The internet was the last big change, and now it's maturing into what we call cloud computing, simplifying user devices while increasing complexity in the network.

I initially called the concept of networked computers the 'network computer,' which has evolved into what we now refer to as cloud computing.

The introduction of cloud computing democratized access to technology, enabling anyone to start a business with minimal investment.

When developing a business model, it's essential to consider what your customers are familiar with. For instance, if you're selling cloud computing services, pricing should be clear and comparable to established providers like AWS, rather than overly complex.

The cloud is a giant revolution, and everything in the enterprise is moving so fast; we will likely end up with just a few major cloud providers.

The shift from traditional software to SaaS was driven by the realization that sophisticated enterprise applications could be effectively delivered over the cloud.

Amazon's creation of AWS in 2006 was initially seen as a terrible idea, but it turned out to be a pivotal moment in modern business history, demonstrating the potential of cloud computing.

Azure's development began around 2005-2006, as AWS was gaining traction, and we recognized the need for a cloud platform to compete effectively.

The transition to new computing architectures is ongoing, and we are in the early stages of blending different types of software for future applications.
