    毛利率美元增長 15%,營業收入增長 25%,每股收益為 1.82 美元,按固定匯率計算分別增長 32% 和 30%。

  • And we again saw strong demand for our differentiated, high-value hybrid and cloud offerings, resulting in increased commitment to our platform and higher usage.

    我們再次看到對我們差異化、高價值的混合和雲產品的強勁需求,從而增加了對我們平台的承諾和更高的使用率。

  • Overall, our transactional licensing business remained a headwind, although the small and medium business customer segment improved slightly through the quarter.

    總體而言,我們的交易許可業務仍然是逆風,儘管中小型企業客戶群在本季度略有改善。

  • In our consumer business, continued demand for PCs and productivity tools benefited Windows OEM non-Pro, Office Consumer and Surface, and improved advertising market benefited Search and LinkedIn.

    在我們的消費者業務中,對 PC 和生產力工具的持續需求使非專業版 Windows OEM、Office 消費者和 Surface 受益,而廣告市場的改善則使搜索和 LinkedIn 受益。

  • And we saw continued strong engagement across our gaming platform.

    我們看到整個遊戲平台的持續強勁參與。

  • Moving to our overall results.

    轉向我們的整體結果。

  • On the strong prior year comparable and relatively small expiration base, commercial bookings growth was ahead of expectations, increasing 23% and 18% in constant currency, driven by our core annuity sales motions and an increase in the number of large long-term Azure contracts.

    在強勁的上一年可比和相對較小的到期基數上,商業預訂增長超出預期,在我們的核心年金銷售動議和大型長期 Azure 合同數量增加的推動下,按固定匯率計算分別增長了 23% 和 18% .

  • As a result, commercial remaining performance obligation increased 24% and 23% in constant currency to $107 billion, with a roughly equivalent split between the revenue that will be recognized within the next 12 months and beyond the next 12 months.

    因此,商業剩餘履約義務按固定匯率計算分別增加了 24% 和 23% 至 1070 億美元,未來 12 個月內和未來 12 個月後確認的收入大致相當。

  • Commercial cloud revenue grew 31% to $15.2 billion, and commercial cloud gross margin percentage expanded 5 points year-over-year to 71%, driven by the change in accounting estimate for the useful life of server and network equipment assets discussed in our July earnings call.

    商業雲收入增長 31% 至 152 億美元,商業雲毛利率同比增長 5 個百分點至 71%,這是由於我們 7 月收益中討論的服務器和網絡設備資產使用壽命的會計估計發生變化稱呼。

  • Excluding this impact, commercial cloud gross margin percentage was up slightly despite revenue mix shift to Azure and increased usage to support our customers' remote work scenarios.

    排除這種影響,儘管收入組合轉移到 Azure 並且使用增加以支持我們客戶的遠程工作方案,但商業雲毛利率百分比略有上升。

  • This quarter, FX had no impact on revenue growth, more favorable than anticipated due to the weaker U.S. dollar.

    本季度,由於美元疲軟,外匯對收入增長沒有影響,比預期更有利。

  • And in line with expectations, FX had no impact on COGS or operating expense growth.

    由於前面提到的會計估計變化,公司毛利率同比增長 2 個百分點至 70%。

  • Excluding this impact, company gross margin percentage was down slightly, with increasing cloud revenue mix and continued investments such as trial offers and flexible financing options that deliver greater customer value in this challenging environment.

    剔除這一影響,公司毛利率略有下降,雲收入組合增加以及持續投資(如試用優惠和靈活的融資方案)在這個充滿挑戰的環境中提供更大的客戶價值。

  • Operating expense increased 3%, lower than anticipated, driven by greater-than-expected COVID-related savings and investments that shifted to future quarters.

    營業費用增長 3%,低於預期,原因是與 COVID 相關的儲蓄和投資轉移到未來幾個季度,超出預期。

  • And operating margins expanded 4 points year-over-year to 43%, including roughly 2 points of favorable impact from the change in accounting estimate.

    營業利潤率同比增長 4 個百分點至 43%,其中包括會計估計變更帶來的大約 2 個百分點的有利影響。

    在我們基於消費的業務持續強勁增長的推動下,Azure 收入按固定匯率計算分別增長了 48% 和 47%。

    OEM Pro 收入下降了 22%,原因是所有客戶細分市場的商業需求下降,而上年同期則受益於對 Windows 7 的支持結束。本季度末庫存水平處於正常範圍內。

  • Windows Commercial products and cloud services revenue grew 13% and 12% in constant currency, slightly below expectations as continued demand for Microsoft 365 and our advanced security solutions was partially offset by a lower mix of multiyear agreements that carry higher in-quarter revenue recognition as well as continued transactional weakness.

    Windows 商業產品和雲服務收入按固定匯率計算分別增長 13% 和 12%,略低於預期,因為對 Microsoft 365 和我們的高級安全解決方案的持續需求被較低的多年協議組合部分抵消,這些協議的季度收入確認較高以及持續的交易疲軟。

  • In Surface, revenue grew 37% and 36% in constant currency, driven by year-over-year differences in product launch timing and channel purchasing as well as overall PC market demand.

    按固定匯率計算,不含 TAC 的搜索收入下降了 10% 和 11%。

    Xbox 內容和服務收入增長了 30%,第三方交易、Game Pass 訂戶和第一方遊戲的強勁增長。

  • Excluding the impact of these tax payments, cash flow from operations grew 12% as healthy cloud billings and collections were partially offset by higher supplier payments related to the Xbox hardware inventory build.

    排除這些稅款的影響,運營現金流增長了 12%,因為健康的雲計費和收款被與 Xbox 硬件庫存構建相關的更高供應商付款部分抵消。

  • And free cash flow grew 3%, reflecting a significant increase in cash payments for PP&E.

    自由現金流增長了 3%,反映了 PP&E 的現金支付顯著增加。

  • Other income and expense was $248 million, higher than anticipated, driven by net gains on foreign currency remeasurement and investments, including mark-to-market gains on our equity portfolio.

