Accelerate your migration to Azure with an automation platform

Jump to section

As organizations migrate to a cloud strategy, they begin to face the challenges of managing and optimizing their cloud environment. They want to adapt operational approaches to their business requirements while supporting specialized teams for each major hyperscale provider or cloud technology they are consuming. To solve these challenges, they need a common operations framework implemented through automation.

Join Microsoft and Red Hat to learn about how Red Hat® Ansible® Automation Platform makes it easy to manage cloud infrastructure, streamlining and operationalizing activities across Microsoft Azure and cloud-native services. With Ansible Automation Platform, you can coordinate and manage cloud environments in a simple and effective way, reducing complexity and operational costs. 

We will also explore how to migrate infrastructure and applications including Red Hat Enterprise Linux® to Azure and how Ansible Automation Platform accelerates cloud migration and reduces friction in your Azure environment.  We will discuss how simple it is to get started with preintegrated Azure cloud services and certified automation content, and it counts towards your cloud committed spend agreements and makes procurement more efficient.

In this webinar, we’ll cover: 

  • The benefits of cloud automation for Azure and the use cases unlocking that value
  • How Ansible brings speed and efficiency to safely migrate Red Hat Enterprise Linux and on-premise environments to Azure 
  • Ways to:
    • Use preintegrated Azure cloud services and certified automation content

Campbell Vertesi

Campbell Vertesi

Microsoft Partner CTO for Red Hat

Computers have always hated Campbell Vertesi. It started with his family's IBM XT which wouldn't let him play Lode Runner. Many hours later, Campbell had learned DOS memory management, and the computer had surrendered. Campbell has worked in open source for 20+ years, because you can only beat the computer into submission when you can see and understand the software. In that time he's taken every kind of role in the enterprise open source world, from engineering lead to project manager to strategic lead. He is presently Microsoft's CTO for the partnership with Red Hat, so all the engineering these two companies do together is on some level his fault. He is a published author, speaker, open source developer, and father.  Outside of tech, Campbell is co-founder and a performer with The Cast, the international opera band breaking the mold for classical music in Europe.
