    我想以三個總體評論作為我發言的前言,然後逐段轉向更具體的評論。

  • First, FX.

    首先,外匯。

  • I previously stated that we expected the FX impact on total revenue to be about 3 points in H2.

    我之前曾說過,我們預計下半年外匯對總收入的影響約為 3 個百分點。

    由於該部分既有設備也有軟件,所以我將提供更多細節。

  • First, Windows.

    首先,窗戶。

  • As I mentioned earlier, we will return to normal levels of Pro inventory in Q3.

  • Congrats on a great quarter.

    祝賀一個偉大的季度。

    我只想專注於商業雲和 Azure。

  • Commercial cloud, as you mentioned, the run rate was up $9.4 billion.

    正如您所提到的,商業雲的運行率增加了 94 億美元。

  • That's up like $2 billion quarter to quarter, 70% year over year.

    這相當於每季度增加 20 億美元,同比增長 70%。

  • That's higher growth rate than even last quarter.

    這甚至比上一季度還要高。

  • Azure [similar, if not even] accelerating growth versus even last quarter.

    與上一季度相比,Azure [類似,甚至是] 加速增長。

  • So a question, Satya, and I'll follow up for Amy.

    所以一個問題,薩蒂亞,我會跟進艾米。

  • Satya, when you look at the growth rates there in commercial cloud, and particularly Azure, you talk about new customer wins but also existing customers transitioning more workloads into Azure.

    Satya,當您查看商業雲(尤其是 Azure)的增長率時,您會談到新客戶的勝利,以及將更多工作負載轉移到 Azure 的現有客戶。

  • I hope you can give us maybe some more color there as far as what you're seeing and how you think about the growth going forward there?

    我希望你能給我們更多的色彩,就你所看到的以及你如何看待那裡的發展而言?

  • And then Amy, based on our calculations, it seems like Azure had a meaningful improvement in just the gross margin year over year.

    然後是 Amy,根據我們的計算,Azure 似乎僅在毛利率方面有了顯著的改善。

  • Wondering if you could help us with the two curves in that business, and where we are in Azure's gross margin lifecycle?

    想知道您是否可以幫助我們處理該業務中的兩條曲線,以及我們在 Azure 的毛利率生命週期中處於什麼位置?

  • Again, the fixed costs and the variable costs and how you are thinking about that?

    再說一次,固定成本和可變成本,你是怎麼想的?

  • Thanks.

    謝謝。

  • - CEO

    - CEO

  • Thanks, Phil, for the question.

    謝謝,菲爾,這個問題。

  • The way we think about cloud is how I described it in my remarks, which is it's the combination of the work we are actually doing in the SaaS, PasS, IaaS, and also a hybrid cloud layer.

    我們對雲的看法是我在評論中描述的,它是我們在 SaaS、PassS、IaaS 以及混合雲層中實際所做工作的組合。

  • Because we don't think, for example, of our servers as a distinct part.

    因為我們不認為,例如,我們的服務器是一個獨特的部分。

  • But it's in fact the edge of our cloud and we are building for that with things like Azure stack.

    但它實際上是我們雲的邊緣,我們正在使用 Azure stack 之類的東西來構建它。

  • We think what we have done here by bringing these things together as one architecture for distributed computing and how people will consume applications and build applications in the future, we speak to more of the real-world needs, I think, of an IT organization or a business organization that is transform through digital technology.

    我們認為,通過將這些東西整合為分佈式計算的一個架構以及人們在未來將如何使用應用程序和構建應用程序,我們在這裡所做的事情,我們更多地談到了現實世界的需求,我認為,IT 組織或通過數字技術進行轉型的商業組織。

  • If you put yourself as a CIO of a multinational organization and you want to operate in multiple geographies with different regimes for data sovereignty and then you want to be able to take some workloads, move them all to the cloud.

    如果您將自己定位為跨國組織的 CIO,並且您希望在具有不同數據主權制度的多個地區開展業務,然後您希望能夠承擔一些工作負載,請將它們全部遷移到雲中。

  • Some you want to be able to tier with the cloud, that's the kind of flexibility we provide.

    有些您希望能夠與雲分層,這就是我們提供的那種靈活性。

  • And we also see network effects between if you are using Office 365, you want to extend the data in Office 365 by building applications that join it with some other data inside of our data link service in Azure, obviously Azure becomes the natural choice for such application development.

    如果您使用 Office 365,我們還看到了網絡效應,您希望通過構建應用程序來擴展 Office 365 中的數據,這些應用程序將其與我們在 Azure 中的數據鏈接服務中的一些其他數據連接起來,顯然 Azure 成為此類的自然選擇應用程序開發。

  • And we are increasingly seeing that.