    其他收入和支出為 2.48 億美元,高於預期,這是由於外匯重新計量和投資的淨收益,包括我們股票投資組合的按市值計價收益。

  • Now let's move to our outlook.

    現在讓我們轉向我們的展望。

  • In our commercial business, expanding addressable markets, differentiated value and consistent execution should drive another quarter of increased usage and growing commitment to our platform that drive commercial bookings.

    在我們的商業業務中,擴大可尋址市場、差異化價值和一致的執行應該會推動另一個季度的使用量增加和對推動商業預訂的平台的承諾不斷增加。

  • However, a declining expiry base will impact the growth.

    但是,到期基數下降將影響增長。

  • As always, large long-term Azure contracts are more unpredictable in their timing, and increasing mix of these long-term agreements drives more quarterly volatility in bookings.

    與往常一樣,大型長期 Azure 合同的時間更難以預測,這些長期協議的組合越來越多,導致預訂的季度波動更大。

  • And though trends have improved a bit, growth will continue to be impacted by transactional weakness.

    儘管趨勢有所改善,但增長將繼續受到交易疲軟的影響。

  • A strong prior year comparable that included the end of support for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 as well as transactional strength in Japan across our Office businesses will also impact growth rates.

    上一年的強勁表現(包括終止對 Windows 7 和 Windows Server 2008 的支持,以及我們 Office 業務在日本的交易實力)也將影響增長率。

  • In our consumer business, we expect some benefit from continued consumer PC market growth, though at a more moderated growth rate than last quarter given the traditionally high volume of PCs sold every Q2.

    在我們的消費者業務中,我們預計消費者個人電腦市場的持續增長會帶來一些好處,儘管鑑於傳統上每第二季度售出的個人電腦數量都比上一季度放緩,但增長速度會有所放緩。

  • Commercial cloud gross margin percentage will increase approximately 3 points year-over-year, again driven by the change in accounting estimate noted earlier.

    商業雲毛利率將同比增長約 3 個百分點,這再次受到前面提到的會計估計變化的推動。

  • Excluding this impact, continued improvement in Azure IaaS and PaaS gross margin will be offset by mix shift to Azure.

    排除這種影響,Azure IaaS 和 PaaS 毛利率的持續改善將被混合轉向 Azure 所抵消。

  • And on a dollar basis, we expect capital expenditures to be roughly in line with last quarter to support growing usage and demand for our cloud services.

    以美元計算,我們預計資本支出將與上一季度大致持平,以支持對我們雲服務不斷增長的使用和需求。

  • Now to FX.

    現在到外匯。

  • Based on current rates, we expect FX to increase total company revenue and operating expense growth by approximately 1 point and have no impact on COGS growth.

    根據目前的匯率,我們預計外匯將使公司總收入和運營費用增長約 1 個百分點,並且對 COGS 增長沒有影響。

  • Within the segments, FX should increase Productivity and Business Processes and Intelligent Cloud revenue growth by approximately 1 point and have no impact on More Personal Computing revenue growth.

    在這些細分市場中,FX 應將生產力和業務流程以及智能雲收入增長提高約 1 個百分點,並且對更多個人計算收入增長沒有影響。

  • Next, segment guidance.

    其次,細分指導。

  • In Productivity and Business Processes, we expect revenue between $12.75 billion and $13 billion.

    在生產力和業務流程方面,我們預計收入在 127.5 億美元至 130 億美元之間。

  • In Office Commercial, revenue growth will again be driven by Office 365, with continued upsell opportunity to E5.

    在商業辦公方面,Office 365 將再次推動收入增長,並為 E5 提供持續的追加銷售機會。

  • However, growth will be impacted by the strong prior year comparable noted earlier as well as a decline of approximately 30% in our on-premises business, driven by continued transactional weakness and the ongoing customer shift to Office 365.

    但是,由於交易持續疲軟和客戶持續轉向 Office 365,增長將受到前面提到的強勁上一年可比業務以及我們的本地業務下降約 30% 的影響。

  • In Office Consumer, we expect revenue to grow in the mid-single digits, down sequentially as continued growth in Microsoft 365 subscription revenue will be impacted by the strong year -- prior year comparable and the seasonality of the PC market noted earlier.

    在 Office Consumer 方面,我們預計收入將以中個位數增長,環比下降,因為 Microsoft 365 訂閱收入的持續增長將受到強勁年份的影響——上年可比以及之前提到的 PC 市場的季節性。

  • In LinkedIn, we expect the improved advertising market and continued strong engagement on the platform to drive revenue growth similar to last quarter.

    在 LinkedIn,我們預計廣告市場的改善和平台上的持續強勁參與將推動與上一季度類似的收入增長。

  • And in Dynamics, continued Dynamics 365 momentum will drive revenue growth, though at a slightly lower rate than last quarter in line with the historic seasonality in that business.

    在 Dynamics 中,Dynamics 365 的持續增長勢頭將推動收入增長,儘管增速比上一季度略低,符合該業務的歷史季節性。

    對於智能雲,我們預計收入在 135.5 億美元至 138 億美元之間。

  • In Azure, revenue growth will be driven by our consumption-based business with continued strong growth on a significant base.

    在 Azure 中,收入增長將由我們基於消費的業務推動,並在顯著基礎上持續強勁增長。

  • And in our per-user business, we expect growth rates to moderate further, given the size of the enterprise mobility installed base.

    在我們的每用戶業務中,鑑於企業移動安裝基數的規模,我們預計增長率將進一步放緩。

  • In our on-premises server business, we expect revenue to decline low single digits as demand for our hybrid and premium offerings will be offset by continued transactional weakness and the impact from the prior year comparable noted earlier.

    在我們的本地服務器業務中,我們預計收入將下降低個位數,因為對我們的混合和高級產品的需求將被持續的交易疲軟和前一年可比的影響所抵消。

  • And in Enterprise Services, we expect revenue to be up low single digits.

    在企業服務中,我們預計收入將增長低個位數。

  • In More Personal Computing, we expect revenue between $13.2 billion and $13.6 billion.

