    現在讓我們轉向展望。

  • For Q3, first, FX.

    對於第三季度,首先是外匯。

  • With the stronger U.S. dollar and assuming the current rates remain stable, we now expect FX to decrease revenue and operating expense growth by approximately 2 points and decrease COGS growth by approximately 1 point.

    隨著美元走強並假設當前匯率保持穩定,我們現在預計外匯將使收入和運營費用增長減少約 2 個百分點,並將 COGS 增長減少約 1 個百分點。

  • With the segments, we anticipate about 2 points of negative FX impact on revenue growth and Productivity and Business Processes and Intelligent Cloud and 1 point in More Personal Computing.

    對於這些細分市場,我們預計對收入增長、生產力和業務流程以及智能雲的負面外匯影響約為 2 個百分點,對更多個人計算產生 1 個百分點的負面影響。

  • Second, continued strong customer demand, healthy bookings growth and increasing revenue annuity mix should drive another solid quarter in our Commercial business.

    其次,持續強勁的客戶需求、健康的預訂增長和不斷增加的年金收入組合應該會推動我們的商業業務又一個穩健的季度。

  • Commercial unearned revenue is expected to decline approximately 2% to 3%, in line sequentially with historic trends.

    商業未實現收入預計將下降約 2% 至 3%,與歷史趨勢一致。

  • We expect commercial cloud gross margin percentage to continue to improve year-over-year as material improvement in Azure gross margin will again be partially offset by the mix of revenue toward Azure consumption-based services.

    我們預計商業雲毛利率將繼續同比提高,因為 Azure 毛利率的實質性改善將再次被 Azure 基於消費的服務的收入組合部分抵消。

  • Third, CapEx.

    第三,資本支出。

  • We expect a sequential dollar increase in capital expenditures as we continue to invest to support increasing demand.

    隨著我們繼續投資以支持不斷增長的需求,我們預計資本支出將連續增加美元。

  • Now to segment guidance.

    現在進行細分指導。

  • In Productivity and Business Processes, we expect revenue between $9.9 billion and $10.1 billion, driven by double-digit growth in Office Commercial and Dynamics as well as healthy LinkedIn growth on a strong prior year comparable.

    在生產力和業務流程方面,我們預計收入將在 99 億美元至 101 億美元之間,這主要得益於辦公室商業和動態業務的兩位數增長以及 LinkedIn 與上年同期相比的強勁增長。

  • We expect Office Consumer revenue growth to continue to be in the low single digits as growth in Office 365 will be partially offset by the continuation of the consumer PC market headwinds.

    我們預計 Office 消費者收入增長將繼續保持在低個位數,因為 Office 365 的增長將部分被消費者 PC 市場逆風的持續所抵消。

  • For Intelligent Cloud, we expect revenue between $9.15 billion and $9.35 billion, with our hybrid demand continuing to drive strong growth in server products and cloud services.

    對於智能雲,我們預計收入在 91.5 億美元至 93.5 億美元之間,我們的混合需求將繼續推動服務器產品和雲服務的強勁增長。

  • Azure growth will continue to reflect the balance between strong growth in our consumption-based businesses and moderating growth in our per-user business.

    Azure 的增長將繼續反映我們基於消費的業務的強勁增長與我們每用戶業務的溫和增長之間的平衡。

  • In More Personal Computing, we expect revenue between $10.35 billion and $10.65 billion, with a shift in revenue mix to our Surface and gaming businesses.

    在更多個人計算方面,我們預計收入在 103.5 億美元至 106.5 億美元之間,收入組合將轉向我們的 Surface 和遊戲業務。

  • In Windows overall, OEM revenue growth should be in the low single digits as we anticipate continued market demand -- market impact from constrained chip supply in Q3.

    在 Windows 整體中,OEM 收入增長應該在低個位數,因為我們預計市場需求將持續——第三季度芯片供應受限對市場的影響。

  • In Surface, continued momentum from Surface Pro 6, Surface Laptop 2 and Surface Go will drive another strong quarter of over 20% growth for Surface.

    在 Surface 方面,Surface Pro 6、Surface Laptop 2 和 Surface Go 的持續發展勢頭將推動 Surface 又一個強勁的季度增長超過 20%。

  • In search ex TAC, we expect revenue growth similar to Q2.

    在不含 TAC 的搜索中,我們預計收入增長與第二季度相似。

  • In gaming, we expect revenue growth to be slightly higher than last quarter.

  • Sales mix will shift to software and services where we expect healthy growth.

    銷售組合將轉向我們預計健康增長的軟件和服務。

  • Now back to overall company guidance.

    現在回到整體公司指導。

  • We expect COGS of $10.35 billion to $10.55 billion and operating expenses of $10.1 billion to $10.2 billion dollars, inclusive of marketing spend that moved from Q2 to Q3.

