Microsoft expects gradual revenue growth for Azure as pricing increases take effect only upon contract renewals, with recent growth driven by efficiency and capacity expansion rather than price hikes. The company is also exploring partnerships for additional compute capacity, including potential collaboration with SpaceX, while managing a revenue-sharing cap with OpenAI.
