FYI, this was for the Q&A section with Satya at the end of the //build keynote.

Thanks Greg – I particularly like the services question.

Given his engineering background, I’d love to hear his thoughts on building 
products that actually solve problems. One of the real challenges in recent 
years seems to be the endless focus on shiny new things that make good 7 minute 
demos rather than working on existing products until they solve real problems. 
So many new features look promising but the teams then seem to lose interest in 
doing the rest of the work to make them truly functional. (That doesn’t apply 
to all teams but it seems to be a common affliction). 

 

I suppose what I’m getting at is that rather than chasing features, is there an 
interest in chasing the ability to solve problems end-to-end?

 

Also, has he moved past wanting to build products to only wanting to build 
services? What balance is he aiming for? Does he see the company building 
software for sale five years from now or will everything be service-based?

 

Regards,

 

Greg

If you had an opportunity to ask Satya Nadella a question in front of several 
thousand developers, what would you ask him?
