InfoWorld | at | by Mike
Offering relief from managing complex, distributed systems, Microsoft Chief Software Architect Bill Gates took the stage of the IT Forum in Copenhagen Tuesday to introduce a handful of tools and a hatful of promises. "The magic of software can eliminate this complexity," Gates said in his opening address, amid a cloud of smoke left lingering from the magic show that preceded him on stage.
Microsoft's key for simplifying system management lies in its Dynamic Systems Initiative, which Gates laid out as a long-term vision requiring broad industry cooperation.
