They discuss three key resources available to partners: Cloud Ascent, which helps partners identify and prioritize customer opportunities; ARAE, the Azure Rapid Assessment Estimator for quick cost estimations; and the Cloud Migration Factory, which provides Microsoft-funded resources to assist with migrations and hybrid deployments. Adam highlights the success partners have found with these tools, including increased Azure adoption and efficient customer migration processes.
