                    It's been 10 years since Redmond Channel Partner magazine launched at the 2005 Worldwide Partner Conference. Microsoft looked a lot different back then.

                    The first five months of 2015 have been marked by nonstop product news from Microsoft, culminating in a pair of back-to-back major conferences. In taking stock of all the announcements, RCP finds that some products have fared better than others.

                    There are now almost as many ways to bill for the cloud services that partners deliver to customers as there are cloud services.

                    What Microsoft's voice-activated technology currently lacks in polish, it definitely makes up for in personality.

                    The public cloud and third-party encryption offerings from Microsoft provide partners a key opportunity to do their customers a real service.

                    Like a few of Microsoft's newer technologies, Delve will either change the way we work for the better -- or be a scrambled mess.

                    Microsoft is making major strides against Amazon and Google under the flag of "cloud first."

                    From Satya Nadella's first WPC as Microsoft CEO to Kevin Turner's annual kick-in-the-pants keynote, here's what we're looking out for during this year's conference.

                    The writing might be on the wall for the tablet market, with global shipments now slowing significantly from their jackrabbit start.

                    A few months into the new era in Redmond under CEO Satya Nadella, Microsoft's board could be gearing up for some serious conflict.

                    It doesn't matter who succeeds Steve Ballmer; Microsoft has thrown too much money at his "Devices and Services" vision to abandon it with the changing of the guard.

                    The upper levels of Microsoft's org chart have been a hive of activity in recent months, from CEO Steve Ballmer's retirement announcement to an executive shakeup in the channel group. RCP's October issue goes behind the changes -- what they are, and what they mean for partners.

                    The RT version of Microsoft's tablet device has faced an uphill battle almost from the start. And now, it's drawn the ire of investors.
