An Azure Native path to New Relic Intelligent Observability for AKS AKS environments are dynamic by design. Applications can span clusters, namespaces, nodes, pods, and containers, while workloads scale and change continuously. Obtaining consistent visibility often requires platform teams to deploy and maintain monitoring components separately on every cluster. Azure Native New Relic Service simplifies this process by integrating New Relic onboarding and management into Azure. Customers can already use the service to: Create a new New Relic account or link an existing account from Azure. Configure the forwarding of Azure platform metrics and logs to New Relic. View the monitoring status of Azure resources. Consolidate procurement and eligible New Relic charges through Azure Marketplace. Monitor multiple Azure subscriptions through a single New Relic resource. With AKS extension support, customers can now extend this native management experience to their Kubernetes clusters. Install the New Relic integration from the Azure portal The new experience follows the same simple model used by Azure Native integrations for other compute resources. From an Azure Native New Relic Service resource, customers can navigate to New Relic account config > Azure Kubernetes Services, select an eligible AKS cluster, and choose Install Extension. Azure then deploys the New Relic Kubernetes integration by using the AKS cluster extensions framework. After deployment completes, the portal displays the installation status for the cluster. Customers can return to the same experience to review the status or select Uninstall Extension when monitoring is no longer required. AKS cluster extensions provide an Azure Resource Manager-based approach for installing and managing services on AKS. This gives customers a consistent Azure control plane experience for deployment and lifecycle operations instead of requiring a separate, manual Helm installation for each cluster. Gain deeper visibility into Kubernetes workloads The extension deploys the New Relic Kubernetes integration to the selected AKS cluster. The integration provides visibility across Kubernetes infrastructure and workloads, including cluster, node, namespace, deployment, pod, and container health and performance. Depending on the enabled New Relic configuration, customers can also bring together Kubernetes events, logs, and Prometheus-formatted metrics with application and Azure platform telemetry in New Relic. This helps application, platform, and site reliability engineering teams investigate issues across the stack without stitching together disconnected views. Teams can use New Relic to: Understand resource consumption and health across clusters, nodes, pods, and containers. Identify unhealthy workloads, container restarts, and capacity constraints. Correlate Kubernetes infrastructure signals with application performance data. Explore Kubernetes entities and relationships through New Relic's cluster experience. Create dashboards, alerts, and operational workflows using telemetry from Azure and AKS. The result is a more direct path from detecting an issue to understanding its impact on applications and users. Reduce operational toil with unified telemetry For organizations operating multiple AKS clusters, consistency is as important as visibility. Manual installation can lead to configuration drift, missed clusters, and additional work whenever monitoring components need to be changed. The Azure Native New Relic Service experience helps address these challenges by providing: Simplified onboarding: Install the integration from the Azure portal without building a separate deployment workflow. Centralized visibility: Review AKS extension status alongside other Azure resources connected to New Relic. Azure governance alignment: Use Azure Resource Manager and Azure role-based access control as part of the management experience. Lifecycle management: Install or remove the extension through a consistent Azure workflow. Unified, full-stack observability: Connect AKS telemetry with application, infrastructure, log, and Azure platform data in New Relic. This experience is particularly useful for platform teams that want to make observability available as a standardized service while allowing development teams to use New Relic for troubleshooting and performance optimization. Get started To begin monitoring AKS with Azure Native New Relic Service: Either browse to the Marketplace offer listing or in the Azure portal, create an Azure Native New Relic Service resource. Go to New Relic account config > Azure Kubernetes Services. Select the AKS cluster that you want to monitor. Select Install Extension and then confirm the installation. After the status changes to Installed, open New Relic to explore your Kubernetes data and configure the dashboards and alerts appropriate for your environment. If you face any technical challenges do raise a support ticket and share your feedback.Multiparty private offers through Marketplace: channel growth in Australia

The way organizations buy technology is changing quickly. As AI moves from experimentation into production, customers want to source solutions, services, and the expertise to deploy them through the routes they already trust. Increasingly that means cloud marketplaces. The momentum behind Microsoft Marketplace reflects this shift, with sales doubling year-over-year, for the third consecutive year.* For partners, this creates a near-term opportunity to meet customers where they want to buy, while connecting software innovation, services expertise, and the Microsoft reach through one commercial platform. The next wave of transformation will not be driven by AI alone. It will be driven by ecosystems. As organizations enter the era of Frontier Transformation, they are looking beyond technology vendors to partners who can help turn AI investments into measurable business outcomes. In an AI-driven economy, Marketplace is becoming the commercial engine that connects innovation to customer value. Software companies bring innovation. Channel partners bring customer intimacy, services expertise, and local reach. Marketplace brings them together, creating a single platform where the ecosystem can co-build, co-sell, and deliver end-to-end solutions at scale. That shift is the focus of the conversation Sandy Gupta, Vice President, Global ISV Ecosystem, and I had at MCAPS Start for Partners. We shared where Marketplace is headed in FY27 and why this is the moment to treat it as a core growth engine. This blog recaps that session and outlines the priorities partners can act on now. Meeting customers in the markets and moments where they buy Technology innovation can scale globally almost overnight, but customer buying behaviors remain deeply local. AI solutions may reach the market quickly, but adoption is still shaped by regional procurement practices, trusted advisor relationships, and established routes to market. Global reach matters, but it must be paired with local relevance.