    我們越來越多地看到這一點。

  • That's really our strategy.

    這確實是我們的策略。

  • Our strategy is not to complete in these constituent parts independently with different competitors.

    我們的策略不是與不同的競爭對手獨立完成這些組成部分。

  • It is to bring one architecture and really drive the value for our customers because of that.

    這是為了帶來一種架構,並因此真正為我們的客戶創造價值。

  • - CFO

    - CFO

  • Let me quickly cover, I think, your gross margin question.

    我想,讓我快速介紹一下您的毛利率問題。

  • You are right, we did actually make significant progress in both Azure as well as Office 365.

    沒錯,我們確實在 Azure 和 Office 365 方面都取得了重大進展。

  • And then the mix of those, obviously impacts the overall commercial cloud gross margin.

    然後這些組合顯然會影響整體商業雲的毛利率。

  • What's important, the dynamics are actually quite similar, even though the services are quite different.

    重要的是,動態實際上非常相似,即使服務完全不同。

  • There are two fundamental components to gross margin improvement.

    毛利率改善有兩個基本組成部分。

  • Number one is obviously scale efficiencies and where we are in that curve, which we are doing and continue to make consistent improvement in.

    第一顯然是規模效率以及我們在這條曲線中的位置,我們正在這樣做並繼續進行持續改進。

  • The next, obviously, is the mix of premium services.

    顯然,下一個是優質服務的組合。

  • Satya talked about some of the increasing mix of premium services in Azure.

    Satya 談到了 Azure 中不斷增加的高級服務組合。

  • That has been encouraging, especially in existing customers over time and through adoption curves.

    這是令人鼓舞的,尤其是隨著時間的推移和採用曲線在現有客戶中。

  • And in Office 365, as you know, we continue to be excited by our premium mix in the commercial segment.

    如您所知,在 Office 365 中,我們繼續對我們在商業領域的優質組合感到興奮。

  • So those two combinations each quarter impact it as well as the overall.

    因此,每個季度的這兩種組合都會對其以及整體產生影響。

  • - General Manager of IR

    並感謝您提出問題。

  • Satya, you mentioned both new and existing customers increasingly using the Azure cloud.

    Satya,您提到越來越多地使用 Azure 雲的新客戶和現有客戶。

  • I was hoping you could give us some color into what that looks like, specifically when an existing customers starts using Azure in terms of how does their overall spending get impacted and what happens to their spending for the more traditional server and tools?

    我希望你能給我們一些顏色,特別是當現有客戶開始使用 Azure 時,他們的整體支出會受到怎樣的影響,以及他們在更傳統的服務器和工具上的支出會發生什麼變化?

  • How does that get impacted as people use the public cloud utility more and more?

    隨著人們越來越多地使用公共雲實用程序,這將如何受到影響?

  • - CEO

  • The thing that we notice is that with anyone who has moved to the cloud there is a real opportunity for us to expand to multiple workloads over time because it's a design win.

    我們注意到的是,任何遷移到雲的人都有真正的機會隨著時間的推移擴展到多個工作負載,因為這是設計上的勝利。

  • It's like essentially an ISV win in the client server area where you could get someone to build on your core infrastructure.

    本質上,這就像 ISV 在客戶端服務器領域的勝利一樣,您可以讓某人在您的核心基礎架構上進行構建。

  • They build their first application.

    他們構建了他們的第一個應用程序。

  • And it turns out that you have done that, you would want to look at our infrastructure for a second workload and third workload.

    事實證明,您已經這樣做了,您可能希望查看我們的基礎架構以獲取第二個工作負載和第三個工作負載。

  • So that is one side of what is happening with the expansion.

    所以這是擴張所發生的事情的一方面。

  • The other side of the expansion is what I also referenced, which is if you are an Office 365 customer you have data in Office 365.

    擴展的另一面是我也提到的,如果你是 Office 365 客戶,你在 Office 365 中有數據。

  • You want to build applications that tap into that data, then you use Azure.

    您想要構建利用該數據的應用程序,然後使用 Azure。

  • That is the other piece.

    那是另一塊。

  • The EMS growth is also very much related to that, which is if you deploy Exchange online you have Azure A/D.

    EMS 的增長也與此密切相關,如果您在線部署 Exchange,您將擁有 Azure A/D。

  • And then the natural expansion from there is the full EMS suite with device management for all your mobile devices and also advanced threat protection and what have you.

    然後從那裡自然擴展為帶有設備管理的完整 EMS 套件,適用於您的所有移動設備,以及高級威脅防護等。

  • We see both those trends from an application workload development synergies, as well as infrastructure from identity management, device management work out.

