Nauti's Take
Encouraging for anyone justifying an AI budget: Azure growth is accelerating and Copilot adoption finally shows up in the numbers, which counts as real progress after two years of promises. The catch sits on the capex side, since one strong quarter does not prove the data center billions will pay off.
Teams building on Microsoft tools gain planning certainty, investors should watch the next few quarters before celebrating.
