- shantly 7y agoIt doesn't run or host any part of those? > Azure runs Office 365, Exchange, Bing, and Xbox Live assets as well I didn't take "runs [...] assets" to mean runs the entire thing.
- oldmanhorton 7y agoBits and bobs run on top of pure azure, and some infra is definitely shared, but anything cloudy that came up around the same time as or before azure (like Bing and o365) used and for the most part still uses their own data centers and deployment tech.
- webboynews 7y agoA brave Microsoft guy who calls out bullshit like it should be. Respect and good luck
- whytai 7y agoThey hated him, because he said the truth. Azure also does not run sharepoint, teams, and it didn't run skype.
- tallanvor 7y agoO365 workloads are distributed across a number of environments. While Exchange mostly lives one its own hardware, SPO is very distributed now - it still has its own hardware, but also has a lot of data and services that run in Azure. And O365 is very dependent on AAD.
- jeromebaek 7y agoThis is all true, but it’s a far cry from OP’s statement
