WPC Conference Guide
During the Expo, connect with us at the Microsoft + Open Source booth in Microsoft Central to learn more about how Microsoft’s approach to working with open source technologies creates monetization opportunities for cloud partners. We’re fortunate to be side-by-side this year with Red Hat, who will be demonstrating their solutions and discussing partner opportunities in the booth.
