They are more into the service industry now than they've ever been in the past. This move was them realizing that OSS is just a really good way to improve software for cheap.
I doubt this will have lasting effects as I have yet to see them actually open source anything that I would consider special.

It looks like they have open sourced a number of .NET components: CoreFX - Core foundational libraries, CoreCLR - runtime, Roslyn - compiler. As well as PowerShell, VS Code, Typescript, ASP.NET Core, MVC, Blazor, F#, Z3 Theorem Prover, etc. And that's from just the first few pages of their Open Source page: https://opensource.microsoft.com/ https://opensource.microsoft.com/
