$GOOGL Alphabet CFO: Third-party capacity will pressure Cloud margins in Q3 as Alphabet bridges internal infrastructure shortages. “Given the supply constraint environment we're in, we are planning to expand the use of third-party capacity in Q3 as a bridging strategy. While we continue to build out internal capacity, that capacity, given the cost of that capacity, will put some pressure on operating margins for cloud."


Alphabet CEO says they accept elevated short-term capacity costs when they secure strategically important, multi-year Cloud customer relationships. “There are, on the margin, very, very large customers of ours on cloud whom we are trying to support through this extraordinary moment. And the incremental opportunities they are bringing to us—while a short-term cost over a few months may be very high—in the lifetime of the deal, as we bring more capacity on, is highly ROI positive, right?"
