Cloudy with a chance of Licensing
Latest news and updates on Microsoft licensing & cloud
Ignite is Microsoft’s upcoming technical focused event, and one of the session abstracts shows that Microsoft are renaming some of the Skype components within Office 365.
Cloud PBX = Phone System
PSTN Calling = Calling Plan

The title says it all really – Lync is soon to be known as Skype for Business.
It makes a lot of sense really as so many people are familiar with Skype – particularly the younger generations who will be the next to arrive in the workplace. Also, the number of times I’ve heard this conversation:
“Have you looked at Lync?
“What’s Lync?”
“It’s like… Skype… for Business”
Would suggest that the market research groups back up this name change.
