In this session, we will cover all the latest release details, and the new tooling that is available, and how we are leveraging Azure DevOps for management of the adoption.

Post the updates session we will open the session to the floor allowing attendees to steer the conversation to the areas of cloud adoption in which they have a particular interest or have blockers currently. Areas the Microsoft Cloud Adoption Framework for Azure covers are: Strategy, Plan, Ready, Adopt, Operate

It would be great to see you there (we'll have beer and pizza if that seals the deal!)