Accessibility is increasingly both a business imperative and a meaningful commercial opportunity for partners. At this year’s Microsoft Ability Summit, leaders across technology, education, and advocacy reinforced a clear point: accessibility-first innovation is creating new demand across AI, collaboration, learning, and customer experience. For partners, accessibility represents a clear opportunity to grow customer value. Accessibility-first innovation is becoming a mainstream expectation, opening opportunities to build differentiated services and solutions across AI, collaboration, learning, compliance, and customer experience. Organizations are increasingly viewing accessibility as part of a broader shift in how they approach AI, employee experience, and customer engagement. For partners, that shift creates an opportunity to lead higher-value conversations around innovation, trust, and long-term business impact. I encourage you to read Microsoft Chief Accessibility Officer Neil Barnett’s full recap of this year’s announcements and stories from the summit, including updates across AI, developer tools, Windows, devices, learning, Xbox, and inclusive packaging design. Why accessiblity matters for partners now Accessibility is becoming part of how customers evaluate experience quality, employee productivity, compliance expectations, and technology trust. Organizations are looking for technology that works consistently across real-world scenarios, roles, abilities, and environments. That expectation is accelerating as AI adoption grows. Accessibility is increasingly becoming part of how customers evaluate transformation readiness, technology trust, and the quality of the experiences they deliver across their organizations. A 2026 Forrester Consulting study commissioned by Microsoft found that assistive technology is already part of everyday work and life. Consumers reported using assistive features across at least six activities in the past month, on average. The same study found that 63% of respondents reported some level of difficulty with daily tasks related to vision, hearing, learning and cognition, mobility, and/or mental health. It also found that 71% of respondents would use assistive tools more often if enhanced with AI capabilities, and 55% said they feel a stronger commitment to employers when companies prioritize assistive tools and features. For partners, this points to a broader opportunity. Accessibility-first design can expand participation, strengthen employee and customer experiences, and build greater trust in technology, making it an increasingly important part of long-term transformation strategy. Where partners can lead The opportunity for partners is to bring accessibility into the conversations that are already shaping customer priorities, including AI transformation and adoption, modern work, application innovation, employee experience, customer engagement, and compliance. As accessibility becomes more central to business and technology strategy, partners can differentiate by making it part of the broader value they bring to customers. Partners that bring accessibility-first innovation into these conversations can deepen trust, expand strategic relevance, and create more differentiated value over time. This opportunity spans organizations of every size. Across both SMB and enterprise customers, accessibility is increasingly part of how leaders think about growth, workforce experience, customer connection, and technology modernization, and the Microsoft partner ecosystem is well positioned to meet that need. Partner opportunities in Microsoft Marketplace Microsoft Marketplace offers a useful view into how partners are translating accessibility-first innovation into practical customer value. The examples below illustrate how that opportunity is taking shape across different business and technology scenarios. Level Access makes digital accessibility a streamlined, scalable part of everyday operations The Level Access platform supports a continuous approach to accessibility, embedded into design, development, governance, and training workflows. Unlike point tools or episodic audits, this integrated solution helps organizations accelerate remediation, reduce risk, and demonstrate progress over time. Organizations can extend the power of the Level Access platform through private offers with capabilities such as LevelDocs for accessible content creation and remediation in Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint; LevelCI for automated web accessibility testing within CI/CD pipelines; and Mobile Testing for native iOS and Android accessibility across physical and virtual devices. Retain Connector by Inclusively Many organizations have invested heavily in benefits, workplace accommodations, mental health resources, and employee support programs. But employees, especially those navigating disabilities or workplace barriers, often don't know what is available or how to access it. Retain Connector by Inclusively closes that gap directly inside the tools employees already use. Deployed within Microsoft Teams, SharePoint, Outlook, and Microsoft 365 with no heavy integrations required, Retain acts as a workforce intelligence layer that lets employees describe their needs in plain language and get routed to the right benefits and resources through Inclusively's Success Enabler framework without needing to know what to search for or where to look. For employees who may feel hesitant to disclose a need or navigate a fragmented benefits landscape, the anonymous, conversational experience lowers the barrier to getting support. For HR and people leaders, Retain surfaces something equally valuable: real-time, aggregated insights into the benefits and barriers employees are actually experiencing. That intelligence helps organizations understand unmet demand, allocate benefits investments more effectively, and demonstrate a genuine commitment to inclusion not just in policy, but in practice. Creating differentiated value through accessibility offerings Taken together, these examples reinforce a broader point: accessibility is becoming an increasingly important part of how partners create differentiated value across both employee and customer experiences. Marketplace solutions can strengthen how partners bring accessibility-first innovation into customer conversations and platform experiences. The Microsoft Accessibility Partner Onboarding Guide also provides a useful foundation for partners looking to expand their accessibility focus on Microsoft platforms. The opportunity ahead for partners Accessibility is becoming an increasingly important part of the conversations customers are having around AI, modern work, security, application development, and industry transformation. The opportunity is not to treat accessibility as a separate conversation. It is to make accessibility part of how customers modernize, adopt AI, and build more trusted digital experiences. Ability Summit 2026 reinforced that accessibility-first innovation is shaping the future of AI, productivity, learning, collaboration, and end-customer experience. For partners, the opportunity is to turn that innovation into real customer impact. It is about building AI-powered experiences that are more trusted, more inclusive, and more effective for the people they serve. As Frontier Transformation accelerates AI adoption, partners are uniquely positioned to turn accessibility-first innovation into lasting business impact deepening customer relationships, expanding strategic relevance, and building stronger momentum as accessibility-first expectations continue to rise for our customers.