    我們從應用程序工作負載開發協同效應以及身份管理、設備管理工作的基礎架構中看到了這些趨勢。

  • Really I think the focus that we have here is how we can best execute no matter what the macro environment turns out to be.

    真的,我認為我們在這裡的重點是,無論宏觀環境如何,我們如何才能最好地執行。

  • Focus on our own execution, focus on continuing to drive cloud services, focus on continuing to drive on annuity mix.

    專注於我們自己的執行,專注於繼續推動雲服務,專注於繼續推動年金組合。

  • Those movements actually -- and as we help customers transform, is really the best plan in the face of any uncertainty, which you are clearly asking me about.

    實際上,當我們幫助客戶轉型時,這些動作確實是面對任何不確定性的最佳計劃,您顯然是在問我。

  • I tend to probably focus more on what we can control versus the external environment and how we can best react to that.

  • I was just wondering, Satya, you mentioned, and I know there is been a lot of questions on Azure, but you mentioned strong growth in compute, and SQL usage on Azure being up, I think you said 5 times.

    我只是想知道,Satya,你提到了,我知道 Azure 存在很多問題,但你提到計算的強勁增長,以及 Azure 上的 SQL 使用率上升,我想你說了 5 次。

  • I was wondering if you could give us your take on how you see the mix of Azure workloads?

    我想知道您是否可以向我們介紹您如何看待 Azure 工作負載的組合?

  • Is it right now more new workload growth and it's very little existing workloads moving over?

    現在是不是有更多的新工作負載增長而現有工作負載很少轉移?

  • I'm just trying to get a sense for how you see the wave cresting for new workloads versus existing workloads that can migrate over.

    我只是想了解您如何看待新工作負載與可以遷移的現有工作負載的浪潮。

  • I'm also wondering if you see it helping (technical difficulties).

    我還想知道您是否認為它有幫助(技術困難)。

  • You mentioned it is like a design win or an ISV win.

    您提到這就像設計勝利或 ISV 勝利。

  • I am wondering if you could share with us how this might be impacting your share versus, say, 1X or versus other types of infrastructure platforms.

    我想知道您是否可以與我們分享與 1X 或其他類型的基礎設施平台相比,這可能會如何影響您的份額。

  • The thing, Heather, the move to the cloud has done for us is expanded the market opportunity that we have had more than ever before.

    希瑟,遷移到雲為我們所做的事情是擴大了我們比以往任何時候都擁有的市場機會。

  • In some sense if you compare it to the TAM of STB versus what we now describe as Intelligent Cloud, we are operating in a much bigger market.

    從某種意義上說,如果您將其與 STB 的 TAM 與我們現在描述的智能雲進行比較,我們正在一個更大的市場中運營。

  • And that's because, first of all, the move to the cloud combines a whole bunch of different categories, as well as take something that you mentioned, which is Linux.

    那是因為,首先,向雲的遷移結合了一大堆不同的類別,以及你提到的一些東西,那就是 Linux。

  • We now have the ability to take Linux workloads and run them first-class.

    我們現在有能力承擔 Linux 工作負載並一流地運行它們。

  • And over 20%-plus of Azure is Linux workloads, which is sort of a growth opportunity we tapped into with the cloud which we didn't have previously.

    超過 20% 以上的 Azure 是 Linux 工作負載,這是我們利用雲計算的一種增長機會,這是我們以前沒有的。

  • And even take something like EMS, which is a service, you could say in the past, we participated with active directory, but we -- and some amount of system center.

    甚至像 EMS 這樣的服務,你可以說過去,我們參與了活動目錄,但我們 - 以及一些系統中心。

  • But now with the growth of actually mobile devices and SaaS applications our opportunity with EMS is much bigger than anything that we had in the client/server era.

    但是現在隨著實際移動設備和 SaaS 應用程序的增長,我們使用 EMS 的機會比我們在客戶端/服務器時代所擁有的任何東西都要大得多。

  • Clearly we are migrating some workloads.

    顯然,我們正在遷移一些工作負載。

  • And structurally some of that helps us because we had that position in the client/server space.

    在結構上,其中一些對我們有幫助,因為我們在客戶端/服務器空間中擁有這個位置。

  • But when we look at what we're doing in the cloud it's mostly about attaching to one of the secular growth trajectories going forward, be it open source, Linux development, mobile use and SaaS applications.

    但是,當我們審視我們在雲中所做的事情時,主要是關於連接到未來的長期增長軌蹟之一,無論是開源、Linux 開發、移動使用和 SaaS 應用程序。

  • So those are things that we participate in which we didn't participate in the past.

