Date: Tue May 06 2025
Time: 13:00 GMT+0100 (British Summer Time)
Description: Join us as we dive into the various complexities of Microsoft licensing for cloud environments.
We'll look at how the rules differ between the different cloud platforms including Microsoft Azure, Amazon AWS, Google Cloud, and other non-hyperscaler providers.
You'll get all the information you need to keep costs down, reduce risks, and increase value as you migrate and grow in the cloud.
