On September 30th, Microsoft announced a major business adjustment, reorganizing its core Windows engineering teams under a single organizational structure to further concentrate resources and improve development efficiency. The reorganization is led by Pavan Davuluri, who was promoted to President of the Windows and Devices department at the beginning of this month, and aims to accelerate the collaborative innovation between Windows client and server through organizational optimization.
According to a Microsoft internal memo, the adjustment combines the previously scattered Windows client engineering teams and server engineering teams into a unified organization. Davuluri emphasized in the memo, "By integrating the Windows engineering business into a single structure, we can eliminate the barriers to cross-team collaboration and more efficiently advance core strategic goals such as AI integration, security enhancement, and cross-platform compatibility".
Previously, the Windows client and server teams had a certain degree of independence in technical routes, resource allocation, and project priorities. With the rapid development of technologies such as cloud computing, mixed reality, and generative AI, Microsoft believes that a closer collaborative mechanism is needed to address market challenges.
This reorganization is the first major decision made by Davuluri since he was promoted to President of the Windows and Devices department on April 1st. He has long led the Windows client engineering team and 主导了 the development of AI features in Windows 11, such as Copilot integration. Insiders commented that Davuluri's promotion reflects Microsoft's emphasis on the "end+cloud" integration strategy, and this structural adjustment is a key measure for him to promote cross-team integration.