    在更多個人計算方面,我們預計收入在 132 億美元至 136 億美元之間。

  • In Windows, on the strong prior year comparable, overall revenue should decline in the high single-digit range.

    在 Windows 中,與去年的可比數據相比,整體收入應該會在高個位數範圍內下降。

  • In our OEM business, we expect another strong quarter in OEM non-Pro, but OEM Pro will again be impacted by the lower commercial demand.

    在我們的 OEM 業務中,我們預計 OEM non-Pro 將迎來另一個強勁的季度,但 OEM Pro 將再次受到商業需求下降的影響。

  • In Windows Commercial products and cloud services, we expect healthy annuity billings growth, driven by the continued demand for our advanced security solutions.

    在 Windows 商業產品和雲服務中,我們預計在對我們先進的安全解決方案的持續需求的推動下,年金賬單將實現健康增長。

  • However, growth will be materially impacted by a lower mix of multiyear agreements that carry higher in-quarter revenue recognition, primarily due to the declining expiry base and a large deal in the prior year.

    然而,增長將受到較低的多年協議組合的重大影響,這些協議具有較高的季度收入確認,主要是由於到期基數下降和上一年的大筆交易。

  • In Surface, revenue will be relatively unchanged, impacted by the year-over-year timing differences of product life cycle transitions noted earlier.

    在 Surface 中,受前面提到的產品生命週期轉換的逐年時間差異的影響,收入將相對保持不變。

  • In Search ex TAC, we expect revenue to decline in the mid- to high single-digit range.

    在 Search ex TAC 中,我們預計收入將在中高個位數範圍內下降。

  • And in gaming, we expect revenue growth in the high 20% range.

    在遊戲方面,我們預計收入增長將達到 20% 的高位。

  • We expect very strong demand, following the launch of our next-generation Xbox Series X and S consoles, driving supply-constrained hardware revenue growth of approximately 40%.

    我們預計隨著下一代 Xbox Series X 和 S 遊戲機的推出,需求將非常強勁,這將推動供應受限的硬件收入增長約 40%。

  • We also expect negative gross margin impact from console sales this quarter as we invest against the growing lifetime value of the platform.

    我們還預計本季度遊戲機銷售會對毛利率產生負面影響,因為我們會針對平台不斷增長的生命週期價值進行投資。

  • Xbox content and services revenue should grow in the low 20% range, with strong engagement and continued momentum in Game Pass subscribers.

    Xbox 內容和服務收入應該會在 20% 的較低範圍內增長,遊戲通行證用戶的參與度和持續增長勢頭強勁。

  • As a reminder, our outlook does not include ZeniMax, which we still expect to close in the second half of the fiscal year.

    提醒一下,我們的展望不包括 ZeniMax,我們仍預計將在本財年下半年結束。

  • Now back to company guidance.

    現在回到公司指導。

  • We expect COGS of $13.75 billion to $13.95 billion and operating expense of $11.4 billion to $11.5 billion.

    我們預計銷貨成本為 137.5 億美元至 139.5 億美元,運營費用為 114 億美元至 115 億美元。

  • In other income and expense, interest income and expense should offset each other.

    在其他收入和費用中,利息收入和費用應相互抵消。

  • And finally, we expect our Q2 tax rate to be approximately 16%.

    最後,我們預計第二季度的稅率約為 16%。

  • In closing, I'd like to share a few thoughts as we look beyond the next quarter.

    最後,我想在我們展望下一季度之後分享一些想法。

  • As digital transformation accelerates and our sales teams and partners continue to execute well in serving customers, our high-value solutions should drive full year double-digit revenue growth in our commercial segments even in a challenging and competitive environment.

    隨著數字化轉型的加速以及我們的銷售團隊和合作夥伴繼續在為客戶服務方面表現出色,即使在充滿挑戰和競爭激烈的環境中,我們的高價值解決方案也應能推動我們商業部門全年實現兩位數的收入增長。

  • Given our significant ambition, desire to enable our customers' visions for their future and the opportunity that creates, we will continue to invest in high-growth markets and the strategic areas that will further enhance our position.

    鑑於我們雄心勃勃,渴望實現客戶對未來的願景和創造的機會,我們將繼續投資於高增長市場和戰略領域,以進一步提升我們的地位。

  • Is this increased preference for public cloud going to more permanently impair server and cloud -- I'm sorry, server and tools growth in the on-premise environment?

    這種對公共雲的偏好增加是否會更永久地損害服務器和雲——對不起,服務器和工具在本地環境中的增長?

  • Or is there a potential for this to be coming back to the low to mid-single-digit growth that we've seen historically once we pass these tough comps?

    或者,一旦我們通過了這些艱難的比賽,是否有可能回到我們歷史上看到的低到中個位數的增長?

  • Satya Nadella - CEO & Director

    Satya Nadella - CEO & Director

  • Let me start, and Keith, thanks for the question, and Amy, you can add to it.

    讓我開始,基思,謝謝你的問題,艾米,你可以補充一下。

  • A couple of things, Keith.

    有幾件事,基思。

  • One is the approach we have always taken is that distributed computing will remain distributed, so the cloud and the edge is what will be the distributor fabric for applications.

    一種是我們一直採用的方法是分佈式計算將保持分佈式,因此云和邊緣將成為應用程序的分發結構。

  • So if you look at where our growth is coming from for the all up number in Intelligent Cloud, it's coming from the infrastructure layer, the flexibility that we have around hybrid deployment, things like Azure Arc, very differentiated.

    因此,如果你看看我們的增長來自於智能雲的全部增長,它來自基礎設施層,我們在混合部署方面的靈活性,比如 Azure Arc,非常差異化。

  • Same thing with data, that's one of the big feature innovations even in the last quarter was the ability to deploy, for example, Azure data in any cloud, including the edge.

    數據也是如此,即使在上個季度,最大的功能創新之一就是能夠在任何云中部署 Azure 數據,包括邊緣。

  • So that deployment drives application preference for our infrastructure.

