Revenue increased $825 million or 14%, primarily due to higher revenue from server products and cloud services.

• Server products and cloud services revenue increased $807 million or 17%, driven by Azure revenue growth of 90% and server products licensed on-premises revenue growth of 2%.

• Enterprise Services revenue increased 1%, driven by higher revenue from Premier Support Services, offset in part by a decline in revenue from custom support agreements.

Operating income increased $360 million or 20%, primarily due to higher gross margin, offset in part by higher operating expenses.

• Gross margin increased $434 million or 10%, driven by growth in server products and cloud services revenue and cloud services scale and efficiencies.
