Our recent analysis indicates that 74% of customer outages could have been prevented by following reliability guidance in the Well-Architected Framework (WAF)*. Ignoring WAF can lead to more frequent outages, diminished CSAT, and risk to ACR. No matter the workload, customers need help protecting service continuity. Help your customers reduce risk with a Proactive Resilience engagement by designing resilient cloud workloads, or remediating existing critical workloads. In this webinar, Azure Advanced Specialized partners can learn how to deliver Proactive Resilience engagements to provide their customers actionable guidance, recommendations for reliability and uptime; and improved confidence and understanding of Azure.