    所以這些是我們參與的事情,而我們過去沒有參與。

  • Satya, Amy, congrats on the quarter.

    Satya,Amy,祝賀本季度。

  • I've got for Satya and then a quick follow-up with Amy.

    我有 Satya 和 Amy 的快速跟進。

  • Satya, following up on the cloud discussion, recognizing that SaaS, PasS, infrastructure as a server hybrid, they're all related, but as Azure continues to grow fast and become a bigger part of the business, how should we think about the opportunities or the opportunity size for PasS versus infrastructure as a service?

    Satya,跟進云討論,認識到 SaaS、Pass、作為服務器混合的基礎設施,它們都是相關的,但是隨著 Azure 繼續快速增長並成為業務的更大一部分,我們應該如何思考機會還是 PassS 與基礎設施即服務的機會大小?

  • PasS is much smaller industry-wide today, but is the opportunity is big, bigger?

    PassS 在整個行業範圍內要小得多,但機會是不是很大,更大?

  • How should we think about that?

    我們應該怎麼想?

  • And then a follow-up for Amy.

    然後是艾米的後續行動。

  • - CEO

    - CEO

  • The opportunity I believe in both cases is high because it just comes in different forms.

    我相信這兩種情況的機會都很大,因為它只是以不同的形式出現。

  • IaaS growth comes because people already have existing code that they want to move over.

    IaaS 的增長是因為人們已經擁有想要遷移的現有代碼。

  • And then they start extending by writing more PasS because it is more efficient for them to write new code and new apps in PasS.

    然後他們開始通過編寫更多的 PassS 來擴展,因為在 PassS 中編寫新代碼和新應用程序對他們來說效率更高。

  • So I think that depending what -- if you are bringing something over, your IaaS will be heavy first and then PasS will grow.

    所以我認為這取決於什麼——如果你帶來一些東西,你的 IaaS 首先會很重,然後 Pass 會增長。

  • If you are starting new you will have Pass, which is going to be the first thing you do.

    如果您是新手,您將擁有 Pass,這將是您要做的第一件事。

  • But then you'll always find the need to go integrate with something that was already existing, existing data, existing code in a virtual machine.

    但是你總是會發現需要與已經存在的東西、現有數據、虛擬機中的現有代碼集成。

  • I, myself, in fact one of the things that Amy and I do is when we think about our CapEx, we think about all of these layers together.

    我,我自己,事實上,艾米和我做的一件事就是當我們考慮我們的資本支出時,我們會一起考慮所有這些層面。

  • In fact, we amortize our CapEx across all of these.

    事實上,我們在所有這些方麵攤銷了我們的資本支出。

  • And we pay attention to margin and premium mix because what we are comfortable -- understand is customers, depending on where they start, how they start have different mix profiles.

    我們關注利潤和溢價組合,因為我們感到舒服——理解的是客戶,取決於他們從哪裡開始,他們如何開始有不同的組合配置文件。

  • So it is the [all-up].

    所以它是[全部]。

  • As long as we're growing our premium services attach and margins for those remain strong, we feel that the mix can be different and it's okay.

    只要我們不斷增加優質服務的附加值並且這些服務的利潤率保持強勁,我們認為組合可能會有所不同,這沒關係。

  • And we really want to speak to the needs of the customers more than any product strategy goal we have.

    我們真的更想表達客戶的需求,而不是我們擁有的任何產品戰略目標。

  • - Analyst

  • How should we think about this trend continuing?

    我們應該如何看待這種趨勢繼續下去?

  • - CFO

  • Now that Windows 10 is on 200 million devices, what do you see on the developer network?

    現在 Windows 10 在 2 億台設備上運行,您在開發者網絡上看到了什麼?

  • (Inaudible)[aims worth] you have a uniform platform for developers to go against PC, tablet, et cetera.

    (聽不清)[目標值得] 你有一個統一的平台供開發人員對抗 PC、平板電腦等。

  • That was one of our biggest strategic objectives was to get active devices and with store integrated into the install base and then a user experience so that we can increase the success for developers.

    那是我們最大的戰略目標之一,就是將活躍的設備和商店集成到安裝基礎中,然後提供用戶體驗,這樣我們就可以增加開發人員的成功率。

  • We're seeing good early signs.

    我們看到了良好的早期跡象。

  • In my open commentary I talked about both the increased [whiz-its] to the store and transactions as well as the fact that we are attracting new applications from developers like Netflix to Wall Street Journal, to others.

    在我的公開評論中,我談到了商店和交易增加的 [whiz-its],以及我們正在吸引從 Netflix 到華爾街日報等開發商的新應用程序這一事實。

  • As you can imagine our share is today in desktops, in emerging, in tablets, in two-in-one.

