MicrosoftWith a vision to build and sell Microsoft AI‑powered platforms, cloud services, and devices through a rich partner ecosystem, the Windows and Device Sales (WDS) organization brings together sales, technical expertise, and partners to help customers achieve real business outcomes with Microsoft technology. WDS plays a critical role in shaping and delivering the endpoint platform that powers modern, secure, and AI‑enabled work.