    因此,這種部署會推動應用程序對我們的基礎設施的偏好。

  • The 2 other things that are happening is developers, whether it's lift/shift, modernized motion or just new applications because of what they're doing on GitHub or Azure DevOps or VS Code, choosing Azure services, and with Power Platform, Dynamics or M 365 because a lot of these logic apps that people build are about stitching together extensions of workflows of multiple SaaS apps.

    正在發生的另外兩件事是開發人員,無論是提升/移位、現代化運動還是只是新應用程序,因為他們在 GitHub 或 Azure DevOps 或 VS Code 上所做的事情,選擇 Azure 服務,以及使用 Power Platform、Dynamics 或 M 365,因為人們構建的許多邏輯應用程序都是關於將多個 SaaS 應用程序的工作流擴展拼接在一起。

  • So we have all 3 of these trends leading to more intense usage of infrastructure data and the application PaaS services.

    因此,我們擁有所有這 3 個趨勢,導致基礎設施數據和應用程序 PaaS 服務的使用更加頻繁。

  • And so that's how we view it.

    這就是我們的看法。

  • I don't sort of look at each quarter what's happening on server plus cloud.

    我不關注每個季度在服務器和雲上發生的事情。

  • I look at the holistic deployment options that our customers need for their increasingly distributed applications.

    我著眼於我們的客戶對其日益分散的應用程序所需的整體部署選項。

  • And so that's sort of what I see.

    這就是我所看到的。

  • And Amy, if you want to add to it, please go ahead.

    艾米,如果你想添加它,請繼續。

  • Amy E. Hood - Executive VP & CFO

    Amy E. Hood - Executive VP & CFO

  • Sure.

    當然。

  • And Keith, maybe I can help a little bit.

    還有基思,也許我能幫上點忙。

  • In general, I think it's easier if you think about Azure plus the annuity business as being this durable, hybrid, edge, cloud value that Satya is talking about.

    總的來說,我認為如果您將 Azure 和年金業務視為 Satya 所說的持久、混合、邊緣、雲價值,會更容易。

  • And we continued to see very strong and consistent performance across those things in terms of renewal rates, the strength of premium, the strength of hybrid value props.

    在續訂率、保費強度、混合價值道具的強度方面,我們繼續看到這些方面非常強勁和一致的表現。

  • And so that aspect, Keith, because of the reasons Satya mentioned, we don't see nearly as much change in that.

    因此,基思,由於薩蒂亞提到的原因,我們看不到這方面的變化太大。

  • It's frankly why you see bookings numbers that are very good.

    坦率地說,這就是為什麼您會看到非常好的預訂數字。

  • It's why you see RPO both less than 12 months, think about that as our core annuity motion, versus longer than 12 months, which are these Azure longer contracts all having very healthy growth.

    這就是為什麼您看到 RPO 都少於 12 個月,將其視為我們的核心年金議案,而不是超過 12 個月,這些 Azure 更長的合同都具有非常健康的增長。

  • So then what you're left with is a small component of the business, which is that non-annuity/what we call transactional business, which is onetime purchases all recognized in-quarter.

    因此,您剩下的只是業務的一小部分,即非年金/我們稱之為交易業務,即一次性購買全部在季度內確認。

  • And because of that, it does move around a lot more.

    正因為如此,它確實移動得更多。

  • And it helped obviously when we had end of support, we were transparent about that.

    當我們終止支持時,它顯然有所幫助,我們對此保持透明。

  • And then it hurts more both in this macro environment but more so just because of some tough comparables.

    然後在這個宏觀環境中傷害更大,但更多的是因為一些艱難的可比性。

  • And so while we will continue to have that through a few quarters and we'll expect it to bounce around a bit because of the nature of 100% in-quarter recognition, the fundamentals of bookings, renewals, premium and hybrid value as well as Azure consumption feel far more consistent than not is how I would answer that.

    因此,儘管我們將在幾個季度內繼續保持這種狀態,並且由於 100% 季度認可的性質、預訂、續訂、溢價和混合價值的基本面以及我將如何回答這個問題,Azure 的消費感覺遠比沒有的一致。

  • Amy, I had a question.

  • You just made some really strong robust growth comments on the top line as you look out into the future, but you also invested, rightly so, your desire to invest for your customers in key growth areas.

    當您展望未來時,您剛剛對收入做出了一些非常強勁的增長評論,但您也投資了,正確的,您希望在關鍵增長領域為您的客戶進行投資。

  • I think one of the questions people might be wondering is how do we think about how that might impact operating margin trajectory.

    我認為人們可能想知道的問題之一是我們如何考慮這可能會如何影響營業利潤率軌跡。

  • And should we interpret your comments that obviously growth remains really strong and we're investing for growth but there's an eye on profitability as well?

    我們是否應該解釋您的評論,即顯然增長仍然非常強勁,我們正在為增長而投資,但也關注盈利能力?

  • Amy E. Hood - Executive VP & CFO

  • Thanks, Heather.

    謝謝,希瑟。

  • If you take a step back, the comments are really about the consistency and the opportunity in front of us.

    如果您退後一步,評論實際上是關於我們面前的一致性和機會。

  • And so in our commercial segments, where we're seeing consistent annuity execution, we're seeing increasing usage, we're seeing good deployment.

    因此,在我們的商業領域,我們看到了一致的年金執行,我們看到了越來越多的使用,我們看到了良好的部署。

  • And frankly, the portfolio that Satya went through in his comments, if you go section by section, it's talking about amazing like TCO advantages that the portfolio offers, even for our commercial customers who are looking for ways to accelerate but control costs.

    坦率地說,Satya 在他的評論中介紹的產品組合,如果你逐節介紹,它談論的是該產品組合提供的驚人的 TCO 優勢,即使對於我們正在尋找加速但控製成本的方法的商業客戶也是如此。

  • And so for us, when you see operating environments like that where you see the opportunity, you feel good about your portfolio, you can feel -- and we basically feel good about our complete stack but at a high value.

