  • Now a few comments on the fiscal year.

    現在對財政年度發表一些評論。

  • Thanks, Amy.

    謝謝,艾米。

  • We'll now move over to Q&A.

    我們現在將轉到問答環節。

    接線員,您能重複一下您的指示嗎?

  • (Operator Instructions) Our first question is coming from the line of Heather Bellini with Goldman Sachs.

    (操作員說明)我們的第一個問題來自高盛集團的 Heather Bellini。

  • Heather Anne Bellini - MD & Analyst

    Heather Anne Bellini - MD & Analyst

  • Amy and Satya, if I look at your Intelligent Cloud segment, and in particular the server products and cloud services, those continue to defy gravity a little bit here.

    艾米和薩蒂亞,如果我看看你們的智能雲部分,特別是服務器產品和雲服務,它們在這裡仍然有點挑戰重力。

  • And I'm just wondering if you could just give us a sense of how much maybe the pricing changes that went into effect at the beginning of the quarter that you're in now might have helped drive spending last quarter ahead of them going into effect.

    而且我只是想知道您是否可以讓我們了解在您現在所在的季度初生效的定價變化可能在多大程度上幫助推動了上個季度的支出,然後才生效.

  • But also, can you share with us how the Azure Hybrid Benefit message might also be impacting Azure growth rate?

    而且,您能否與我們分享一下 Azure 混合權益消息如何影響 Azure 增長率?

  • Satya Nadella - CEO & Director

    Satya Nadella - CEO & Director

  • Sure.

    當然。

  • Thanks, Heather, for the question.

    謝謝,希瑟,這個問題。

  • I'll start and then, Amy, you can add.

    我會開始,然後,艾米,你可以添加。

  • I mean, I think what you're fundamentally seeing in that overall KPI is what I think our 2 major advantages we have.

    我的意思是,我認為您在整個 KPI 中所看到的基本上是我認為我們擁有的兩個主要優勢。

  • One is an architectural technology advantage around hybrid, right?

    一個是圍繞混合的架構技術優勢,對吧?

  • So we don't think of hybrid as some stopgap as a move to the cloud.

    因此,我們不認為混合是向雲遷移的權宜之計。

  • We think about it's the coming together of distributed computing, where the cloud and the edge work together for not just the old workloads but most importantly, for new workloads.

    我們認為這是分佈式計算的融合,雲計算和邊緣計算不僅適用於舊工作負載,而且最重要的是適用於新工作負載。

  • And that's where we're seeing some very significant good feedback loops and shaping even our future road map.

    這就是我們看到一些非常重要的良好反饋循環的地方,甚至塑造了我們未來的路線圖。

  • And this is a place where we're leading.

    這是我們領先的地方。

  • The second thing, as you pointed out in your question, is we have a business model advantage.

    第二件事,正如您在問題中指出的那樣,我們擁有商業模式優勢。

  • The Azure benefits are things both for Windows Server as well as for SQL, which I think are very, very unique to us, and you see that.

    Azure 的好處既適用於 Windows Server,也適用於 SQL,我認為這對我們來說是非常、非常獨特的,你看到了。

  • So the combination of the technology advantage and the business model advantage is what I see in the results, whether it's the stand-alone Azure growth, which is what we expected, and it's very strong.

    所以技術優勢和商業模式優勢的結合是我在結果中看到的,無論是獨立的 Azure 增長,這是我們預期的,而且非常強勁。

  • And the server KPI is even stronger.

    並且服務器KPI更加強大。

  • So I think that's at least how I would answer that question.

    所以我認為至少我會這樣回答這個問題。

  • Amy E. Hood - Executive VP & CFO

    Amy E. Hood - Executive VP & CFO

  • And to your specific question, Heather, on the impact of some of the price increases that went into effect in Q2, I'd say it's a couple of points, so I would not sort of over-rotate on that topic.

    對於你的具體問題,Heather,關於第二季度生效的一些價格上漲的影響,我想說這是幾點,所以我不會在這個話題上過度旋轉。

  • The overall number, even if you take a couple of points off that 28%, is a very good performance, I believe, to Satya's point, is the impact you've seen of the very aligned technology road map on the architecture plus the business model that matches it.

    總體數字,即使你從這 28% 中減去幾分,也是一個非常好的表現,我相信,就 Satya 而言,是你所看到的非常一致的技術路線圖對架構和業務的影響與之匹配的型號。

  • The next question is coming from the line of Keith Weiss with Morgan Stanley.

