Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella said the weaker global economy has the chance to prove the need of public cloud.
For those who came in late, Public cloud allows Microsoft customers to control ramping up and ramping down based on demand, which could also help customers with growing energy costs, it is claimed.
“The thing, though, from a customer perspective – the best way for them to align their spend with what is uncertain demand is to move to the cloud”, Nadella said.
“So we see the value prop of the cloud. So the big winner in all of this will be public cloud because public cloud helps businesses offset the risk of demand risk.”
Azure Arc has more than 8,500 customers, more than double a year ago, Nadella said. Azure Machine Learning revenue has increased more than 100 percent for the last four quarters.
