Thanks, Yuka, and thank you all for joining us to go over our Q2 results. Let me begin with this quarter's business drivers. Our revenue growth in Q2 has accelerated across our customer base. On one hand, our AI-native customer cohort continues to grow and diversify both in the number of customers we serve and the scale of those customers. But on the other hand, and as a great illustration of the breadth of trends across our business, revenue growth for our non-AI customers also accelerated again this quarter to the high 20% year-over-year, up from the mid-20s last quarter and 18% in the year-over-quarter. Overall, we continue to see healthy trends in customer demand. Our broad base of customers, from the most nimble startups to the largest and most established enterprises, are all adopting AI. We think this is accelerating their usage of cloud and modern technologies, as well as their usage of the Datadog platform to observe, secure, and act on their cloud and AI workloads. Regarding our Q2 financial performance and key metrics, revenue was $1.12 billion, an increase of 36% year-over-year and above the high end of our guidance range. We ended Q2 with about 33,400 customers, up from about 31,400 a year ago, We also ended with about 4,720 customers with an ARR of $100,000 or more, up from about 3,850 a year ago. These customers generated about 91% of our ARR. And we generated free cash flow of $279 million, with a free cash flow margin of 25%.
