Microsoft and Salesforce team up

Microsoft and Salesforce.com announced a partnership by which Salesforce would extend its investment in Windows SQL Server and Azure, invest in integrating Salesforce and Office 365, and deliver Salesforce1 for Windows and Windows Phone 8.1. While Salesforce showing some marketing love to Microsoft is a nice gesture on the surface, the winner of this announcement is clearly Salesforce.
