Question: Kasthuri Gopalan Rangan - Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., Research Division - Analyst
: Congrats on the quarter, and congrats to Janesh as well.
Ash, I'm curious to get your take on the transition to the cloud. As you move to the cloud, what are the new use cases and new kinds of opportunities
Question: Matthew George Hedberg - RBC Capital Markets, Research Division - Analyst
: Congrats on the results, too. Ash, you're clearly all-in on the cloud, and the AWS news 2 weeks ago was great to see. Can you talk about how big
of a deal that enhanced collaboration is with them? And maybe how customers -- or what the go-to-market initiatives are? And maybe can customers
use AWS cloud credits to purchase Elastic Cloud?
Question: Matthew George Hedberg - RBC Capital Markets, Research Division - Analyst
: No, that's really good to hear. We've covered the stock for a long time, and it just feels like it removes one of the overhangs on the stock historically.
It's really great to hear, Ash.
And then, Janesh, maybe just a quick one for you. There's a lot of good things to talk about from the results. But I think the biggest news, from my
perspective, too, is the $2 billion guide -- revenue guide for fiscal '25.
When we think about the bridge to that, your fiscal '23 guide calls for about $220 million of net new revenue. But to get to the midpoint of, from
'23 to $2 billion in fiscal '25, implies about $920 million of net new revenue between fiscal '24 and fiscal '25 or really an acceleration of growth. Can
you help us maybe think about the bridge of how we get from your midpoint of your fiscal '23 guide to $2 billion?
Question: Yitchuin Wong - Citigroup Inc., Research Division - Analyst
: This Yitchuin taking a question for Tyler here. Congrats, Janesh, on the new COO title as well. Nice close to the year here.
Ash, you mentioned some company that has better usage, especially the Fortune 50 company that's doubling usage in the quarter here. But I'm
curious if you see any weaker usage or how has some of your highest growth customer in the past year trended in the quarter here given some of
the commentary among some of your peers that saw slower momentum.
Question: Yitchuin Wong - Citigroup Inc., Research Division - Analyst
: Got it. Janesh, I'll just touch on some of your total customer count, seems slightly slower than before. It's actually slowing for a few quarters here.
Just wondering, have you seen some of your smaller customers like change to the open-source version? Or just how your total customer expectation
are trending?