    下一個問題來自摩根士丹利的 Keith Weiss。

  • Keith Weiss - Equity Analyst

    Keith Weiss - Equity Analyst

  • I wanted to dig into capital efficiency here around your cloud assets a little bit.

    我想在這裡深入探討一下您的雲資產的資本效率。

  • This quarter, you talked about Azure gross margins coming in sort of -- continuing to improve really nicely.

    本季度,您談到了 Azure 的毛利率——繼續非常好地提高。

  • CapEx came in, I mean, the growth there is slowing a little bit.

    資本支出進來了,我的意思是,那裡的增長有點放緩。

  • Can you talk to us about sort of what's kind of driving that?

    你能和我們談談是什麼推動了這一點嗎?

  • Is it sort of the move to higher-level services?

    這是向更高級別服務的轉變嗎?

  • Do you get like better pricing against the capital?

    您是否會獲得更好的資本定價?

  • Is this sort of you're just not sort of pouring down as much cement, if you will, in terms of data expansion?

    就數據擴展而言,如果您願意的話,這種類型的您是否只是沒有傾倒那麼多的水泥?

  • Is it like better productivity of the core sort of compute stuff?

    是不是像核心計算類東西的更高生產力?

  • Like can you help us understand sort of how capital intensity is trending in that -- Azure in particular but more broadly in the cloud businesses?

    您能否幫助我們了解資本密集度在這方面的趨勢——尤其是 Azure,但在雲業務中更廣泛?

  • Satya Nadella - CEO & Director

    Satya Nadella - CEO & Director

  • It's a great question, Keith.

    這是一個很好的問題,基思。

  • I would say the way we think about our capital efficiency and I, in fact, added that even to my commentary this time, which is we're building this intelligent cloud, intelligent edge platform to span everything, not only the Azure business but also the future of game streaming to what we are doing at Microsoft 365 or Dynamics 365.

    我想說的是我們對資本效率的看法,事實上,我甚至在這次評論中補充說,我們正在構建這個智能雲、智能邊緣平台來跨越一切,不僅是 Azure 業務,還有遊戲流的未來與我們在 Microsoft 365 或 Dynamics 365 中所做的事情有關。

  • For the first time, what you see across Microsoft is really one platform, which spans all of these businesses and all of the margin structures that are there represented in it.

    第一次,你在微軟看到的是一個真正的平台,它涵蓋了所有這些業務以及其中所代表的所有利潤結構。

  • So that's where, if you think about the thing that Amy and I focus a lot on is the capital efficiency end to end in that context versus getting caught up in even the capital efficiency as measured by any one of these individual pieces because we think that's what Microsoft's uniqueness long term lies.

    所以這就是,如果你想想艾米和我非常關注的事情,那就是在這種情況下端到端的資本效率,而不是被這些單獨的部分衡量的資本效率所吸引,因為我們認為這是微軟長期的獨特之處在哪裡。

  • But that said on Azure, you're absolutely right.

    但這在 Azure 上說,你是絕對正確的。

  • What you are seeing is 2 things: One is things like the Azure Hybrid Benefits as well as the higher-level services that create, I think, both uniqueness as well as good margins long term.

    您看到的是兩件事:一是 Azure 混合權益以及更高級別的服務,我認為這些服務可以長期創造獨特性和良好的利潤。

  • I mean, especially on the database side is one place where I would say from a year-over-year worth of progress, whether it's just Azure database by itself, I mean, that service with full compatibility with SQL Server is a fantastic value proposition for our customers who have huge estates, whether it's the Data Warehouse that's become very, very competitive, the Data Lake.

    我的意思是,特別是在數據庫方面,我想說的是,從一年比一年的進步來看,無論它只是 Azure 數據庫本身,我的意思是,與 SQL Server 完全兼容的服務是一個極好的價值主張對於我們擁有龐大資產的客戶,無論是變得非常非常有競爭力的數據倉庫,還是數據湖。

  • And Cosmos DB, I think, is very unique in its capability.

    我認為 Cosmos DB 的功能非常獨特。

  • Obviously, Amy, you called out some of the positives from the price increase that's coming up.