    我們預計 COGS 為 103.5 億美元至 105.5 億美元,運營費用為 101 億美元至 102 億美元,包括從第二季度到第三季度的營銷支出。

  • Other income and expense should be approximately $50 million as interest income is partially offset by interest expense.

    其他收入和支出應約為 5000 萬美元,因為利息收入被利息支出部分抵消。

  • And finally, we expect our Q3 effective tax rate to be in line with the full year rate of 17%.

    最後,我們預計第三季度的有效稅率將與全年 17% 的稅率一致。

  • Now a few comments on our outlook for Q4 and the full fiscal year, which are unchanged from October.

    現在對我們對第四季度和整個財政年度的展望發表一些評論,這些評論與 10 月相比沒有變化。

  • First on FX.

    首先是外匯。

  • In Q4, assuming rates remain stable, we expect FX to decrease revenue growth by approximately 2 points and COGS and operating expense growth by approximately 1 point.

    在第四季度,假設利率保持穩定,我們預計外匯將使收入增長減少約 2 個百分點,銷貨成本和運營費用增長約 1 個百分點。

  • Second, in Q4, we expect continued strong performance in our commercial cloud business; but as a reminder, we also have several challenging comparisons from the prior year, specifically in on-premise server, LinkedIn, Windows OEM and the strength of a third-party title in gaming.

    其次,在第四季度,我們預計我們的商業雲業務將繼續保持強勁表現;但提醒一下,我們還與前一年進行了一些具有挑戰性的比較,特別是在本地服務器、LinkedIn、Windows OEM 和第三方遊戲在遊戲中的實力。

  • In terms of operating expenses, we continue to expect full year growth of roughly 8%.

    在運營費用方面,我們繼續預計全年增長約 8%。

  • We will continue to invest in strategic growth areas like Azure, GitHub, Dynamics, the Power platform, LinkedIn, Teams and gaming content given our significant growth opportunities, competitive advantage and growing momentum.

    鑑於我們的重大增長機會、競爭優勢和增長勢頭,我們將繼續投資於 Azure、GitHub、Dynamics、Power 平台、LinkedIn、Teams 和遊戲內容等戰略增長領域。

  • We still expect full year operating margin to be up slightly year-over-year, inclusive of the full GAAP impact of GitHub.

    我們仍然預計全年營業利潤率將同比略有上升,其中包括 GitHub 對 GAAP 的全部影響。

  • For CapEx, we continue to expect the growth rate for the year to moderate, even as we meet the high demand for our cloud services.

    對於資本支出,我們繼續預計今年的增長率將放緩,即使我們滿足了對雲服務的高需求。

  • We remain committed to an incremental share buyback beyond the normal quarterly pace that will fully offset stock consideration issued in the GitHub transaction by the end of the fiscal year.

    我們仍然致力於在正常的季度步伐之外進行增量股票回購,這將在本財年末完全抵消 GitHub 交易中發行的股票對價。

  • And finally, we still expect the full year effective tax rate to be roughly 17% with quarterly variability.

    最後,我們仍預計全年有效稅率約為 17%,且存在季度波動。

  • (Operator Instructions) Our first question comes from the line of Keith Weiss with Morgan Stanley.

    (操作員說明)我們的第一個問題來自摩根士丹利的 Keith Weiss。

  • Keith Weiss - Equity Analyst

    Keith Weiss - Equity Analyst

  • A question on Azure, and it's a 2-parter, 1 part for Satya and 1 for Amy.

    Azure 上的一個問題,它分為 2 部分,1 部分給 Satya,1 部分給 Amy。

  • Satya, there's been a lot of press releases of you up on the stage with CEOs from guys like Albertson and Walgreens talking about these large strategic deals that you're doing with these companies.

    Satya,有很多關於你在舞台上發布的新聞稿,來自 Albertson 和 Walgreens 等人的首席執行官談論你與這些公司進行的這些大型戰略交易。

  • Can you help us understand sort of how do these large strategic deals translate into sort of the services being used on Azure changing?

    你能幫助我們了解這些大型戰略交易如何轉化為 Azure 上使用的服務的變化嗎?

  • Like is there a mix shift in the type of services that are supporting these large digital transformations that we should be sort of aware of on a going-forward basis?

    例如,支持這些大型數字化轉型的服務類型是否存在混合轉變,我們應該在未來的基礎上意識到這一點?

  • And to Amy, one of the sort of big investor debates is a lot of suppliers into -- on the big cloud vendors like yourself are talking about weaker shipments into the suppliers.

    對 Amy 來說,投資者爭論的一個大問題是很多供應商進入 - 在像你這樣的大型雲供應商上,他們正在談論供應商的出貨量下降。

  • But you guys have seen very stable growth.

    但是你們已經看到了非常穩定的增長。

  • I mean, Azure growth was dead solid from Q1 to Q2.

    我的意思是,從第一季度到第二季度,Azure 的增長非常穩定。

  • Can you help us understand how the sort of capital intensity of some of these cloud businesses has been changing over time?

