Microsoft has also transformed its grand blueprint, and according to Turner, Microsoft's new goal is to "connect everyone with cloud computing."

Turner stressed: "As a company, we have six values, one of which is to believe in ambitious goals, and for the next 20 years, our biggest goal is to each individual enterprise to provide sustainable cloud computing services."
