mean it's really becomes kind of a Bread and butter for journalists writing about Microsoft and they're talking about it's really interesting like essentially This is a money publication, right and they're talking about open company. They're talking about cloud They're talking about hybrid strategy. So essentially they're talking about the strategy of Microsoft as a software company Right, so this is and I think it's really connected to a large extent with a new CEO that we have Satya Nandela Who started these changing or kind of accelerated this change that has been already happening earlier? But I think it really came to the four in the last two years. So however, it hasn't started like From from zero so Microsoft has been involved with open source for a long time Actually, my personal first connection to open source and to Microsoft was when I was still in the University Actually, my first connection to Microsoft was Microsoft research and they were doing stuff around Something called shared source at the time. So they were coming up with the idea of how we can try to make Windows source available for people who are Want to study operating systems? So this is actually how I got introduced to Microsoft in the first place because I was teaching operating system course essentially at the time I know was guess what using Linux, right? So and That's continued. So the very first things were in research They were in connecting to the open source companies and platforms They were talking about how we can make sure that open source software can talk to Microsoft software But then it really became you can see here on the timeline We got really involved in our open source foundations and also we can continue contributing code to open source Projects so today we really I will show you some of these things But we really following the following approach and let me build the whole slide. So We really want to make sure that we enable Linux and open source to be first-class citizens of Microsoft platform So essentially whatever you're doing on Linux, we should be able to support We should be able to run on our public cloud on Asia And we we need to be able to also integrate and interoperate with that. Okay We're also releasing open source in open source format our own products Again, this is not something new but we are doing that on much bigger scale than we ever did before So for example today if you are in Microsoft in the development team in Redmond and you are starting a new project One of the first questions I will ask you is is this project going to be available in open source? And if not, why not right so there must be a really strong business reason not to release an open source in the past It was the opposite right so and finally we also participate in ecosystem not just conferences like these but also the standards group and Foundations that support the development or standards for interoperability We also work with the partners that means that we're talking to the partners that Microsoft probably never really talked to in the past Right, so we had our own Nice ecosystem, but if you want to work with the open source community that also means different vendors different ISVs different System integrators so all these partners are really new to us. So the next slide is actually kind of List of some of our quote-at-quote achievements that we had an open source so far So one of the things on the left side we released sequel server on Linux So you can actually download it today and run it It is available as a public preview and we are launching that in just a matter of a couple of weeks and You can actually See it's one of the first Microsoft first party products that we made available on Linux, right? So we already did something similar with visual studio would released a part of visual studio That you can run on Linux. You can run on Mac. You can run in the browser actually But like these really like a major server product that we have to be available on Linux This is the first time so We are really proud of that. I'm pretty sure you also heard about Windows subsystem for Linux so essentially on Windows 10 you can now run bash and you know execute whatever commons From the shell We signed a couple of Agreements with different companies not just right that we also partner with Susie We actually were trying to work with all the major Linux vendors At the same time still the thing that a Load of our engagement is sent around cloud is sent around Asia we Microsoft are not Linux distribution Company like there is no Microsoft Linux. Okay. I don't expect one This is not what we do There are other companies that are doing that and are doing great and then been doing that for many years However, what we want to make sure is that these Linux distributions that we will be able to run on our public cloud infrastructure Just as good as they are running on premises So essentially our promise to to you as a developer or to Linux distribution companies to the vendors that if you if it runs on Linux we can run it on Asia today So like kind of no questions asked right. So this is a bold promise And there's been a lot of work involved in that. However, we're also seeing the dividends So if you're looking at Asia marketplace, so the way to distribute solutions on Asia You will see that more than 60% of images actual Linux open source So that's I can tell this is not what Microsoft initially expected when we launched Asia, right? And there is still this perception that Asia is kind of windows only public cloud And so this is something that we need to dispel So you can run Linux and this is just as well a public first-class citizen on this platform and Today one of the other things that you will see Lee I will also build a couple of other points. So we have More like close to 10,000 open source companies used I have 6,000 employees working on open source directly like on the daily basis If you just count everything that Microsoft developers are using like open source that number will be way higher It probably will be pretty much every single developer that we use at Microsoft today But there are also people who are dedicated to just supporting and building developing open source projects Okay, so we also released more than 3,000 open source project as a result of that Sometimes we are getting like ourselves to quite new new grounds, right? So these are article published on ZD net last September study they did on github and guess who is at the top of the By number of contributors for the projects To be perfectly honest, I think it's kind of overblown if you really look carefully on the right like Our friends from Google and you know if they would just count Google and Angular together There will still be a number one, but the point is different It's actually can you imagine these things happening five years ago and Me coming from you know Microsoft for you know spending like almost my all grown-up life in these companies I couldn't okay, so this is really new Microsoft. These not your dad's Microsoft and now this is really That that's even you know fresher news and That you would never believe how many jokes about Microsoft and how freezing over I received that day So because Microsoft became a platinum sponsor for the Linux Foundation and again This is something unthinkable for Microsoft to support essentially what's Built in the Charter of Linux Foundation. It's one of the major purposes to support the work of Lena's torals, right? So for Microsoft to become a platinum sponsor get a seat on the board of directors. That's pretty unusual I would say right now as I was saying a lot of that really boils down to our public cloud platform and this is Why Microsoft is in this business so and this is also why Microsoft is no longer