AI adoption

  • Članak

The Cloud Adoption Framework (CAF) provides a structured process for adopting AI solutions in Azure. This framework outlines clear steps, many of which apply to Microsoft Copilot adoption.

The CAF AI adoption process supports organizations ranging from large enterprises to startups. You learn how to identify AI use cases, select appropriate AI solutions, and build effective AI workloads. The guidance also covers operational processes required for governance, management, and security of AI implementations.