    您能否幫助我們了解其中一些雲業務的資本密集度如何隨著時間的推移而發生變化?

  • Satya Nadella - CEO & Director

    Satya Nadella - CEO & Director

  • Sure.

    當然。

  • First of all, thank you, Keith, for the question.

    首先,感謝 Keith 的提問。

  • It is very true that, at this point, we have seen these very large digital transformational efforts and projects that we are partnered with.

    確實,在這一點上,我們已經看到了與我們合作的這些非常大的數字化轉型努力和項目。

  • And they span, quite frankly, all the industries.

    坦率地說,它們跨越了所有行業。

  • I think in the last quarter, you saw in health care, in retail, in financial services.

    我認為在上個季度,你看到了醫療保健、零售和金融服務。

  • In fact, I sort of internally think of them as what our relationships with our traditional OEM partners in the PC ecosystem were.

    事實上,我在內部將它們視為我們與 PC 生態系統中傳統 OEM 合作夥伴的關係。

  • At this point, some of the partnerships we have with customers are of that same magnitude.

    在這一點上,我們與客戶的一些合作夥伴關係具有同樣的規模。

  • And that just speaks to, I think, what's happening in the economy, which is every company is becoming a digital company, and essentially what used to be COGS and operating expense is all going digital.

    我認為,這只是說明了經濟中正在發生的事情,即每家公司都在成為一家數字公司,本質上,曾經是 COGS 和運營費用的東西都在數字化。

  • From a mix of services, it starts always with, I would say, infrastructure, so this is the edge and the cloud, the infrastructure being used as compute.

    從服務的混合開始,我會說,它總是從基礎設施開始,所以這是邊緣和雲,基礎設施被用作計算。

  • In fact, you could say the measure of a company going digital is the amount of compute they use.

    事實上,你可以說衡量一家公司走向數字化的標準是他們使用的計算量。

  • So that's the base.

    所以這是基礎。

  • Then on top of that, of course, all this compute means it's being used with data.

    當然,除此之外,所有這些計算都意味著它正在與數據一起使用。

  • So the data estate, one of the largest things that happens is people consolidate the data that they have and so that they can reason over it.

    所以數據資產,發生的最大的事情之一是人們整合他們擁有的數據,以便他們可以對其進行推理。

  • And that's where things like AI services all get used.

    這就是人工智能服務之類的東西都被使用的地方。

  • So we definitely see that path of -- where they're adopting the layers of Azure.

    因此,我們肯定會看到他們採用 Azure 層的路徑。

  • But it doesn't stop in Azure.

    但它並不止於 Azure。

  • In fact, if you take Walgreens Boots Alliance, it was Microsoft 365 as well as Azure.

    事實上,如果你拿 Walgreens Boots Alliance 來說,那就是 Microsoft 365 和 Azure。

  • In many cases, it's Dynamics 365.

    在許多情況下,它是 Dynamics 365。

  • Any IoT project on Azure leads to a Dynamics field service project in most instances.

    在大多數情況下,Azure 上的任何 IoT 項目都會導致 Dynamics 現場服務項目。

  • So we're seeing the breadth and depth of our cloud offering, which is what we are really architected to have real synergies in the context of what our customers want to achieve, and that's what we are seeing.

    因此,我們看到了我們的雲產品的廣度和深度,這是我們真正的架構,以便在客戶想要實現的背景下產生真正的協同效應,這就是我們所看到的。

  • And one comment before I throw it over to Amy.

    在我把它交給艾米之前有一條評論。

  • Even on that -- our own demand for it, we don't see any change.

    即使在這一點上——我們自己對它的需求,我們也看不到任何變化。

  • In fact, it's very healthy and we think that it'll continue to be healthy.

    事實上,它非常健康,我們認為它會繼續保持健康。

  • And if anything, at our scale, as you can imagine, we are becoming much more efficient in how we use software to utilize the capacity we have.

    如果有的話,在我們的規模上,正如你可以想像的那樣,我們在如何使用軟件來利用我們擁有的能力方面變得更加高效。

  • So we have significant gains in utilization across our estate.

    因此,我們在整個莊園的利用率方面取得了重大進展。

  • So with that, I'll turn over to Amy.

    因此,我將交給艾米。

  • Amy E. Hood - Executive VP & CFO

    Amy E. Hood - Executive VP & CFO

  • And Keith, the thing I would add in addition to Satya's comment about investing and investing materially to make these improvements in performance and utilization, we've always had and seen, as you all have gotten a bit used to, it can be a little bit lumpy quarter-to-quarter, and so we expect a sequential growth into Q3, which is really just a movement that happens from time to time.

    基思,除了薩蒂亞關於投資和實質性投資以提高性能和利用率的評論之外,我還要補充一點,我們一直都有並看到,因為你們都已經有點習慣了,它可能有點季度到季度有點起伏,因此我們預計第三季度會出現連續增長,這實際上只是不時發生的變化。

  • Our guidance, really, in terms of overall capital spend is unchanged from 90 days ago even if the timing of that can move month-to-month.

