I am exiting to let you know that I will be speaking at Microsoft Ignite The Tour in Zürich. This will not only be my 6th Microsoft Ignite The Tour (MITT) stop after Shenzhen, London, Milan, Prague, and Copenhagen, and it will also be my home tour stop in Zürich, Switzerland. For those who haven’t heard of MITT yet, Microsoft Ignite The Tour brings the very best of Microsoft Ignite to a city near you. The tour provides technical training led by Microsoft experts and your community. You’ll learn new ways to build solutions, migrate and manage infrastructure, and connect with local industry leaders and peers.

[cta title=”MSI20 – Hybrid management technologies” button=”MSI20″ link=”https://zurich.myignitetour.techcommunity.microsoft.com/sessions/87070?WT.mc_id=thomasmaurer-blog-thmaure”]Tailwind Traders has now migrated the majority of their server hosts from Windows Server 2008 R2 to Windows Server 2019. Now, they are interested in the Azure hybrid technologies that are readily available to them. In this session, learn how Tailwind Traders began using Windows Admin Center and Azure Arc to manage its fleet of Windows Server computers and integrated hybrid technologies, such as Azure File Sync, Azure Site Recovery, and Azure Update Management, to improve deployment performance and manageability.[/cta]

[cta title=”MCO20 – Azure governance and management” button=”MCO20″ link=”https://zurich.myignitetour.techcommunity.microsoft.com/sessions/87039?WT.mc_id=thomasmaurer-blog-thmaure”]Tailwind Traders’ deployments are occurring in an ad hoc manner, primarily driven by lack of protocol and unapproved decisions by various operators or employees. Some deployments even violate the organization’s compliance obligations, such as being deployed in an unencrypted manner without DR protection. After bringing their existing IaaS VM fleet under control, Tailwind Traders wants to ensure future deployments comply with policy and organizational requirements. In this session, walk through the processes and technologies that will keep Tailwind Traders’ deployments in good standing with the help of Azure Blueprints, Azure Policy, role-based access control (RBAC), and more.[/cta]

I am looking forward to speaking at Microsoft Ignite The Tour (MITT) 2019-2020 in Zürich. Let me know in the comments if you are going too, and I hope to see you there!
