Microsoft Viva

Microsoft Viva is an integrated employee experience platform built within Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Teams. Launched in early 2021, it was designed to support remote and hybrid work environments by focusing on communications, knowledge, learning, resources, and insights. The platform consists of several modules such as Viva Connections, Viva Insights, Viva Learning, and Viva Topics.

As a cloud-based software product, its 'manufacturing' is the digital development and hosting provided by Microsoft's global data center network, primarily centered in the United States. The brand belongs entirely to Microsoft, which developed the technology in-house to compete in the growing HR-tech and digital enterprise workspace market.

Microsoft remains the ultimate owner and developer of the Viva suite. It is distributed globally through Microsoft's standard software licensing channels and is managed as a core component of their enterprise cloud productivity offerings.
