The ongoing conference in Chicago, Microsoft Ignite fell very special statement. It may mean that we are approaching the end of Windows in such form as we know it for years.
During addressed to developers of Jerry Nixon, Microsoft Developer Evangelist, describing complications that were associated with simultaneous work on Windows 8.1 and Windows 10, he stated that “now spend Windows 10, and because it is the latest version of Windows, then all over it We are working “.
Does this mean that Microsoft plans to abandon its developed over the years, leading product and replace it with a completely different operating system? In a sense, yes.
At least when it comes to the way Microsoft wants to think about your operating system. Windows has in the future no longer be a stand-alone product and service (“Windows as a Service”), under which developed and updated regularly are individual elements of the modular system. Instead of large premier particular version of Windows as a service would become one, “final” system, updated and developed all the time.
This understanding of the words of Nixon seems to confirm a spokesman for the Redmond giant, which sent the portal to The Verge such a position:
- Expression, what about Windows 10 died during Igit reflect the way in which Windows will be delivered as a service. This will translate updates and continuous innovation of value for consumers and business. Currently, we do not consider the topic of the future brand, but customers can be confident that Windows 10 will be updated and will become the heart of many devices, from PCs, to mobile, Surface Hub, HoloLens, and on Xbox ending. We expect that the innovation of Windows will have a long future.
Although this sounds very ambitious, but it is not clear whether, if all the time develops the same, though modular design, can talk about innovation. But Microsoft probably calculated aware that providing the operating system as a service (subscription, payable every month?), He pays more than working on new versions.
I wonder if it really will be the last Windows 10 operating system classically understood from Redmond.
