Priorities will include growing its security services specialist ecosystem and driving sustained partner momentum via cloud marketplaces. The launch of an AI-predicted opportunity campaign will boost up- and cross-sell opportunities, while the new Technical Partner Center will help partners optimize pre- and post-sales."