    實際上,我們在總體資本支出方面的指導與 90 天前相比沒有變化,即使時間可能會逐月移動。

  • Amy, I just wanted to ask you a question about your March quarter guidance.

    艾米,我只是想問你一個關於三月季度指導的問題。

  • The total looks terrific.

    整體看起來棒極了。

  • The only area that might decelerate a little bit appears to be the Intelligent Cloud segment, where 17%, I think at the midpoint, it implies still amazing but down from 20-plus percent the last 3 quarters.

    唯一可能減速的領域似乎是智能雲領域,我認為在中點,17% 仍然令人驚嘆,但低於過去 3 個季度的 20% 以上。

  • So I'm wondering if you could just focus on that for a second and help us understand what some of the variables inside that Intelligent Cloud business are that might be impacting next quarter growth.

    因此,我想知道您是否可以只關注這一點,並幫助我們了解智能雲業務內部的哪些變量可能會影響下一季度的增長。

  • Amy E. Hood - Executive VP & CFO

    Amy E. Hood - Executive VP & CFO

  • Thanks, Karl.

    謝謝,卡爾。

  • The first place to start is obviously FX.

    首先要開始的地方顯然是FX。

  • We've got a 2 point headwind on that range of 16% to 18%, so if you think about that and move your midpoint up to 19%.

    在 16% 到 18% 的範圍內,我們有 2 個逆風,所以如果你考慮一下並將中點提高到 19%。

  • And then I think within that guidance, there's a reasonable amount of confidence that the server products and services KPI will remain quite healthy.

    然後我認為在該指導下,服務器產品和服務 KPI 將保持相當健康的信心是合理的。

    如果你不介意的話,我有一個問題要問薩蒂亞,然後再問艾米。

  • Satya, in the different documents related to the earnings this quarter you have on product launches, et cetera, there's a discussion in there on the Microsoft launch of the Quantum Development Kit.

    Satya,在與本季度產品發布等相關的不同文件中,有關於微軟推出量子開發工具包的討論。

  • Can you give us a bit of color on how you're thinking about quantum computing today, where the -- how soon the opportunity, where is it in the maturation?

    你能否給我們一些關於你如何看待今天的量子計算的色彩,機會在哪裡 - 機會在哪裡,它在哪裡成熟?

  • So the way we think about our overall investment, I think of this as a systems investment because at the scale at which we operate, the Intelligent Cloud and the intelligent edge infrastructure, which you all track as Azure, you got to remember it's the core platform that's powering everything from our gaming ambitions to what we are doing with Microsoft 365, to what we are doing with Dynamics 365 and of course, our third-party business in Azure.

    所以我們考慮我們的整體投資的方式,我認為這是一項系統投資,因為在我們運營的規模上,智能雲和智能邊緣基礎設施,你們都跟踪為 Azure,你必須記住它是核心從我們的遊戲雄心到我們正在使用 Microsoft 365 所做的事情,再到我們正在使用 Dynamics 365 所做的事情,當然還有我們在 Azure 中的第三方業務。

  • So that's the core platform.

    這就是核心平台。

  • And now when you think about the scale at which we operate, it is very important for us to make sure that every new breakthrough that happens in the system architecture that can improve efficiencies in what is distributed computing is something that we stay on the forefront of it.

    現在,當您考慮我們的運營規模時,確保系統架構中發生的每一項可以提高分佈式計算效率的新突破都是我們保持在最前沿的事情,這一點非常重要它。

  • So that's why we have a very long-term view on Quantum, and the things that we did even in this last quarter is take things like the quantum simulator stuff and bring it to Azure.

    這就是為什麼我們對 Quantum 有非常長遠的看法,甚至在上個季度我們所做的事情就是將量子模擬器之類的東西帶到 Azure。

  • In fact, we are seeing very good adoption in scientific labs, in universities and some pharma companies and others who are looking at really building their quantum algorithmic promise long before the quantum computer [cloud] is real so that they are ready to be able to take advantage of that computing resource.

    事實上,我們在科學實驗室、大學和一些製藥公司以及其他正在考慮在量子計算機 [雲] 成為現實之前真正構建其量子算法承諾的公司得到了很好的採用,以便他們準備好能夠利用該計算資源。

  • So that's how we look at it, but you got to remember that before Quantum, there are many byproducts of a quantum effort that have significant implications on how we get more competitive, efficient in terms of providing computing to the world.

    這就是我們看待它的方式,但你必須記住,在 Quantum 之前,量子努力有許多副產品,這些副產品對我們如何在向世界提供計算方面變得更有競爭力和效率產生重大影響。

  • So that's one of the reasons why you hear us talk about quantum as the long-term goal, but you can fully expect us to take a lot of learnings, advances in that roadmap and bring them to market earlier.