    正如您可以想像的那樣,我們今天在台式機、新興市場、平板電腦和二合一市場中佔有一席之地。

  • And of course now with Xbox as well, which is got great attraction to gaming developers.

    當然現在 Xbox 也是如此,這對遊戲開發者俱有極大的吸引力。

  • So those are the natural places where you will see us gain more developers and gain more traction.

    因此,您將在這些自然的地方看到我們獲得更多開發人員並獲得更多牽引力。

  • We're big believers in a unified developer platform and a unified store.

    我們堅信統一的開發者平台和統一的商店。

  • And then as Windows 10 monthly active devices increases and the store usage increases, we will see more and more developers take advantage of it.

    然後隨著 Windows 10 每月活躍設備的增加和商店使用量的增加,我們將看到越來越多的開發人員利用它。

  • I noticed your long-term unearned revenue was up quite a bit.

    我注意到您的長期非勞動收入增加了不少。

  • That is been a flattish trend, and it was paired with commercial bookings being much stronger, I think, than I was modeling.

    這是一個平淡的趨勢,而且我認為商業預訂比我建模時要強得多。

  • I'm wondering if you could help us understand what drove the unearned and how that contributed to those commercial bookings?

  • - CFO

    - CFO

  • Sure.

    當然。

  • A couple things, Walter, which I know you recall.

    沃爾特,我知道你記得有幾件事。

  • We do have a bit of lumpiness in our expirations.

    我們的到期時間確實有點混亂。

  • As I said on the call, this was a big expiration quarter for us.

    正如我在電話會議上所說,這對我們來說是一個重要的到期季度。

  • And so on occasion what that does, even with the negative currency impact on C&B, is have a bit of lumpiness over time.

    因此,即使貨幣對 C&B 產生負面影響,有時也會隨著時間的推移而產生一些波動。

  • That being said, I want to point to the core which is that renewal rates were very good and a big quarter.

    話雖如此,我想指出核心,即續訂率非常好,而且是一個很大的季度。

  • There was very strong performance on that front, very strong performance in moving customers to annuity as well as to the cloud.

    在這方面有非常強勁的表現,在將客戶轉移到年金和雲方面的表現非常強勁。

  • So aside from a bit of the lumpiness that you do note, and we have from time to time, the execution in the quarter was very strong.

    因此,除了您確實注意到的一點點不穩定之外,我們不時會遇到這種情況,本季度的執行非常強勁。

  • - Analyst

  • And then if I can just -- one other numbers question.

  • It looked like in the Q you called out actually Windows server declining as an offset to Intelligent Cloud growth.

    看起來你在 Q 中提到的實際上 Windows 服務器的下降是對智能雲增長的抵消。

  • I'm wondering, we haven't seen that comment in the Q before.

    我想知道,我們以前沒有在 Q 中看到過這樣的評論。

  • Was there something, sort of one-off driving that, or any further detail on that?

    有沒有什麼東西,某種一次性駕駛,或任何進一步的細節?

  • - CFO

    - CFO

  • The way I would think about that one, Walter, is in general our premium or enterprise workloads across Windows, SQL, system center, et cetera grew double digits.

    我認為 Walter 的方式通常是我們跨 Windows、SQL、系統中心等的高級或企業工作負載增長了兩位數。

  • Some of that weakness, frankly, is in the non-annuity and very transactional business, which happened to impact Windows server a bit more than other workloads.

    坦率地說,其中一些弱點在於非年金和非常交易的業務,與其他工作負載相比,它碰巧對 Windows 服務器的影響更大。

  • That is where macro pressure on occasion shows itself first, is in some of that non-annuity lumpiness.

    這就是宏觀壓力有時首先表現出來的地方,在一些非年金的塊狀中。

  • So that's the nature of that comment.

  • Sure, Karl.

  • In Q2, let me talk about two key ones.

    在第二季度,讓我談談兩個關鍵。

  • Number one is really the device launches.

    第一個是真正的設備啟動。

  • We actually launched a very broad portfolio of devices into the quarter with Surface Pro 4, Surface Book, Band 2, and the Lumia 950 and 950XL.

    實際上,我們在本季度推出了非常廣泛的設備組合,包括 Surface Pro 4、Surface Book、Band 2 以及 Lumia 950 和 950XL。

  • Between all of those hardware products as well as our gaming performance, another hardware component in quarter, we did a little better than we had expected in our launches.

    在所有這些硬件產品以及我們的遊戲性能(本季度的另一個硬件組件)之間,我們在發佈時的表現比我們預期的要好一些。

  • Now, when you launch mid-quarter there's always some timing aspect to that.

