Revenue grew to $17 billion from $11.5 billion the prior quarter, but compute costs as a share of revenue worsened, rising from 48% to 58%, driven by $10 billion in quarterly compute spending, including $5 billion under costly short-term commitments with neocloud providers like SpaceX, Nscale, Akamai, and Volta.