    所以這就是為什麼你聽到我們談論量子作為長期目標的原因之一,但你完全可以期待我們在該路線圖上進行大量學習,取得進步並更早地將它們推向市場。

  • Thanks, Mark, for the question.

    謝謝,馬克,這個問題。

  • The only transactional weakness I felt in the quarter at all was what we covered, which was the OEM impact from the chip supply, which was about 1.5 points of growth on MPC, and the Office Consumer impact, which was secondary impact of the PC environment plus some execution challenges we had that I feel really good that we've gotten to the root of and will get handled in H2.

    我在本季度唯一感受到的交易弱點是我們所涵蓋的,即芯片供應對 OEM 的影響,MPC 增長了約 1.5 個百分點,以及辦公室消費者的影響,這是 PC 環境的次要影響加上我們遇到的一些執行挑戰,我感覺非常好,我們已經找到了根源,並將在 H2 中得到處理。

  • Outside of that, our transactional execution was really precisely as we expected.

    除此之外,我們的交易執行確實完全符合我們的預期。

  • Office Commercial actually had a pretty reasonable quarter given some of the impacts we had in Q1, a couple of points of impact of extra growth that we talked about.

    考慮到我們在第一季度的一些影響,Office Commercial 實際上有一個相當合理的季度,我們談到了額外增長的幾個影響點。

  • And the product and services KPI on prem and server was also quite good when we think about the balance and what that represents for hybrid demand.

    當我們考慮平衡以及混合需求代表什麼時,prem 和服務器上的產品和服務 KPI 也非常好。

  • We continue to see good demand on DC -- sorry, data center modernization as well as some of the premium SKUs.

    我們繼續看到對 DC 的良好需求——抱歉,數據中心現代化以及一些高級 SKU。

  • Just wanted to focus on Windows.

    只是想專注於Windows。

  • Amy, I think you've guided to low single-digit growth in Windows OEM revenue for Q3.

    艾米,我認為你已經引導第三季度 Windows OEM 收入的低個位數增長。

  • And just wondering if you can sort of help us bridge that because you also talked about inventory levels, Windows being low in the OEMs as well as some mix.

    只是想知道您是否可以幫助我們彌合這一點,因為您還談到了庫存水平、Windows 在 OEM 中的低位以及一些混合。

  • So maybe kind of help us bridge the gap between your comments about maybe continued storage as a component but -- the revenue growth.

    因此,也許可以幫助我們彌合您關於可能將繼續存儲作為一個組件的評論之間的差距,但 - 收入增長。

  • And then the other side of Windows, the Commercial, obviously it's been super strong, but we're starting to lap some -- there's some pretty big growth numbers Q3, Q4 last year, and then, obviously, there's some accounting change with 606.

    然後是 Windows 的另一面,商業版,顯然它非常強大,但我們開始超越一些 - 去年第三季度和第四季度出現了一些相當大的增長數字,然後,顯然,606 出現了一些會計變化.

  • Maybe give us some color there.

    也許給我們一些顏色。

  • So I guess, one, on the OEM side and then, two, on the commercial side.

    所以我想,一是在 OEM 方面,二是在商業方面。

  • Amy E. Hood - Executive VP & CFO

    Amy E. Hood - Executive VP & CFO

  • Great.

  • Thank you.

    謝謝你。

  • On the OEM side, the way to think about those comments is we do expect inventory levels to likely remain low as we exit the next quarter as well.

    在 OEM 方面,考慮這些評論的方式是,我們確實預計庫存水平可能會在我們退出下個季度時保持在低位。

  • So think about there having -- because your -- we do expect chip supply to remain constrained.

    所以考慮一下——因為你的——我們確實預計芯片供應將繼續受到限制。

  • I don't expect to see any impact from changing inventory levels through the next quarter.

    我預計下一季度庫存水平的變化不會產生任何影響。

  • So I would sort of remove that as one of the mechanisms you're thinking about on overall OEM demand.

    因此,我會將其作為您考慮的整體 OEM 需求的機制之一。

  • I do think what we will see in Q3 is we're expecting a little better performance in the Pro side of the market in terms of seeing growth there, and that's probably helping a little bit.

    我確實認為我們將在第三季度看到的是,在看到增長方面,我們預計 Pro 市場的表現會更好一些,這可能會有所幫助。

  • To your second question on Office -- I'm sorry, on Windows Commercial overall, our real investment -- and you're right, we are starting to reach some tougher comparables.

    關於你關於 Office 的第二個問題——我很抱歉,關於 Windows Commercial 的整體,我們真正的投資——你是對的,我們開始達到一些更嚴格的可比性。

  • But a lot of that comparability, which you referenced, is due a little bit of how it's licensed, which is a lot of this is new and gets recognized more upfront in quarter.

    但是,您提到的很多可比性都歸功於它的許可方式,其中很多是新的,並且在季度中得到了更多的認可。

  • That's going to continue to have some lumpiness still as we go over the years.