    現在,當您在季度中期推出時,總會有一些時間方面的問題。

  • But I feel very good about the execution of those and that is a meaningful component of that outperformance.

    但我對這些的執行感覺非常好,這是表現出色的一個有意義的組成部分。

  • The second one, which I talked about, is OEM Pro.

    我談到的第二個是OEM Pro。

  • We did a little better in the quarter than I expected, but inventory levels are a little higher.

    我們在本季度的表現比我預期的要好一些,但庫存水平要高一些。

  • I expect to work through that in Q3.

    我希望在第三季度解決這個問題。

  • And that was a couple of points of impact, for example, on OEM Pro in quarter.

    這是幾個影響點,例如,在本季度對 OEM Pro 的影響。

  • - Analyst

    好,太棒了。

  • Amy, for the third quarter your guide for that business is also pretty good.

    艾米,對於第三季度,您對該業務的指導也很不錯。

  • Is that due to some of these similar factors or are there one or two others that are driving the, what appears to be appears to be, pretty solid 3Q performance in that unit as well?

    這是由於其中一些類似的因素,還是有其他一兩個因素在推動該部門的第三季度表現也相當穩定?

  • - CFO

    - CFO

  • It's similar drivers.

    這是類似的驅動程序。

  • In that segment there is also some topics I tend to not get asked about in Q&A.

    在該部分中,還有一些我在問答中往往不會被問到的話題。

  • Let me take the opportunity to talk about them.

    讓我藉此機會談談他們。

  • Which is one, our search performance continues to be very good.

    其中之一,我們的搜索性能仍然非常好。

  • Frankly, our display business has been quite good.

    坦率地說,我們的顯示器業務一直很好。

  • If you go beyond that, I feel good about our gaming business sequentially.

    如果超出此範圍,我對我們的遊戲業務順序感覺良好。

  • I feel good about the hardware, especially the Surface performance, as we launch into more geos.

    隨著我們進入更多地區,我對硬件感覺很好,尤其是 Surface 性能。

  • If you think about all those components, which actually were very similar to Q2 in terms of their strength, you see them again in Q3.

    如果您考慮所有這些組件,它們的強度實際上與第二季度非常相似,您會在第三季度再次看到它們。

  • So I'm not sure there's anything, quote-unquote, new, Karl, I would say other than that bit of mix between OEM Pro a little bit pulled into Q2 versus Q3.

    所以我不確定是否有任何東西,引用-取消引用,新的,Karl,我想說的是除了 OEM Pro 之間的混合有點拉入第二季度和第三季度。

    至於升級勢頭,我們超過2億活躍設備的事實,我們對此感覺非常非常好。

  • And the pilots, the most -- the place which in the second half is going to be a huge focus for us is the enterprise deployment.

  • So we obviously need to do a great job in continuing to push that and we are focused on it.

    因此,我們顯然需要在繼續推動這一點方面做得很好,我們專注於它。

  • As far as Surface, Surface is playing a increasing role for us in both consumer as well as in the enterprise market.

    就 Surface 而言,無論是在消費者市場還是在企業市場,Surface 都在為我們發揮越來越大的作用。

  • And also, we created a new category of two-in-ones where even our OEMs are finding success, which was one of our strategic objectives of doing the Surface.

    此外,我們創建了一個新的二合一類別,甚至我們的原始設備製造商也在其中取得成功,這是我們製造 Surface 的戰略目標之一。

  • Overall, we do think that this tablets that can replace your laptop is ideally suited for productivity needs, which means it's great for your personal use as well as your use inside of the enterprise.

    總的來說,我們確實認為這款可以替代筆記本電腦的平板電腦非常適合生產力需求,這意味著它非常適合您的個人使用以及您在企業內部的使用。

  • And I think we will expect to see progress on that over the course of the year.

    我認為我們將期望在這一年中看到這方面的進展。

  • What could be driving that 140% increase in adoption relative to Windows 7?

    與 Windows 7 相比,是什麼推動了 140% 的採用率增長?

  • We all thought XP to 7 was a major transition, but it looks like there is another big transition happening here.

    我們都認為 XP 到 7 是一個重大轉變,但看起來這裡正在發生另一個重大轉變。

  • I think there two aspects of it.

    我認為有兩個方面。

  • We have a good operating system release for the core desktop user.

    我們為核心桌面用戶提供了一個很好的操作系統版本。

  • And second, I believe is that we also expand out into new usage patterns.

    其次,我相信我們還會擴展到新的使用模式。

  • If you look at even the thing that we're seeing is in terms of engagement with the browser, or things like Xbox Live, with the store or new device categories like the two-in-one; all I think make it much more possible for users to engage with Windows in more mobile formats and in more productivity scenarios.

