This webinar will explain the difference between “cloud adoption” and “cloud migration”. Too many organisations mix up the two and jump straight to migration.
As a result, they forget to make the necessary changes to people, processes, and tools. The migration might succeed – but adoption is doomed to fail. Once we get over the doom and gloom we’ll talk about how to succeed, focusing on what is necessary to drive adoption and innovation with The Cloud in your organisation.

Have you heard about Chat GPT? Do you think Open AI could be the future of your company, or make your job way easier? Where does it sit today?
In this session, we will discuss where Open AI currently sits in Azure. Cover some cool technology like Azure communication services, Twillio, Azure Open AI, and Logic Apps. We will debunk some myths, discuss how to get access to Azure Open AI, build out a low code/no code solution to leverage Azure Open AI, and finally build out our own version of an SMS-based search engine. After this talk, you will be able to build a system that allows you to send a text message to a number and have Open AI answer you wherever you have text message coverage for Free*.