    隨著我們多年來的發展,這將繼續存在一些塊狀。

  • As that business continues to grow, it'll get less of that impact.

    隨著該業務的持續增長,它將受到的影響越來越小。

  • The primary driver in terms of billings is how I tend to think about that, has been pretty consistent.

    賬單方面的主要驅動因素是我傾向於如何考慮這一點,一直非常一致。

  • It's been double-digit consistent growth.

    這是兩位數的持續增長。

  • It tends to look a lot like our Office 365 motion.

    它看起來很像我們的 Office 365 動作。

  • It's sold with Microsoft 365.

    它與 Microsoft 365 一起出售。

  • It's about the selling motion of E3 and E5 that we talk about.

    這是關於我們談論的E3和E5的銷售動作。

  • If you could almost take out that 606 impact in the billings team to almost mirror the Microsoft 365 SKUs we sell.

  • It sounds like you feel pretty good or at least stable about the PC outlook for the remainder of this year.

    聽起來您對今年剩餘時間的 PC 前景感覺相當好或至少穩定。

  • But given that Windows is a pretty material driver of profitability at Microsoft, if we do start to see a more protracted decline in PC unit sales and you think about your investments going out through the remainder of this calendar year, are there opportunities to sort of flex down the cost structure at this point to preserve profitability in margins?

    但鑑於 Windows 是微軟盈利的重要推動力,如果我們確實開始看到個人電腦銷量出現更持久的下降,並且您考慮到您的投資將在本日曆年剩餘時間內流出,那麼是否有機會在這一點上降低成本結構以保持利潤率的盈利能力?

  • Or should we assume that much of the investments happening right now are really tied to the commercial cloud and some of the lower margin but higher opportunity businesses and maybe there isn't so much of an offset?

    或者我們是否應該假設現在發生的大部分投資確實與商業雲和一些利潤率較低但機會較高的業務相關,也許沒有那麼多的抵消?

  • Just how should we think about contingency planning if we do see a weaker -- an extended weakening in the global economic climate?

  • See, first of all, I'd say the opportunity for our shareholders when they think about Microsoft has never been better.

    看,首先,我想說,當我們的股東想到微軟時,他們的機會從未如此美好。

  • When I look at every business becoming a digital business and then take that opportunity and map that to our capability, we have the broadest platform of anyone in the tech sector to really help every customer in every country become that digital business.

    當我看到每家企業都成為數字企業,然後抓住這個機會並將其映射到我們的能力時,我們擁有技術領域最廣泛的平台,可以真正幫助每個國家的每個客戶成為數字企業。

  • And we have the business model that aligns with them and their interests and the trust.

    我們擁有與他們以及他們的利益和信任相一致的商業模式。

  • And so therefore, from a secular perspective, we are all in on making sure that we invest in our commercial cloud as well as our investments in things like gaming and going after the opportunity that is there in front of us.

    因此,從世俗的角度來看,我們都在確保我們投資於我們的商業雲以及我們對遊戲等事物的投資,並抓住擺在我們面前的機會。

  • And as you even think about Microsoft 365, the value proposition of Microsoft 365 transcends Windows and Office on Windows.

    當您想到 Microsoft 365 時,Microsoft 365 的價值主張超越了 Windows 和 Windows 上的 Office。

  • We think about the relevance of our applications across all device sockets.

    我們考慮我們的應用程序在所有設備套接字上的相關性。

  • We think about the security, identity management, information protection and all that value across all device sockets, so therefore, I feel very, very good about the product investments and the go-to-market investments we are making to really help our shareholders realize that growth potential that's available in what is going to be an increasingly digital world.

    我們考慮了所有設備插座的安全性、身份管理、信息保護和所有價值,因此,我對我們為真正幫助股東實現而進行的產品投資和上市投資感到非常、非常好在日益數字化的世界中,這種增長潛力是可用的。

  • We know that the signals we get from especially our commercial customers is that there's a healthy demand for the value that exists in Windows 10.

    我們知道,我們從特別是我們的商業客戶那裡得到的信號是,對 Windows 10 中存在的價值存在健康的需求。

  • We're seeing it in terms of deployments on new and existing devices and the security and manageability value prop that comes with a modern device and the experiences that employers want their employees to have and be able to take advantage of, along with some of the end-of-support deadlines that we have talked about, there is still an opportunity for us to remain focused on and execute on through this calendar year.

    我們在新設備和現有設備上的部署以及現代設備附帶的安全性和可管理性價值支撐以及雇主希望其員工擁有並能夠利用的經驗以及一些我們已經討論過支持終止的最後期限,我們仍然有機會在這個日曆年繼續專注和執行。

  • And then our Cosmos DB has become the leading multi-model, multi-region database.

    然後我們的 Cosmos DB 已成為領先的多模型、多區域數據庫。

  • And so therefore, I feel very, very good, as I said even earlier, whenever these customer digital transformation projects start, they start by really getting their data into shape.