    顯然,艾米,你從即將到來的價格上漲中指出了一些積極因素。

  • But if I look at just Office 365, both commercial and consumer, just continued just strong growth on both those 2 and especially on the commercial side, there's still that gap between seat growth and revenue growth.

    但是,如果我只看 Office 365,無論是商業版還是消費者版,都只是在這兩個方面繼續強勁增長,尤其是在商業方面,座位增長和收入增長之間仍然存在差距。

  • So if you kind of just think where you are and I guess, in terms of just sort of the life cycle here and obviously, we've got multiple SKUs, maybe just kind of give us an update of how sort of you're thinking about where you stand and especially as you think about the full year here, how you sort of expect these metrics to progress.

    所以如果你只是想你在哪裡,我猜,就這裡的生命週期而言,顯然,我們有多個 SKU,也許只是給我們一個關於你的想法的更新關於你的立場,尤其是當你考慮這裡的全年時,你對這些指標的進展有何期望。

  • Sure, and I'm actually going to expand my comments a little bit because the sales motion is really broader than Office 365.

    當然,我實際上會稍微擴展我的評論,因為銷售動議確實比 Office 365 更廣泛。

  • The sales motion is really about Microsoft 365.

    銷售動議實際上是關於 Microsoft 365。

  • And what that encompasses is both the Office 365 value proposition but also our management and security value proposition with EMS as well as Advanced Threat Protection and Windows value that shows up in that Windows commercial services KPI.

    這既包括 Office 365 價值主張,也包括我們的 EMS 管理和安全價值主張,以及顯示在 Windows 商業服務 KPI 中的高級威脅防護和 Windows 價值。

  • So the bucket of those together, what we're seeing, is many of the workloads and movement to E3 within Microsoft 365 and to E5 continue to have good pull.

    因此,我們所看到的所有這些,是 Microsoft 365 和 E5 中的許多工作負載和遷移到 E3 繼續具有良好的吸引力。

  • There's great customer demand for the value that comes in security and analytics, in meetings, in voice, in collab.

    客戶對安全和分析、會議、語音和協作的價值有著巨大的需求。

  • And I think when you look at the value, I think we feel good about the opportunity to continue to move these users, including new first-line or frontline users that we've not had access before.

    而且我認為,當您查看價值時,我認為我們對有機會繼續轉移這些用戶感到滿意,包括我們以前無法訪問的新一線或一線用戶。

  • We got room on user growth, which as you -- you continue to see that number go up across segments.

    我們在用戶增長方面留有空間,正如您一樣,您會繼續看到該數字在各個細分市場上都在上升。

  • And we've got room in ARPU, which you've continued to see us have.

    我們在 ARPU 中也有空間,你會繼續看到我們有。

  • So in many ways, your question shows itself in Office but the trends are the same if you look at EMS growth or if you were to look at that Windows commercial growth number.

    我只想補充一點,座位增長和 ARPU 增長,其中一件事,即使我們過去可能取得了成功,但我們在滲透所有工作負載方面從未如此成功涉及小型企業,絕對是全球範圍內的。

    但在我開始直播之前,當你想到遊戲時,我要說的最關鍵的是擁有一個遊戲玩家已經在那裡的平台。

  • That means you need to have a platform that has a community around it and monetized as well.

    這意味著您需要有一個平台,該平台有一個圍繞它的社區並且也可以貨幣化。

  • So when you see some of the KPIs and some of the strength you saw in quarter, that's the foundation of Xbox.

    因此,當您看到一些 KPI 和您在季度中看到的一些實力時,這就是 Xbox 的基礎。

  • Xbox has the key gaming community and the monetization capabilities.

    Xbox 擁有重要的遊戲社區和盈利能力。

  • Whether it's first-party games or third-party games, we are best in class in that monetization, and that's what's reflected in the results.

    無論是第一方遊戲還是第三方遊戲,我們在貨幣化方面都是一流的,這就是結果所反映的。

  • So given that structural position, we are going to make sure that we keep increasing the strength of the community.

    因此,鑑於這種結構性地位,我們將確保我們不斷增強社區的力量。

  • You see that already with Minecraft going to all platforms and that increasing the intensity of the community, and you'll see us do more of that.

    你已經看到,隨著 Minecraft 進入所有平台,並且增加了社區的強度,你會看到我們做更多的事情。

  • Obviously, bringing Game Pass to even the PC is going to be a big element of that.

