Microsoft has released its statements for the first quarter in its financial year, ending 30th September. Here is the segment breakdown. Everything has moved in the right direction.<\/p>\n
Quarter ending September 30th 2018 vs quarter ending September 30th 2017, $millions<\/em><\/p>\n The segments break down as:<\/p>\n Productivity and Business Processes<\/strong>: Office, Office 365, Dynamics 365 and on-premises Dynamics, LinkedIn<\/p>\n Intelligent Cloud<\/strong>: Server products, Azure cloud services<\/p>\n More Personal Computing<\/strong>: Consumer including Windows, Xbox; Bing search; Surface hardware<\/p>\n Any points of interest? In his earnings call statement, CEO Satya Nadella talked Teams, the Office 365 conferencing and collaboration solution:<\/p>\n \u201cTeams is now the hub for teamwork for 329,000 organizations, including 87 of the Fortune 100.

The figures in the productivity segment lump together Office 365 and on-premises products, while Office 365 itself is in part a subscription to desktop Office, so not pure cloud. Equally, the \u201cintelligent cloud\u201d segment includes on-premises server licenses. No doubt this fuzzing of what is and is not cloud in the figures is deliberate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Microsoft has released its statements for the first quarter in its financial year, ending 30th September.
