Microsoft is working hard to realize its plans and vision for the
Cloud OS. The latest development in this regard was the addition of new
products and services to the existing plans. The additions also include
the System Center 2012 Service Pack 1 as well as Windows Azure services.
The idea behind the Microsoft Cloud
OS is to provide users with greater compatibility across platforms

compatible with iOS and Android.

management system. Using the Service Pack 1 and other products and
services, users can easily manage the cloud services and devices they

greater control over the cloud services they have signed up for. The
Cloud OS will also offer better agility and cost-effectiveness. This

at Microsoft, the company
is aiming to provide users with one platform they can use instead of
having to switch across different services and operating systems.
To make sure the users are able to enjoy the best possible
experience, Microsoft has been working on apps and data which can work
across different platforms. Park also stated the importance of an
operating system for clouds. The consistency users can enjoy with
Microsoft Cloud OS is attributed to the Windows Server and Windows Azure
services being used. Individuals and even large businesses can make a
smooth transition towards cloud hosting using the Microsoft Cloud OS.
New Products and Services Released
Microsoft has been revealing the products and services which enhance
the Cloud OS periodically. The latest announcement saw the launch of
Windows’ Intune, a cloud-based service that also serves as a System
Center Configuration Manager. The products and services have been
tested on the new Windows 8 and Windows 8 Phone devices and are also
compatible for Android and iOS devices. It remains to be seen how
quickly the Microsoft Cloud OS finds user acceptance and becomes a