    所以對我們來說,當你看到這樣的運營環境時,你看到了機會,你對你的投資組合感覺很好,你可以感覺到——我們基本上對我們的完整堆棧感覺很好,但價值很高。

  • What we want to make sure we do, and my comments were around those, are really about making it clear that we intend to continue to go after the opportunity we see.

    我們想要確保我們所做的,我的評論是圍繞著這些的,實際上是為了明確表明我們打算繼續追求我們看到的機會。

  • And so of course, we're always thoughtful about how we invest.

    因此,當然,我們總是在考慮如何投資。

  • But in these areas where we see such strong signal, I do expect us to continue to focus.

    但在我們看到如此強烈信號的這些領域,我確實希望我們繼續關注。

  • And at the operating margins, a real focus will also just be -- as we enter the second half of the year, it's obviously impacted by some of the hardware investments that we're making as well as the overall Windows numbers.

    在營業利潤率方面,真正的重點也將是——隨著我們進入下半年,它顯然受到我們正在進行的一些硬件投資以及整體 Windows 數量的影響。

  • So that's probably the best way to think about it, I suppose.

    所以這可能是最好的思考方式,我想。

  • I mean, overall, what we have learned over, whatever, the last 9 months or so, is the best way for any business to ensure both resilience as well as pivot and transform and reimagine how to work with some of the constraints is digital tech.

    我的意思是,總的來說,我們在過去 9 個月左右所學到的東西,是任何企業確保彈性以及樞轉和轉型以及重新構想如何應對某些限制的最佳方式是數字技術.

  • So whether it's infrastructure, whether it's data or on SaaS, it's, in fact, increased adoption rate.

    因此,無論是基礎設施、數據還是 SaaS,實際上都提高了採用率。

  • And that's what you see, like where you see it in Power Apps, for example, in many cases, even the smallest of businesses need to be able to deploy a solution quickly for some workflow that allows them, say, for example, to do curbside pickup if you're a retailer and a small business.

    這就是您所看到的,就像您在 Power Apps 中看到的那樣,例如,在許多情況下,即使是最小的企業也需要能夠為某些工作流快速部署解決方案,例如,如果您是零售商和小型企業,路邊取貨。

  • But they were able to build that easily and deploy it.

    但他們能夠輕鬆構建並部署它。

  • So that's what we are seeing, which is increasing adoption and use.

  • And on the supply chain side, we have worked through.

    在供應鏈方面,我們已經解決了。

  • We did get -- we had the initial rush.

  • We did have demand surges that needed us to sort of work through on our supply chain.

  • I just wanted to focus in on the Office 365 Commercial, and Amy, thank you for that update that you announced, 70% penetrated.

    我只是想專注於 Office 365 商業版,艾米,感謝您宣布的更新,70% 已滲透。

    所以我猜有兩個問題:一個是,你能幫我們解開安裝基數的增長嗎?

  • Obviously, with those 2 percentages and the numbers you gave, that's pretty healthy installed base growth.

    顯然,根據這 2 個百分比和您給出的數字,安裝基數的增長非常健康。

  • And then as a follow-up to that, one of the things you mentioned too is obviously the continued migration to E5.

  • Let me break down your question, Phil, because I want to make sure that the comment on 70% is really thought about in the right way.

    讓我分解你的問題,菲爾,因為我想確保對 70% 的評論真的以正確的方式考慮。

  • It's 70% of the current installed base.

    它是當前安裝基數的 70%。

  • And so one of the key components of that is we have, as you said, continued to see installed base growth.

    因此,正如您所說,其中一個關鍵組成部分是我們繼續看到安裝基數增長。

  • And whether that's adding first-line worker scenarios, whether it's increasing in small business, there's so many ways for us to continue to add tremendous value, continue to grow the installed base.

    無論是增加一線工人場景,還是增加小企業,我們都有很多方法可以繼續增加巨大的價值,繼續擴大安裝基礎。

  • But we are pleased that we have 70% on more modern experiences obviously of Office 365 in terms of adding to productivity and being able to continue to offer, to your point, some of this motion on E3 and E5.

    但我們很高興我們在 Office 365 的更現代體驗方面擁有 70% 的份額,這顯然可以提高生產力,並且能夠繼續在 E3 和 E5 上提供一些此類動議。

  • To that question, there's actually room, Phil, on both of those motions.

    對於這個問題,菲爾,這兩個議案實際上都有空間。

  • We've got room to continue to have people move to E3.

    我們有空間繼續讓人們轉移到 E3。

  • We've got room to continue, obviously.

    顯然,我們還有繼續的空間。

  • And it's not just voice, although that is an important component.

    這不僅僅是聲音,儘管這是一個重要的組成部分。

  • The really exciting value in E5 is that it offers security value.

    E5 真正令人興奮的價值在於它提供了安全價值。

  • It offers compliance value.

    它提供合規價值。

  • It offers voice.

    它提供語音。

  • There's analytics value.

    有分析價值。

  • And so the reality is all of them are becoming more meaningful, especially in time to value and TCO.

    因此,現實情況是它們都變得更有意義,尤其是在價值實現時間和 TCO 方面。

  • The one thing also that I sometimes think gets missed when we talk about Office 365 is one of the other key motions that's important around this group and business is the ability for us to continue to add the Microsoft 365 components, whether that's EMS or Windows security value.

    當我們談論 Office 365 時,我有時認為會忽略的一件事是圍繞該組和業務重要的其他關鍵動作之一是我們能夠繼續添加 Microsoft 365 組件,無論是 EMS 還是 Windows 安全價值。

  • And so while we're excited about the installed base and the progress, it also creates a good opportunity for us to continue to move people to the Microsoft 365 SKU and not just up through the SKUs of Office.

    因此,雖然我們對安裝基礎和進展感到興奮,但它也為我們創造了一個很好的機會,可以繼續將人們轉移到 Microsoft 365 SKU,而不僅僅是通過 Office 的 SKU。

    艾米,鑑於您對預訂波動的評論,我想問您一個問題。

  • I wanted to ask about some of the Azure trends, in particular, that we can't see such as the level of Azure migration activity that might still be in the planning phase, or if deals have been signed, how you feel about the Azure backlog that will convert to revenues over the next year or so and whether some of the Azure go-lives have been pushed by a quarter or 2, given the uncertain environment.

