Microsoft Financial Results Q1 FY22
Another excellent showing from Microsoft - revenue up 22% and operating income up 27% year on year.
There was double digit growth from Office 365 Commercial (23%), Dynamics 365 (48%), and LinkedIn (42%) while Azure continued its run of growing by 50%. PowerApps grew by 202% which, even though that will be from a small base, is still pretty impressive!

Microsoft make more aquisitions
Two more organisations have been added to the Microsoft portfolio in October 2021 - Clear Software and Ally.io.
The first will expand Power Platform capabilities to interact with Oracle & SAP systems - and also expand the potential for 3rd-party licensing issues no doubt! - and the second will be added to the fledgling Microsoft Viva line-up, focusing on Objectives and Key Results (OKR).
Neither deal has had the amount revealed but they both signify Microsoft's intent to keep growing these areas of their business - I expect to see more throughout FY22.
More info on the acquisitions here.
