Introducing Cloud Accelerate Factory

 

As part of our partner commitment, we strive to continually update and improve the partner experience and add key benefits designed to further your growth. We are excited to share the latest updates for Azure partner-led offerings – Azure Migrate and Modernize and Azure Innovate. 

Azure Migrate and Modernize and Azure Innovate are built to work together to accelerate cloud and AI transformation. These two offerings are underpinned by Azure Essentials, which offers foundational guidance, best practices, dedicated skilling, and expanded support across additional scenarios to support your customer projects.

 

Evolving to meet your needs

  • We’re excited to introduce Cloud Accelerate Factory (formerly Cloud Migration Factory) as a new benefit within Azure Migrate and Modernize and Azure Innovate––marking a key step forward in how we help you accelerate Azure projects. Learn more below.
  • We’re expanding the Azure Migrate and Modernize and Azure Innovate offerings to help partners drive business in SMB segments; New incentives for smaller engagement sizes give you more ways to grow your SMB-facing business and deliver added value.
  • In addition, we’re increasing partner payments for Azure VMware Solution (AVS) scenarios. For AVS partner-led engagements, you can maximize your earning opportunities with increased incentives up to USD $175,000.

 

 Cloud Accelerate Factory value for partners

Partners know the extensive effort required for a successful project, highlighting the necessity of comprehensive technical expertise, meticulous planning, and coordinated execution across many moving parts. When you engage the Factory, you still own the project end-to-end, and Factory experts support the engagement in select areas like discovery, assessment, migration, and landing zone setup.

 

 

Here's what to expect from the Factory: 

  • Get zero cost assistance from Microsoft  to deploy 30+ Azure services via joint delivery with an Azure partner no matter the project size. 
  • Accelerate with industry best practices and complete deployments in weeks, leveraging proven strategies developed over thousands of customer engagements. 
  • Partners can maximize investments by prioritizing funding and skilled resources for the more advanced components or projects to boost business impact.
