Azure Sentinel – Three step approach to sizing and pricing if you have Log Analytics?
As there are lots of question on this topic, I’m hoping this post will help.![a close up of a logo](https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/industry/blog/wp-content/uploads/sites/22/2017/07/UK-Hybrid-Cloud-Team-Grey-300x169.webp)

However, while organisations are beginning to turbo-charge their AI efforts, not everyone is taking advantage of the technology. As a result, they’re handing success to their rivals.![Graphic with text reading Settling the war between Agility and Control](https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/industry/blog/wp-content/uploads/sites/22/2019/09/ID-5911-Blogger-Series-Microsoft-Cloud-Adoption-Framework-For-Azure-800x450-300x169.webp)
The Microsoft Cloud Adoption Framework for Azure: Settling the six-decade war between Agility and Control
Agility and control. Diametrically opposing forces present in almost every organisation in the world. Business leaders keen to innovate and disrupt the markets they operate in.