    我想詢問一些 Azure 趨勢,特別是我們無法看到的 Azure 遷移活動水平,可能仍處於計劃階段,或者如果已簽署交易,您對 Azure 的感覺如何未來一年左右將轉化為收入的積壓訂單,以及鑑於不確定的環境,某些 Azure 的上線時間是否推遲了四分之一或兩個季度。

  • Karl, it's a good question.

    卡爾,這是個好問題。

  • Maybe let me break down some of the components.

    也許讓我分解一些組件。

  • When you think about Azure and some of these longer-term sort of deals I was discussing, the longer-term bigger deals, when I talk about them being more volatile, it's just -- it's more that we don't really focus on the exact moment in time that they get done.

    當你想到 Azure 和我正在討論的一些長期交易時,長期較大的交易,當我談到它們更加不穩定時,只是 - 更多的是我們並沒有真正關注他們完成的確切時間。

  • They tend to be partnerships that we're really working through.

    它們往往是我們真正正在努力的伙伴關係。

  • They take longer for planning.

    他們需要更長的時間來規劃。

  • And so these types of partnerships, it's really about making sure we make them successful far more than which quarter that they arrive in.

    所以這些類型的合作夥伴關係,實際上是為了確保我們讓他們成功的遠遠超過他們到達的哪個季度。

  • And so that does just result in a little bit more volatility in that bookings number.

    因此,這確實會導致該預訂數量的波動更大。

  • Now in terms -- so I would separate that from the question you're asking, which I think is great around how much of that creates a funnel of opportunity for us in terms of converting those plans as well as maybe hybrid benefits that exist today in our good annuity performance on-prem.

    現在就術語而言 - 所以我會將其與您提出的問題分開,我認為這對於我們在轉換這些計劃以及可能存在的混合利益方面創造了多少機會非常有用在我們良好的本地年金表現中。

  • So for us, that is about investing in customer success.

    所以對我們來說,這就是投資於客戶成功。

  • And so for us, that's been one of the important investments we've made over the past couple of years and why we continue to invest in everything from skilling at our customers, up through training, up through deployment and really make sure that each project is successful and has good value.

    所以對我們來說,這是我們在過去幾年中所做的重要投資之一,也是為什麼我們繼續投資於從客戶技能到培訓,再到部署的所有方面,並真正確保每個項目是成功的並且具有良好的價值。

  • And so when you think about that, think about the annuity on-prem business as well as these longer-term Azure contracts as being effectively a book of business to continue to work and convert into as you're talking about this consumption.

    因此,當您考慮到這一點時,請考慮將年金本地業務以及這些長期 Azure 合同視為有效的業務書籍,以便在您談論這種消費時繼續工作並轉化為業務。

  • Now within a quarter, the consumption obviously has other impacts.

    現在在一個季度內,消費顯然還有其他影響。

  • Most of it, obviously is it's used and it's recognized in-quarter.

    其中大部分,顯然是使用過的,並且在季度內得到認可。

  • You'll see that number, as you know, jump around a little bit from quarter-to-quarter.

    如您所知,您會看到該數字每季度略有跳躍。

  • Some of that is the per-user that we've talked about.

    其中一些是我們已經討論過的每個用戶。

  • Things like EMS can have a little bit more in-quarter recognition.

    像 EMS 這樣的東西可以在季度內獲得更多的認可。

  • They can be impacted by an expiry base.

    它們可能會受到到期基數的影響。

  • And so you'll see that number -- the Azure KPI jump around a little bit more than just from consumption.

    所以你會看到這個數字——Azure KPI 的跳躍幅度不僅僅是來自消費。

  • And you can have things like overages land on an annual basis as opposed to maybe a monthly basis, and that can also make the number jump around a little bit.

    而且您可以按年而不是按月進行超額使用之類的事情,這也可以使這個數字稍微跳躍一下。

  • So while the funnel and the conversion is absolutely how we think about seeing strong bookings and a strong especially longer than 12-month RPO balance, we certainly also sort of work that meticulously at the customer level to get projects to success.

    因此,雖然漏斗和轉換絕對是我們如何看待強勁的預訂和強勁的特別是超過 12 個月的 RPO 餘額,但我們當然也在客戶層面進行了細緻的工作,以使項目取得成功。

  • Satya Nadella - CEO & Director

  • Just one thing I'd add is, to Amy's earlier comment about our customer success motion, when we look at the app portfolio for any customer, we look to see, first of all, which apps do they want to just retire, which apps do they want to modernize and move to the cloud or new cloud starts.

    我要補充的一件事是,在 Amy 之前關於我們的客戶成功動議的評論中,當我們查看任何客戶的應用程序組合時,我們首先希望看到他們希望哪些應用程序退出,哪些應用程序他們是想要現代化並遷移到雲還是開始新的雲。

  • And then we use all of what is there on our stack to help them, right?

    然後我們使用堆棧中的所有內容來幫助他們,對嗎?

  • So it could be a Power App that gets built, which is more part of Office 365 or Microsoft 365.

    因此,它可能是構建的 Power App,它更多地是 Office 365 或 Microsoft 365 的一部分。

  • It could be a SaaS application that is in Dynamics module that's better for them because that's a faster time to value.

    它可能是 Dynamics 模塊中的 SaaS 應用程序,這對他們來說更好,因為這樣可以更快地實現價值。

  • And then -- and sometimes you build in Azure.

    然後——有時你在 Azure 中構建。

  • So we look at it holistically across all of the tech stack versus any one thing because that's what we think -- what differentiates Microsoft and creates preference for Microsoft long term.

    因此,我們從所有技術堆棧與任何一件事上整體看待它,因為這就是我們的想法——讓微軟與眾不同並長期創造對微軟的偏好。

  • Sure.

  • Thank you so much for the question.

