So it’s hard to get a sense of just what is happening in SaaS. “B2B2B” remains in a big funk, with Salesforce projecting a decline to single-digit growth for the first time ever next year.

And yet … both AI and the consumer economy remain strong: Databricks is growing 60% at $2.4B — and that’s up from 50% the year before!
