Wave periods between major innovation in the cloud are growing shorter. We no longer have the luxury of waiting it out, of adopting later. Cloud ecosystems built on strategic foundations create the conditions to absorb successive waves of change. This session introduces the emerging concept of ecosystem-oriented architecture across Power Platform + Azure + Fabric + Microsoft 365 + Dynamics 365 + AI, share core principles of this architectural approach, apply these principles in real-world scenarios, and navigate the latest "reference ecosystem" and other tools available to ecosystem architects and strategic cloud decision makers. These are essential concepts as solutions are increasingly tied together in the cloud ecosystem rather than architected in isolation, generating vast datasets built as "single sources of truth". This session will get you thinking like the world's boldest enterprise architects as we explore real-world examples of how organizations have knitted their workloads together into an ecosystem, best practices for doing so, and lessons learned along the way.

This session is geared to solution and enterprise architects really pushing the bounds with real examples of how organizations are building ecosystems of tier-1 solutions, and also for business users trying to "go big" using the Microsoft Cloud to modernize their organizations.