  • Yes, Teams is very exciting to us because unlike anything else that we have done at the application layer, it's literally like a shell and has a platform effect because it is meetings, it's chat, it's collaboration as well as business process applications integrate into Teams, so that scaffolding richness literally makes it a very robust platform.

    是的,Teams 對我們來說非常令人興奮,因為與我們在應用程序層所做的任何其他事情不同,它實際上就像一個外殼並具有平台效應,因為它是會議、聊天、協作以及業務流程應用程序集成到 Teams 中,因此腳手架的豐富性實際上使其成為一個非常強大的平台。

  • And so we are seeing significant growth.

    因此,我們看到了顯著的增長。

  • You saw -- we talked about the usage growth, but we're also seeing significant growth of usage across all these modalities inside of Teams.

    你看到了——我們談到了使用量的增長,但我們也看到 Teams 內所有這些模式的使用量顯著增長。

  • But the other aspect which I referenced in my remarks is when you look at Microsoft 365 all up, Teams is bolstering all-up growth, right, because meetings are important, but they're transactional.

    但是我在評論中提到的另一個方面是,當您全面了解 Microsoft 365 時,Teams 正在支持全面增長,對,因為會議很重要,但它們是事務性的。

  • Work happens before meetings, during meetings and after meetings.

    工作發生在會議之前、會議期間和會議之後。

  • So that ability to have the workflow completely stitched together is where Microsoft 365 really stands out.

    因此,將工作流完全縫合在一起的能力是 Microsoft 365 真正脫穎而出的地方。

  • So that reinforcing effect of Teams by itself and then Microsoft 365 in conjunction with Teams is where you'll see a significant amount of usage growth more so than individual tools of the past even.

    因此,Teams 本身的增強效果以及 Microsoft 365 與 Teams 的結合使您會看到使用量的顯著增長,甚至比過去的單個工具還要多。

    您設想的關鍵驅動因素是什麼,甚至可能與此相關的主要風險是什麼——這些評論是關於您對 Windows 的持久增長的設想?

  • So maybe I can start, Amy, and then you can add to it.

    所以也許我可以開始,艾米,然後你可以添加它。

  • If anything, again, the last 9 months or so have proven that when it comes to Windows and PCs, they become mission-critical because when it comes to remote learning, remote work and any type of activity and productivity, in particular, depends on having PCs and applications on PCs.

    如果有的話,過去 9 個月左右再次證明,當涉及到 Windows 和 PC 時,它們變得至關重要,因為在涉及遠程學習、遠程工作以及任何類型的活動和生產力時,尤其取決於在 PC 上擁有 PC 和應用程序。

  • So we are doubling down on it.

    所以我們正在加倍努力。

  • That means the innovation in Windows -- and Microsoft 365 is the best way to conceptualize how we even think about Windows because it's one surface area where we want to deliver our best payloads for productivity, communications, collaboration, business process.

    這意味著 Windows 的創新——而 Microsoft 365 是概念化我們對 Windows 的看法的最佳方式,因為它是我們希望為生產力、通信、協作、業務流程提供最佳有效負載的一個表面區域。

  • And we'll keep working even on the form function innovation as well.

    我們還將繼續致力於表單功能的創新。

  • So even if you look at the holiday lineup of devices, it's great to see that, large screens, small screens, mobile, different chip architectures that make it pretty attractive to have a Windows device with you always.

    因此,即使您查看設備的假期陣容,也很高興看到,大屏幕、小屏幕、移動設備、不同的芯片架構使您始終擁有 Windows 設備非常有吸引力。

  • So that's how we look at it.

    所以我們就是這麼看的。

  • It's very important.

    這很重要。

  • I think if anything, even mobile-only countries and mobile-only scenarios are recognizing that they also can do with some help with additional screens.

    我想如果有的話,即使是僅限移動設備的國家和僅限移動設備的場景也認識到他們也可以通過額外的屏幕獲得一些幫助。

  • And so that's something that we look forward to.

    這是我們期待的事情。

  • Amy E. Hood - Executive VP & CFO

  • And I do think one of the ways to think, in particular, about commercial demand for Windows, to Satya's point, is it -- while it can have and tends to have, around end of support, some raised demand on the front, then you have a year of tough comparables, as we say, then it tends to generally stabilize and be quite consistent.

    而且我確實認為一種思考方式,特別是關於 Windows 的商業需求,在 Satya 的觀點上,是 - 雖然它可以並且傾向於在支持結束時,一些前端需求增加,然後正如我們所說,你有一年艱難的可比性,然後它往往會趨於穩定並且相當一致。

  • And I think as we've seen in the past 9 months, I think the high and mission-critical value of a PC in the commercial environment, whether you're doing that from a remote situation or inside the walls of an office, I think we feel very good about the value that we're offering.

    而且我認為正如我們在過去 9 個月中所看到的那樣,我認為 PC 在商業環境中的高價值和關鍵任務價值,無論您是在遠程情況下還是在辦公室的牆壁內進行操作,我認為我們對我們提供的價值感覺很好。

  • Our final question comes from Brent Bracelin with Piper Sandler.

    我們的最後一個問題來自 Brent Bracelin 和 Piper Sandler。

  • I'll squeeze in 2, if I could.

    如果可以的話,我會擠進2個。

  • Wanted to follow up on Azure.

    想要跟進 Azure。

  • This is a segment that's grown now to 17% of revenue.

    這個部分現在已經增長到收入的 17%。

  • I think that's up from 4% just 3 years ago.

    我認為這比 3 年前的 4% 有所上升。

  • You talked about the number of petabyte-scale applications doubling.

    您談到了 PB 級應用程序的數量翻了一番。

  • And from a size standpoint, it looks like in my model, Azure is bigger than the Windows business for the first time ever.

    從規模的角度來看,在我的模型中,Azure 有史以來第一次比 Windows 業務更大。

  • My question really is around where are we at in the journey around Azure?

    我的問題真的是圍繞著我們在 Azure 的旅程中處於什麼位置?

  • How important is this to the Microsoft model?

    這對微軟模式有多重要?

