Get Azure-ready with the Cloud Adoption Framework

Do you know the fastest way to build your Azure practice?

Between a sudden pivot to remote work and end of support (EOS) for solutions like Windows Server 2008 and SQL Server 2008, it’s been a watershed year for cloud adoption. More than ever, your customers need flexibility, security, and scalability—while they also face pressure to reduce costs and replace outdated technology. With Azure, you’ll help customers meet the demands of rapid change while you build a high-margin cloud practice.

In fact, partners like you have a lot to gain by tapping into the cloud market. With 50% of large SMBs moving to the cloud within the next 12 months¹—and the potential to earn 25-40% margins for migration execution²—there’s never been a better time to capture the cloud opportunity.

SYNNEX is here to help you take advantage of the Microsoft Cloud Adoption Framework so you can help your customers modernize at their own pace, with familiar tools that work with their existing infrastructures. Our Microsoft-certified engineers will help you build a successful end-to-end Azure practice, from initial implementation to managed services.
