Question: Matthew George Hedberg - RBC Capital Markets, Research Division - Analyst
: Maybe following up on Alex's question. I think what stood out to us in addition to cloud NRR accelerating sequentially, but also it
looks like large customer growth also accelerated on a sequential basis, which is great to see. I guess I'm kind of curious given the
comments on macro and demand that you talked about, curious on the sustainability or durability of elevated cloud NRR. And I
mean, is that a trend given this increasing push to cloud that could perhaps continue into next year?
Question: Matthew George Hedberg - RBC Capital Markets, Research Division - Analyst
: I'm curious, was there any sign of -- any vertical strength that you call out, perhaps federal government or any other thing that was
noteworthy on the results?
Question: Patrick Edwin Ronald Colville - Scotiabank Global Banking and Markets, Research Division - Analyst
: So I mean when I look at numbers, cloud ARR growth has barely decelerated at all. It's been incredibly impressive what you guys
have done, especially in the face of kind of tight IT budgets and public cloud vendors, their growth momentum is slowing. So I guess
if IT spending is better next year than it was this year, and AI momentum continues. I mean is there a world where we could expect
Informatica's cloud ARR growth to like reaccelerate?
Question: Patrick Edwin Ronald Colville - Scotiabank Global Banking and Markets, Research Division - Analyst
: Okay. And then I guess just one more on the restructuring. Are there specific areas that you can share that were impacted? I mean
is it more -- is it kind of deemphasizing for example the self-managed domain within Informatica, both in terms of go-to-market and
product dev and emphasizing cloud? Or is there any kind of way you can double-click is the -- which areas are being, I guess,
deemphasized and then as a result, maybe which shares are being more emphasized?
Question: Jaiden Rajiv Patel - JPMorgan Chase & Co, Research Division - Analyst
: My question is are you starting to see higher expansion rates among IPU-based customers, and what should we expect looking
forward?
Question: Jaiden Rajiv Patel - JPMorgan Chase & Co, Research Division - Analyst
: Got it. And then as a follow-up, can you help us understand the general puts and takes around 2024 revenue growth?