    因此,我感覺非常非常好,正如我之前所說的,每當這些客戶數字化轉型項目開始時,他們都會從真正讓他們的數據成形開始。

  • And what that means is you bring all the data in its native format.

    這意味著您將所有數據以其原始格式提供。

  • You need the full comprehensive platform and then the ability to able -- to do things like AI and analytics on top of all of this data.

    您需要完整的綜合平台,然後能夠在所有這些數據之上執行人工智能和分析等操作。

  • So our data platform growth as well as competitiveness is very good and increasing.

    因此,我們的數據平台增長以及競爭力非常好,而且還在不斷增加。

  • And we're the only provider still who can do this in a hybrid way.

    我們是唯一仍然可以以混合方式做到這一點的供應商。

  • That is the consistency between what happens at the edge to the cloud when it comes to data tier becomes even more important as edge scenarios become very, very real.

    當邊緣場景變得非常非常真實時,當涉及到數據層時,在邊緣發生的事情與雲之間的一致性變得更加重要。

  • So therefore, I feel very good about our data story in Citus, which is the company we just bought for the Postgres capability, is something that we are very excited about.

    因此,我對我們在 Citus 中的數據故事感到非常滿意,這是我們剛剛為 Postgres 功能而購買的公司,這是我們非常興奮的事情。

  • In terms of the Azure growth, most of the Azure growth is really driven by consumption.

    就 Azure 的增長而言,大部分 Azure 的增長實際上是由消費驅動的。

  • So this is about getting projects started, making those projects successful, making sure customers feel the value and get the value of their investment.

    所以這是關於啟動項目,使這些項目成功,確保客戶感受到價值並獲得投資的價值。

  • And increasingly, that's why we've been talking a bit about the form of these contracts changing, larger commitments being made that are -- that land in bookings but not in unearned, right?

    越來越多的,這就是為什麼我們一直在談論這些合同的形式發生了變化,做出了更大的承諾——這些承諾是預定的,而不是不勞而獲的,對吧?

  • So it's a bit different mechanism than you think about having in our standard EA, where it goes to the balance sheet and gets earned off.

    因此,它與您在我們的標準 EA 中所考慮的機制有點不同,它進入資產負債表並從中獲利。

  • These are contracts that unless it is used and deployed and a customer gets value from, it does not land into the P&L.

    這些合同除非被使用和部署並且客戶從中獲得價值,否則不會進入損益表。

  • And so the part that looks a little bit more EA-like is the part we've talked about on a per-user basis, right?

    所以看起來更像 EA 的部分是我們在每個用戶的基礎上討論過的部分,對吧?

  • That's something you're going to deploy, whether that's EMS, is the best example.

    這就是你要部署的東西,無論是 EMS,都是最好的例子。

  • And so those have the characteristic you talk about, which is that it really comes from the EA and the recognition is more predictable.

    所以這些都有你所說的特點,那就是它真的來自 EA 並且識別更可預測。

  • But on the IaaS and PaaS layer, that's about our execution each quarter and especially making an impact.

    但在 IaaS 和 PaaS 層,這是關於我們每個季度的執行情況,尤其是產生影響。

  • The way that -- the only other way that, that Azure number, to think about it, is when we've talked about the Azure Hybrid Benefits that exist, those show up actually in the on-prem number, right, even if they ultimately get used on the Azure side.

    唯一的另一種方式是,該 Azure 號碼,考慮它,是當我們談到存在的 Azure 混合權益時,它們實際上出現在本地號碼中,對,即使他們最終在 Azure 端使用。

  • So there actually is some Azure Benefit revenue ultimately that shows "is on-prem."

    換句話說,我們希望確保我們實際上是讓我們的客戶擁有完全有能力的數字公司,無論他們是在零售業,還是在石油和天然氣業,還是在健康方面關心,因為這確實符合我們的長期利益,即確保他們擁有完整的數字能力,然後他們將使用我們雲的訂閱和消費能力。

  • And of course, that means we have a trusted relationship, which is a competitive advantage in a world where some of our competitors have more complex business models, where in some cases they give them platforms, in other cases where they compete with them or tax them.

    當然,這意味著我們有一個值得信賴的關係,這在我們的一些競爭對手擁有更複雜的商業模式的世界中是一種競爭優勢,在某些情況下,他們為他們提供平台,在其他情況下,他們與他們競爭或徵稅他們。

    零售業和許多其他行業的挑戰之一是,與使用其中一種消費者消息傳遞工具相比,實際上擁有他們期望的任何其他企業工具的安全框架的消息傳遞工具是什麼,那麼所有責任都在於企業。

  • So that's the opportunity we see, whether it's -- for all front line, whether it's in manufacturing, whether it's in retail, whether it's in healthcare.

    所以這就是我們看到的機會,無論是 - 對於所有前線,無論是在製造業,無論是在零售業,還是在醫療保健領域。

  • So that's the TAM expansion.