    顯然,將 Game Pass 帶到 PC 上將是其中的一個重要因素。

  • And then streaming is just a natural sequence of it.

    然後流媒體只是它的自然序列。

  • And the advantage we have with streaming is we have a massive cloud advantage.

    我們在流媒體方面的優勢是我們擁有巨大的雲優勢。

  • And so we're going to bring obviously what we're doing with Azure, Azure networking all to bear in ensuring that Xbox and xCloud is one of the best workloads for it.

    因此,我們將很明顯地將我們在 Azure、Azure 網絡上所做的一切都用於確保 Xbox 和 xCloud 是它的最佳工作負載之一。

  • But given you've got a few months under your belt now since it was announced and an opportunity to solicit some feedback from the developer communities that maybe aren't using Microsoft technologies on a regular basis but are very active with GitHub, do you have a sense yet of what the opportunities might be to do outreach to those developers that might be working closely with competing platforms and how closely you can kind of hug them into the Microsoft ecosystem versus just leaving GitHub as sort of a self-sustaining entity now that you have a little bit more opportunity to discuss that with customers in the field?

    我們對 GitHub 的關閉感到非常興奮,坦率地說,我很興奮,因為對我們來說,正如我們所說的,GitHub 不是達到其他目的的手段。

  • It's an end onto its own, which is we have always cared about developer and developer productivity and especially at a time like this when there are more developers outside of the tech industry as the world goes digital.

    這本身就是一個終結,我們一直關心開發人員和開發人員的生產力,尤其是在這樣一個時代,隨著世界數字化,科技行業之外的開發人員越來越多。

  • We think this is perhaps one of the big SaaS opportunities going forward.

    我們認為這可能是未來 SaaS 的重大機遇之一。

  • And so therefore, that's why we want to ensure that everything we do and the #1 priority for Nat and team at GitHub will be all about maintaining that GitHub community, the ethos around developers at the core.

    因此,這就是為什麼我們要確保我們所做的一切以及 Nat 和 GitHub 團隊的第一要務都將是維護 GitHub 社區,以開發人員為核心的精神。

  • That said, I think we will do what is necessary to make sure that our products and services that are on Azure or elsewhere, our tooling, which are already many open source projects on GitHub, we do a good job of earning that developer trust and developer adoption.

    也就是說,我認為我們將做必要的事情來確保我們在 Azure 或其他地方的產品和服務,我們的工具,已經是 GitHub 上的許多開源項目,我們在贏得開發人員的信任和開發人員採用。

  • But we are very grounded in the fact that it has to be earned and not something that we will inherit because of being owners of GitHub.

    但我們非常基於這樣一個事實,即它必須獲得,而不是我們將因為是 GitHub 的所有者而繼承的東西。

  • The second thing I'll also mention is that, to me, the opportunity to win, I would say, new class of developers, we are making progress.

    從某種意義上說,這至少基本上表明我們與亞馬遜並駕齊驅,即使是該社區中代表的精英開發人員。

  • And so when I look at the businesses that we built and the businesses we're investing in and do I feel like this need for tech intensity that Satya talked about that will ultimately drive the desire and need for customers to adopt technology, we're in the right places.

    因此,當我查看我們建立的業務和我們正在投資的業務時,我是否覺得 Satya 談到的這種對技術強度的需求最終會推動客戶採用技術的願望和需求,我們是在正確的地方。

    正如我所提到的,我們實際上在第一季度再次在 Azure 上看到了更好的預訂,就像我們在第四季度所做的那樣。

  • And so obviously, that's certainly encouraging as we look on a go-forward basis for the rest of the year.

    很明顯,這肯定是令人鼓舞的,因為我們展望了今年餘下的時間。

  • But as I think about -- I tend to focus, as you know, on the all-up server and product KPI because the Azure Hybrid Benefits that exist with Windows Server and SQL Server are really valuable to customers if they want to move to Azure on their own terms, it is the single best value proposition to a customer to make a commitment there.

    但正如我所想的那樣,我傾向於將重點放在全面的服務器和產品 KPI 上,因為 Windows Server 和 SQL Server 中存在的 Azure 混合優勢對於想要遷移到 Azure 的客戶來說真的很有價值就他們自己而言,這是對客戶做出承諾的唯一最佳價值主張。

  • And so if we start to focus on one number or the other, I think we're missing the fact that our customer method and go to market is actually through the overall product portfolio.