    如果您甚至看一下我們所看到的與瀏覽器或 Xbox Live 之類的事物、商店或二合一等新設備類別的互動;我認為所有這些都讓用戶更有可能以更多的移動格式和更高的生產力場景與 Windows 互動。

  • So I think it's the combination of all of that.

    所以我認為這是所有這些的結合。

  • But it starts with having a good product [truth], which Windows 10 does deliver on.

    但它始於擁有一個好的產品 [真相],Windows 10 確實提供了它。

  • Satya, I had a question on commercial Office 365.

    Satya,我有一個關於商業 Office 365 的問題。

  • I don't know if you gave us the number, but I think the last couple of quarters you've talked about monthly active users.

    我不知道你是否給了我們這個數字,但我認為你在過去幾個季度談到了每月活躍用戶。

  • And I'm curious if you have an update on that number.

    我很好奇你是否有關於這個號碼的更新。

  • And then I also was curious about thoughts around ARPU because you introduced the E5 SKU in December.

    然後我也很好奇關於 ARPU 的想法,因為你在 12 月推出了 E5 SKU。

  • Where are we on the path of penetration, if you will, with the higher-value SKUs and the ability to see price list across the base over time?

    如果您願意的話,我們在滲透的道路上處於何處,具有更高價值的 SKU 以及隨著時間的推移查看整個基礎的價目表的能力?

  • Thanks.

  • Yes, [Amy, maybe you can add].

    是的,[艾米,也許你可以添加]。

  • That's right.

    這是正確的。

  • Last time we talked about the 60 million monthly active users for Office 365, and that continues to grow.

    上次我們談到了 Office 365 的每月 6000 萬活躍用戶,並且還在繼續增長。

  • In fact there is always -- I think we also talked about how we get licenses sold and then all subscriptions sold.

    事實上,總是有——我認為我們還討論瞭如何出售許可證,然後出售所有訂閱。

  • And then there is deployment.

    然後是部署。

  • And there's always lumpiness as well as increased deployment that happens once the users migrate.

    一旦用戶遷移,總是會出現混亂和增加的部署。

  • And we'll continue to track that and we'll continue to disclose those numbers as they come along.

    我們將繼續跟踪這一點,我們將繼續披露這些數字。

  • But I feel very, very good in the growth of that.

    但我對它的成長感覺非常非常好。

  • The best proxy for you, really, beyond any numbers we talk about in terms of monthly active is our capital.

    真的,除了我們談論的每月活躍的任何數字之外,對你來說最好的代表是我們的資本。

  • Because if you look at what we do is we spend our capital only to really fuel the growth, or to service the growth of usage across Office 365 and Azure, and you see that increasing.

    因為如果您看看我們所做的是我們將我們的資金用於真正推動增長,或服務於 Office 365 和 Azure 的使用增長,您會看到這種增長。

  • In terms of the margin profile, the entire story of having the E3 mix first to be high and now E5, that is the thing that Amy talked about, which is we now have good premium tier value in all of our products.

    就利潤率而言,E3 組合首先是高的,現在是 E5 的整個故事,這就是 Amy 談到的事情,這就是我們現在在我們所有的產品中都有很好的高端價值。

  • In Office 365 that is most evident with E3 and now E5.

    在 Office 365 中,E3 和現在的 E5 最為明顯。

  • Even in Azure we have things like EMS, we have our data services, even our developer services.

    即使在 Azure 中,我們也有諸如 EMS 之類的東西,我們有我們的數據服務,甚至我們的開發人員服務。

  • I think both of our cloud products, and the major cloud products, have these premium tiers that the mix shift to those, or the addition of those is something that we are focused on and we see in our result.

    我認為我們的雲產品和主要的雲產品都具有這些高級層,這些高級層將混合轉移到這些層,或者添加這些層是我們關注的重點,我們會在結果中看到。

  • - CFO

  • That's right.

  • I would just add that we did see that premium mix go up in Office 365 on the commercial side, as you were noting.

    我只想補充一點,正如您所指出的,我們確實看到 Office 365 在商業方面的高級組合有所增加。

  • Really, E5 only been in market for the last month of the quarter.

    實際上,E5 僅在本季度的最後一個月上市。

  • We are excited about the number of customers that are trying it and that all the value it offers.

    我們對嘗試它的客戶數量以及它提供的所有價值感到興奮。

  • But I would expect that to be a longer-term evolution as opposed to in Q2.

    但我預計這將是一個長期的演變,而不是第二季度。

  • Could I just ask a quick follow-up, Amy?

