· ComputeLabs Research · from the November 1, 2026 edition
The supplied summary of Satya Nadella’s remarks reports that Microsoft added 24 data centers across five continents during the quarter. It presents those additions as part of Microsoft’s broader computing-infrastructure expansion and development of a fungible fleet.
The same update reports increased throughput for both data centers and Copilot workloads. It does not provide a numerical throughput improvement or specify how much of that improvement came from the newly added facilities.
For business context, the summary reports Microsoft Cloud revenue above $63 billion, with year-over-year growth accelerating to 30%. It does not provide the new facilities’ locations, capital costs, megawatt capacity, rack counts, or accelerator inventory; a facility count therefore cannot be converted into a compute-capacity figure.