Fighting with the open source software no longer calling it a cancer or whatever we were doing in the past 15 years I think the major really difference is that Microsoft has finally found a way to Be part of that process Microsoft has finally found a way to monetize Linux and open source just like everybody else sitting here and over in the audience hopefully succeeded to do so The what we found out what we realized is that whenever you're running something in a cloud It absolutely doesn't matter if you're running Linux on Windows because it's not about the licensing costs, right? It's about services. It's about utilities. It's about being able to charge your consumers by the hour Right and this is for us in Microsoft. This is the answer today It's not the only answer and I was showing it to you sequel server on Linux that net Core on Linux means that we will be also releasing our first party products there But at the very beginning at least we want to make sure that we will run your Linux Project and infrastructure perfectly on Asia. So a couple words about Asia why we think it's you know It's one of the biggest computing infrastructures in the world I think there are really literally only a couple of handful of companies that invested so much in the cloud infrastructure worldwide and It's going to stay like that and they're not going to be 10 different public cloud companies few years down the road There might be three. There might be I know two or four or whatever You know, but it's literally the investment is so big that only a few companies will be able to afford it On a global scale and we have this scale. We already have this game I mean Microsoft had this global scale. I don't 15 20 years ago and it's really If you're looking at the number of transactions that we are running or the Number of cores that we are running in Asia. It's amazing And we are really having more than 90% of the biggest company in the world already using Asia and that number grows You know like half a year ago when I was showing this slide. It was 85% So literally all the companies the world are getting these transformation to the cloud They're really buying into that concept. They start using that on a daily basis and to support that growth We built one of the biggest infrastructure and you actually see like a some representation there on the screen It's by the number of regions that are available to developers geographically. We're number one By far actually so we have more than twice the number of AWS regions I'm not saying by course by course probably they're bigger Granted But if you're looking both for the global footprint, you will not find anything better than Asia today And by the way, we're still growing We just launched last month new data center in Korea actual two data centers the region so we have in Seoul and Busan and We will be continue doing that in other countries as well so just to get to the conclusion and I'm already close to running out of time We really are all in on the cloud We are also all in on the open source because we see that this is the way to the future We want to be part of these open source ecosystem not only as a consumer, but also as a contributor and We we think we already Achieved a lot in the past several years and the world noticed again couple of quotes that I'm not even going to read it, but essentially Probably the biggest impact. I mean for me personally, I know as a Microsoft shareholder This is the biggest impact to know a stock price. Okay, so It's really in the past few years. We're going on these trajectory that is really positive um To conclude a couple of links We have a wonderful website Microsoft.com open source easy to remember We also have a couple of social media platforms. So we are on Twitter. We are on Facebook Please follow us on Twitter open for bees a pack and the same of Facebook If you are here at the conference come to our booth after the presentation Make sure if you're interested in Asia, you there is a wonderful way to get free Asia subscription. There is a link at the bottom so For students developers for anybody actually most of my demos. I'm doing using these free Asia subscriptions it gives you more than enough to to experiment with Asia to get the idea of how it works and Yeah, so with that actually we have three minutes for questions. So I'm ready to answer and by the way if you're If you're too shy or whatever if you cannot get to our booth after that, even though it's just right outside There is my email Twitter handle Find me on LinkedIn. We also have LinkedIn as a one. It's a wonderful social platform as well questions Come on. So as The cloud Microsoft cloud is running on Linux. Why not windows? again, can you So This is this means that the Microsoft has lost the battle with Linux and now collaborating with them Sorry Can just speak a little close to the microphone because I barely here. Okay, so The Microsoft cloud is running on Linux, right? Yes. So no not really but okay. It runs on Linux, too Yeah, so does this mean that Microsoft has lose the battle with Linux and now they are Trying to collaborate with Linux We tried to collaborate with everybody. Okay, so just to be very clear We can still run windows on our cloud. It's great. It's where we started You can run Linux on Azure as well So and we want to make sure that actually whatever like the whole landscape if you're thinking, I know Red Hat or Susie or PHP. No GS. Whatever you're running. We want to be able to run it on Azure We also by the way, I didn't talk about it in this presentation for the lack of time But we can perfectly well manage you infrastructure as well or you can manage your infrastructure So we have tools like I know system center or operation management suite where you can manage the whole infrastructure again regardless whether it's on Windows whether it's on Linux whether it's Android phones or iPhones essentially, this is what we do. We really want to make sure that we are kind of platform agnostic in the new world Audrey of the dancers. Yep. Yeah, how does the Microsoft movement do open source impact the enterprise license agreement? So the thing is that it's a great question. First of all, I would answer you with a question How does it? open source impact enterprise agreements for red hat I For the last 20 years. I work in the corporation I always wanted to cut our license pens and it seems that Microsoft is always ahead of me whenever I said, let's do Linux Microsoft now is doing Linux. No, no We don't do Linux. No, if you're buying like Subscription right if you're buying support, it will not be Microsoft Okay, so you will still have to talk to red hat or Susie or whoever these provider for Linux now It's it's slightly different. What I mean to say is that it's really It almost doesn't matter in another day What we are seeing is a big trend from on premises to the cloud computing today and there even the whole point of enterprise agreement In a way, it's kind of becomes a moot point So yeah, you can still sign it. You can even get the benefit by prepayment and so on so forth But this is more about pay as what you consume rather than paying for the licenses It's not really about the licenses anymore. And so that's not answer number one and answer number two that for the introduction of Linux didn't do away with the enterprise Pricing or licensing just look at the red hat. They're two billion dollar company and they're selling essentially what's free, right? So I don't think that that Really has any significant impact on the story the cloud computing is much bigger. Thank you All right, I was just shown that I'm out of time. So if you have any questions, I'm just outside Thank you for your attention and have a great conference All right. Thank you very much