    因此,如果我們開始關註一個數字或另一個數字,我認為我們錯過了這樣一個事實,即我們的客戶方法和進入市場實際上是通過整個產品組合。

  • And so I tend to probably, as you might imagine, be more confident than I was in coming out of Q4 with a strong Q1 in that overall hybrid demand and Azure signal plus good Azure bookings when I talked about my confidence in high-teens growth in that KPI for the rest of the year.

    艾米,上個季度,您提到您可能會看到商業預訂增長的時間波動性增加,因為您談到對更大和更長期協議的承諾正在增加。

  • But this quarter, the expiry portfolio was flattish, and yet your commercial bookings grew 16%.

    但本季度,到期投資組合持平,但您的商業預訂量卻增長了 16%。

  • You will see volatility in the bookings number for the reasons we've laid out before, the changing expiry base but also large contracts and commitments done by Azure.

    由於我們之前列出的原因,您會看到預訂數量的波動,到期基數的變化以及 Azure 完成的大型合同和承諾。

  • And to your point, we actually saw it this quarter because we again saw quite good performance in some of these larger long-term Azure contracts, which added on a flat expiry base to that 15% bookings growth, which was good.

    就您的觀點而言,我們實際上在本季度看到了這一點,因為我們再次看到其中一些較大的長期 Azure 合同的表現相當不錯,這在 15% 的預訂增長基礎上增加了持平的到期基數,這很好。

  • And so what that means is you'll see some volatility in that, and you're also going to see some volatility in commercial unearned, specifically because whenever you see hybrid strength, it won't land as much in unearned.

    所以這意味著你會看到一些波動,你也會看到商業非盈利的波動,特別是因為每當你看到混合力量時,它不會在非盈利中出現那麼多。

  • So when we -- as the business gets bigger and we do bigger and larger deals and some of them are on-prem and some of them are in Azure, you're going to see volatility, frankly, in both of those.

    因此,當我們 - 隨著業務變得越來越大,我們進行越來越大的交易,其中一些是本地的,其中一些是在 Azure 中,坦率地說,你會看到這兩者的波動。

  • But what I tried to do is think about the impact of all the key data points, which is how do we do in quarter, how do we do on the unearned revenue on the balance sheet and how do we do in overall bookings.

    但我試圖做的是考慮所有關鍵數據點的影響,即我們在季度中如何做,我們如何處理資產負債表上的未實現收入以及我們如何處理整體預訂。

  • And if I triangulate between all those 3 just like I did in Q4, I feel really good about our commercial performance.

    Windows 10 Pro 的實力,我認為,我們已經看到的商業實力,我們繼續看到商業更新的良好跡象。

  • Really security, manageability of modern hardware and software together continues to be a good signal for us.

    現代硬件和軟件的真正安全性、可管理性仍然是我們的一個好信號。

  • We continue to watch the end of support.

    我們繼續關注支持的結束。

  • It's really critical for us, for customers to have a terrific experience as we upgrade them and ask them to move to Windows 10 with a lot of value.

    對我們來說,讓客戶在我們升級他們並要求他們遷移到具有很多價值的 Windows 10 時獲得極好的體驗對我們來說真的很重要。

  • That end of support is about 5 quarters away, so we'll continue to expect good signal and good demand in that Pro segment.

    距離支持結束大約有 5 個季度,因此我們將繼續期待該 Pro 細分市場的良好信號和良好需求。

  • And it should, to your point, match increasingly the market, and we do get to some slightly bigger comps in H2, which I would agree with.

    就你的觀點而言,它應該越來越匹配市場,而且我們確實會在 H2 中獲得一些稍微大一點的組合,我會同意這一點。

  • But I don't want to diminish the signal because the signal is demand is very good for Windows 10 and upgrade to modern hardware when they realize the benefits.

    但我不想削弱信號,因為信號對 Windows 10 的需求非常好,並在他們意識到好處時升級到現代硬件。

  • And so even if you have a tougher comp, I think the demand signal and our opportunity to continue to sell Microsoft 365 in that process and then upgrade to Office 365 as they do deployments is a big opportunity for us to excel.

    因此,即使您有更嚴格的競爭,我認為需求信號和我們在此過程中繼續銷售 Microsoft 365 並在他們進行部署時升級到 Office 365 的機會對我們來說是一個大好機會。