  • And ultimately, how big could it be looking out over the next 3 to 5 years?

    最終,它在未來 3 到 5 年的前景有多大?

  • Satya Nadella - CEO & Director

    Satya Nadella - CEO & Director

  • Let me start, and Amy, you can add to it.

    讓我開始吧,艾米,你可以添加它。

  • The way I think about the computing landscape going forward is if you sort of said at the highest of levels today as a percentage of GDP, tech spend is 5%.

    我對未來計算領域的看法是,如果你在今天的最高水平上說佔 GDP 的百分比,技術支出是 5%。

  • We think it will double in the next 10 years.

    我們認為它會在未來 10 年翻一番。

  • And if anything, this pandemic perhaps has accelerated that doubling.

    如果有的話,這種流行病可能加速了這一倍的增長。

  • And in that context, what's the large -- the most secular need, it's the need for distributed cloud infrastructure.

    在這種情況下,最長期的需求是什麼,它是對分佈式雲基礎設施的需求。

  • It's both needed for modernizing existing applications you have, and so that's why -- by the way, 20% penetrated so there's more 80% that needs to move.

    它是對現有應用程序進行現代化改造所必需的,這就是為什麼 - 順便說一句,20% 的應用程序已滲透,因此還有 80% 的應用程序需要遷移。

  • But more importantly, there's going to be new application starts which need infrastructure.

    但更重要的是,將會有需要基礎設施的新應用程序啟動。

  • And so if you sort of add those up, I think that we're still in early innings.

    因此,如果您將這些加起來,我認為我們仍處於早期階段。

  • There will be, between quarters, volatility, all of the points that Amy made even earlier.

    在兩個季度之間,將會出現波動,這是艾米更早提出的所有觀點。

  • But we think distributed cloud infrastructure is the most important layer.

    但我們認為分佈式雲基礎設施是最重要的一層。

  • But the way we have approached it is not to just think of that layer in isolation but the data layer work we do composes, the AI layer composes and more importantly, our SaaS applications, whether business applications, Power Platform, Microsoft 365, all reinforce that same modern tech stack.

    但我們處理它的方式不僅僅是孤立地考慮該層,而是我們所做的數據層工作、AI 層以及更重要的是,我們的 SaaS 應用程序,無論是業務應用程序、Power Platform、Microsoft 365,都加強了同樣的現代技術堆棧。

  • So I would still say that digitization in its -- this new tech stack is in its very infancy.

    所以我仍然會說它的數字化——這個新的技術堆棧還處於起步階段。

  • Amy E. Hood - Executive VP & CFO

  • And Brent, I think the last point Satya made is maybe the most important is that when we think about and talk about expanding addressable markets or seeing more opportunity than we maybe even saw just a few quarters ago, it's at every layer.

    布倫特,我認為薩蒂亞提出的最後一點可能最重要的是,當我們考慮和談論擴大目標市場或看到比幾個季度前甚至更多的機會時,它在每一層。

  • When people say that they have constraints, when you need a better time to value, when you need to reinvent each and almost every business process in a fast and effective manner, having every layer of the stack enabled by the infra layer, the data layer and the AI layer, I do think it's frankly early innings even in places where people think it seems to be nearer the end.

    當人們說他們有限制時,當您需要更好的時間來評估時,當您需要以快速有效的方式重新發明每一個業務流程時,讓堆棧的每一層都由基礎設施層、數據層啟用和 AI 層,坦率地說,即使在人們認為它似乎接近尾聲的地方,我也確實認為這是早期的一局。

  • And so I think we feel a lot of optimism in that respect.

    所以我認為我們在這方面感到非常樂觀。

  • Brent Alan Bracelin - MD & Senior Research Analyst

  • Certainly feel like an important milestone with Azure being larger than Windows for the first time.

    Azure 第一次比 Windows 更大,這無疑是一個重要的里程碑。

  • I guess the last question for me is really on AI.

    我想對我來說最後一個問題真的是關於人工智能。

  • And I know everyone's talked about this acceleration in digital adoption about -- across consumer and enterprise.

    我知道每個人都在談論數字化採用的加速——在消費者和企業中。

  • But it almost feels like the acceleration in AI is actually happening faster.

    但幾乎感覺人工智能的加速實際上發生得更快。

  • I'd be curious to hear kind of the plans for GPT-3 license and how you plan to democratize that across the platform.

    我很想知道 GPT-3 許可證的計劃以及您計劃如何在整個平台上實現民主化。

  • Satya Nadella - CEO & Director

    Satya Nadella - CEO & Director

  • Yes.

    是的。

  • It's a great observation because there are 2 sort of things that we are seeing.

    這是一個很好的觀察,因為我們看到了兩種事情。

  • AI is actually being used by both professional developers, people who want these large-scale transformer models or to even do zero-shot learning -- so we are seeing significant increases in COGS services usage across the board, which by the way, comes with the use of other compute services and data services in Azure.

    專業開發人員、想要這些大型變壓器模型甚至進行零樣本學習的人實際上都在使用人工智能——因此,我們看到 COGS 服務的使用全面顯著增加,順便說一下,在 Azure 中使用其他計算服務和數據服務。

  • But the other interesting thing is what I would call the domain experts who are using Power Apps, being able to tap into AI and these COGS services to build these workflow assisted with AI.

    但另一個有趣的事情是我稱之為使用 Power Apps 的領域專家,他們能夠利用 AI 和這些 COGS 服務來構建這些由 AI 輔助的工作流。

  • And that's where a lot of productivity gains for a lot of businesses and business process workflows is happening.

    這就是為許多企業和業務流程工作流帶來大量生產力提升的地方。

  • So it's exciting to see that as well as AI that's incorporated.

    所以很高興看到這一點以及人工智能的結合。

  • I mean every Teams session is full of AI because of the transcription services, the speech recognition services and so on that it incorporates, and same thing with Dynamics as well.

    我的意思是每個 Teams 會話都充滿了 AI,因為它包含了轉錄服務、語音識別服務等,而 Dynamics 也是如此。
