The media and entertainment industry is both driving and being affected by a wave of digital transformation. Microsoft’s customers tell the company they need technology platforms to compete and they want these platforms from a partner who isn’t using that technology, and the profits they make on it, against them. Those are all core tenants of Microsoft Azure’s new strategy for M&E, which focuses on content creators by providing a neutral at-scale public-cloud platform. This new strategy expands Microsoft’s previous focus on distribution to include all parts of the content value chain — from content creation to management, distribution, and monetization. While distribution has long been done in the cloud, customers are just now looking to move creation and management to the cloud — benefiting from hyper-scale, global, storage, and compute. They are also looking to evolve their monetization strategies — bringing OTT platforms in house and better leveraging social graphs and their data to understand, target, and engage with their audiences.
