Like previous year's developer conference, Microsoft is expected to focus on new and emerging technologies like cloud computing, machine learning and artificial intelligence. It is important to note that Windows is not a flagship product of the company anymore. In the previous years, we have seen that Microsoft is focusing on services. Taking this into consideration, it is speculated that AI and cloud computing could be the main underlines of Microsoft's 2019 Build conference.

The Redmond-based tech company is hosting its annual event just a day prior to Google's I/O 2019. The company will be employing BUILD 2019 as a platform to transform into a cloud native company. The company is hosting two keynotes on May 6 that will give insight about company's forthcoming products. Stay tuned to LatestLY as we will bring updates from Microsoft's Build 2019 annual event.
