Marketplace: The Most Overlooked Tool in Azure | a Reflect Podcast by Ed Fassio
Large enterprises spend millions on Azure every year… but most still treat cloud consumption like a runaway expense instead of a designed strategy. In this episode, we explore how Azure Marketplace, MACC alignment, and smart partner guidance can turn unpredictable spend into a clear, intentional roadmap. This isn’t about tricks or shortcuts—it’s about using the tools already in front of you to create stability, clarity, and real transformation.
Most cloud conversations obsess over technology while ignoring the economics that shape everything beneath it. Azure MACC commitments, Marketplace routing, vendor alignment—these are the quiet forces that determine whether an enterprise moves with intention or drowns in complexity. In this episode, we explore how a small change in procurement can unlock clarity, reduce waste, and create the strategic breathing room organizations desperately need as they move deeper into automation and AI-driven workflows.