  • Just on Windows, just so we all calibrate correctly.

    就在 Windows 上,這樣我們都可以正確校準。

  • You've had this benefit from the RPL [columns] from last year.

    您從去年的 RPL [列] 中受益匪淺。

  • Should we think about Windows really now beginning to trend in line with PC units, or can there still be some variability around that?

    我們是否應該考慮現在 Windows 是否真的開始與 PC 單元保持一致,或者是否仍然存在一些變化?

  • Thanks.

  • In my guidance comments I talked a little bit about that.

    在我的指導意見中,我談到了一點。

  • On the Pro side, as I mentioned, we will have a couple point impact that will make a difference between that on the Pro side.

    正如我所提到的,在 Pro 方面,我們將產生一些影響,這將在 Pro 方面產生影響。

  • And I would expect, I think we actually even talked about that last quarter, that the RPL delta which we've seen in Q1 and Q2 would go away in Q3 and Q4.

    而且我預計,我認為我們實際上甚至談到了上個季度,我們在第一季度和第二季度看到的 RPL 增量將在第三季度和第四季度消失。

  • And it would trend much more similarly to the overall consumer PC market.

    它的趨勢將與整個消費 PC 市場更加相似。

  • Good afternoon.

    下午好。

  • I wanted to ask if you have been able to quantify some of the uplift since you've been opening up Office to different platforms like iOS and Android, and now with the recent alliance with Red Hat opening a lot of opportunity to Linux developers?

    我想問一下,自從您向 iOS 和 Android 等不同平台開放 Office 以來,您是否能夠量化一些提升,而現在最近與 Red Hat 結盟為 Linux 開發人員打開了很多機會?

  • Have you been able to quantify how much uplift you've gotten?

    您是否能夠量化您獲得了多少提升?

  • And how do you see this impacting your broader market opportunity?

    您如何看待這會影響您更廣泛的市場機會?

  • - CEO

    - CEO

  • Let me speak to it in generic terms, because I don't think we have quantified it as narrowly perhaps just to address those specific moves we made.

    讓我籠統地說一下,因為我認為我們並沒有把它量化得那麼狹隘,也許只是為了解決我們所做的那些具體舉措。

  • But overall the way we have thought about it is we want to make sure the Office subscription, both to consumers as well as to enterprise subscribers, is valuable across all their devices because it speaks to the vision that we have, which is the cloud is what enables the mobility of the human experience across all of the devices in your life.

    但總的來說,我們考慮的方式是,我們希望確保 Office 訂閱,無論是對消費者還是對企業訂閱者,在他們所有的設備上都是有價值的,因為它說明了我們的願景,即云是是什麼使人類體驗在您生活中的所有設備上的移動性。

  • Because increasingly there will be more devices and we want to make sure that we are adding value.

    因為將會有越來越多的設備,我們希望確保我們正在增加價值。

  • And if we add value in that context you would be more inclined to retain or purchase the Office subscription.

    如果我們在這種情況下增加價值,您將更傾向於保留或購買 Office 訂閱。

  • That is been our goal, and that's working well.

    這是我們的目標,而且效果很好。

  • And it is sort of shows up in our all-up growth.

    它在我們的全面增長中有所體現。

  • Similarly with Azure, we're making sure that as people are tapping into the cloud and moving to the cloud we can get all workloads to be as first-class on Azure.

    與 Azure 類似,我們確保隨著人們進入雲並遷移到雲,我們可以讓所有工作負載在 Azure 上成為一流的。

  • So that is why we have done the deals with Red Hat.

    這就是我們與紅帽達成交易的原因。

  • We even did previously deals with Oracle.

    我們之前甚至與甲骨文打過交道。

  • So Azure is a complete open platform where of course you can run all the Windows workloads, dot-net workloads.

    所以 Azure 是一個完整的開放平台,當然您可以在其中運行所有 Windows 工作負載、點網工作負載。

  • But we're increasingly seeing the open source workloads, the Linux workloads, the Oracle workloads, the SAPs and what have you.

    但我們越來越多地看到開源工作負載、Linux 工作負載、Oracle 工作負載、SAP 等等。

  • And more interestingly, a mix of all of them, because the enterprise is heterogeneous.

    更有趣的是,所有這些都是混合的,因為企業是異構的。

  • It has been heterogeneous.

    它是異類的。

  • We participated only in a portion of it.

    我們只參與了其中的一部分。

  • Whereas with Azure we can participate as the total open platform.

    而使用 Azure,我們可以作為完全開放的平台參與其中。

  • And that is how we thought about it and that is what we are executing on.

    這就是我們的想法,這就是我們正在執行的。
