Launching the Azure Storage Solution showcase

I am pleased to announce a new webcast series showcasing innovative technology partners who have built solutions on top of the Azure Storage infrastructure. Microsoft has always been committed to our partner ecosystem and we are especially proud of the work we have done on the Azure Storage team. Over the last two years we have witnessed an impressive increase in the number of solutions that integrate with, or are built on top of Azure Storage. All of these solutions are capable of helping our customers take advantage of Azure services and achieve tangible benefits for their businesses. It is all about our customers and helping you achieve your goals.

So what will you see and learn about during this series?

• Learn to use solutions you already have, from the vendors you trust, while extending your data center to Azure and building Cloud native solutions with your data.
• How to synchronize or migrate data to Azure Storage and leverage it with On-Demand Azure Services like:
  • VMs
  • High Performance Computing
  • App Services
  • Containers
  • Media Services
  • Databases
  • Analytics
  • Machine Learning
  • Cognitive Services
• Manage explosive data growth in your organization.
• Worried about GDPR? Meet compliance and legal discovery requirements.
• End the cycle of equipment refreshes, data migrations, and stranded unusable capacity. 

The solutions we will feature can help you introduce the operational benefits of Azure Storage and Azure Services inside your organization. Each webcast will feature a brief presentation, live demo, and open Q&A. You will hear from industry leaders and from emerging partners as well! The series will be delivered via the Skype Meeting Broadcast platform and you will find attendee instructions, system requirements, and troubleshooting assistance below. Each session will be recorded and you can view any of the events in the series on-demand, with any device.