    這就是 TAM 擴展。

  • So in other words, it can be -- start with Teams.

    換句話說,它可以是——從 Teams 開始。

  • It can start with some of our devices in the first-line worker.

    它可以從我們在一線工作人員的一些設備開始。

  • For example, one of the things that we see the most traction for HoloLens is with first-line workers.

    例如,我們看到對 HoloLens 最具吸引力的一件事是與一線工作人員合作。

  • People in manufacturing and other in field service, where they were never issued a standard laptop or even a phone are being issued a HoloLens as their first computing device, and that's just because of the productivity it drives.

    製造業和其他現場服務人員從未獲得過標準筆記本電腦甚至手機,但他們將 HoloLens 作為他們的第一台計算設備,這僅僅是因為它提高了生產力。

  • So those are the kinds of TAM expansion we see across Microsoft 365.

    這就是我們在 Microsoft 365 中看到的 TAM 擴展類型。

  • Our final question will come from the line of Alex Zukin with Piper Jaffray.

    我們的最後一個問題將來自 Alex Zukin 和 Piper Jaffray。

  • Satya, you guys reorganized the sales and customer service organization about 18 months ago quite substantially, and you're now seeing the benefits both around much larger deals and broader deals that we've discussed on this call for your products across the portfolio.

    Satya,你們大約在 18 個月前對銷售和客戶服務組織進行了相當大的重組,現在你們看到了我們在本次電話會議上討論過的更大交易和更廣泛交易的好處,這些交易對整個產品組合的產品進行了討論。

  • I wanted to ask, as the deal complexity increases, are you seeing any impact to your sales cycles as a result?

    我想問一下,隨著交易複雜性的增加,您是否看到對您的銷售週期有任何影響?

  • And is there any impact that you're seeing on sales cycles maybe not from that but from kind of the macro volatility that we've seen in the headlines?

    您是否看到對銷售週期的影響可能不是來自那個,而是來自我們在頭條新聞中看到的那種宏觀波動?

  • I mean, overall, a lot of our transformation, whether it's on the engineering side or on the marketing side or on the sales side, have all been driven by the opportunity we see with the broad platform capabilities we have across all of our commercial clouds, whether it's Azure or Dynamics 365 or Microsoft 365.

    我的意思是,總的來說,我們的許多轉型,無論是在工程方面、營銷方面還是在銷售方面,都是由我們在所有商業雲中擁有的廣泛平台功能所帶來的機會所推動的,無論是 Azure、Dynamics 365 還是 Microsoft 365。

  • So it is true that the deals are much broader, deeper.

    因此,這些交易確實更廣泛、更深入。

  • The relationships with the customers that we have now signed up with span a lot more of our capability and also drives a lot more of their own ambition.

    與我們現在簽約的客戶的關係跨越了我們更多的能力,也推動了他們更多的雄心壯志。

  • So for sure, the sales cycles are different.

    所以可以肯定的是,銷售週期是不同的。

  • But at the same time, you've got to remember, at Microsoft, we do have a lot of different business that we do with the customers, which may include some things like refreshes of their on-premise infrastructure all the way to some very high-ambition digital transformation projects.

    但與此同時,你必須記住,在微軟,我們確實與客戶有很多不同的業務,其中可能包括一些事情,比如更新他們的本地基礎設施,一直到一些非常雄心勃勃的數字化轉型項目。

  • So I would say we are well equipped to deal with that complexity and the variability of what our customers want us to be helping them with.

    所以我想說,我們有能力處理客戶希望我們幫助他們解決的複雜性和可變性。

  • And that's where a lot of the transformation we have done internally is helping us accelerate our Cloud business.

    這就是我們在內部進行的許多轉型正在幫助我們加速我們的雲業務的地方。

  • And I think the way we've seen this in the field is -- and our sales organization has been not unlike some of these Dynamics transactions or the Power platform transactions that require a fundamental understanding of business process and the changes you're trying to implement.

    我認為我們在該領域看到的方式是——我們的銷售組織與其中一些 Dynamics 交易或 Power 平台交易沒有什麼不同,這些交易需要對業務流程和您嘗試進行的更改有基本的了解實施。

  • Those do naturally have longer sales cycles.

    那些自然有更長的銷售週期。

  • Azure has many of those same attributes at the higher end of the complexity and digital transformation Satya's talking about.

    在 Satya 所說的複雜性和數字化轉型的高端,Azure 具有許多相同的屬性。

  • And in these very large transactions, many of which we've been signing recently, where you'll see some of that volatility would be in bookings.

    在這些非常大的交易中,其中許多是我們最近簽署的,您會看到一些波動性將出現在預訂中。

  • But I think, in general, the goal is to have -- and continue to build on that business, but certainly, that would be where the "volatility" would show up.

    但我認為,總的來說,目標是擁有並繼續建立該業務,但可以肯定的是,這將是“波動性”出現的地方。