From insight to action: how Adobe and Microsoft are helping marketers move faster with AI
Today’s marketing leaders are under pressure to do more than ever—deliver meaningful personalization, accelerate execution, and prove measurable business impact. At the same time, teams are navigating increasing complexity: fragmented data, disconnected tools, and insights that arrive too late to act on. AI can change this—but only when it’s embedded directly into how people already work. That’s why Microsoft and Adobe are deepening our partnership: bringing customer experience intelligence, AI-powered workflows, and enterprise-grade AI directly into Microsoft 365 Copilot—so teams can move from insight to alignment to execution in one continuous workflow. The result is faster decisions, more coordinated execution, and clearer business outcomes—without breaking flow or context. Bringing customer experience intelligence into the flow of work Marketing teams don’t struggle because they lack data. They struggle because insights live in one place, collaboration in another, and execution somewhere else entirely. That disconnect slows teams down and creates unnecessary friction between analysis and action. Together, Adobe and Microsoft are changing that dynamic by connecting Adobe’s customer experience capabilities with Microsoft 365 Copilot and Copilot Cowork—so insight, collaboration, and next-best action can happen where work already happens: in Copilot Chat and in everyday apps like Teams, Word, and PowerPoint. Marketers can ask questions, explore insights, align with teammates, and take action without jumping between tools—turning intelligence into impact at the moment it matters. Adobe Marketing Agent for Microsoft 365 Copilot: now generally available A major milestone in this journey is the general availability of the Adobe Marketing Agent for Microsoft 365 Copilot, now available via Microsoft Commercial Marketplace. The Adobe Marketing Agent brings Adobe customer experience intelligence directly into Copilot, enabling marketing teams to: Accelerate time from insight to decision Move seamlessly from analysis to execution Keep humans firmly in control, with AI supporting—not replacing—decision‑making Importantly, the agent is enterprise-ready by design. IT administrators can deploy and manage the experience through the Microsoft 365 admin center, ensuring security, governance, and compliance at scale. Expanding executive experiences with Copilot Cowork Looking ahead, Adobe skills designed for customer experience orchestration will be accessible in Copilot Cowork—in a future release. This upcoming experience will enable customer experience leaders to engage with customer experience insights in a more direct, conversational way, bringing strategic visibility into the same Copilot environments where decisions are made and actions are coordinated. Built on Azure to scale securely and responsibly The technology foundation of this innovation is Azure. Adobe Experience Platform, Adobe Experience Platform Agent Orchestrator, and Adobe AI Agents are built on Azure and leverage Azure AI models, providing the scalability, security, and reliability enterprises require. By running on Azure, these agentic experiences benefit from Microsoft’s global infrastructure, enterprise‑grade security, and responsible AI commitments—supporting customer trust as organizations scale AI across their business. Designed for interoperability across agent ecosystems Modern enterprises don’t operate in a single ecosystem—and their agents shouldn’t either. Adobe agents are built to interoperate with agents created using Microsoft Azure AI Foundry or Copilot Studio, enabling customers to orchestrate richer, cross‑functional workflows across marketing, sales, service, and operations. This architecture is designed to enable organizations to compose agentic solutions that reflect how work actually happens—across systems, teams, and business processes. Moving from experimentation to execution This partnership reflects a broader shift in how organizations adopt AI—moving from experimentation to embedded, enterprise‑ready execution. By bringing the full power of Adobe Experience Platform together with Microsoft’s AI platform, cloud infrastructure, and Copilot experiences, we’re helping teams move faster with clarity, confidence, and control. This is how AI becomes not just powerful—but practical. Learn more Adobe + Microsoft partnership page Adobe Marketing Agent for Microsoft Copilot page
