I’m excited to share that I’ll be speaking at the Hybrid Platform Conference 2026, taking place on September 28, 2026, in Amsterdam. The conference brings together IT professionals, architects, engineers, and decision-makers focused on Azure Local, Windows Server, hybrid cloud, and AI workloads. The event is now free to attend!
As someone who spends every day helping customers navigate topics such as digital sovereignty, hybrid cloud, resilience, AI infrastructure, and Azure Local, I’m looking forward to connecting with the community and exchanging ideas with industry experts, Microsoft product teams, MVPs, partners, and customers.
My Session: Digital Sovereignty at Cloud Scale: The Microsoft Sovereign Cloud Story
In my keynote,“Digital Sovereignty at Cloud Scale: The Microsoft Sovereign Cloud Story,” I’ll share insights into how organizations can embrace innovation while meeting increasingly complex sovereignty, compliance, regulatory, and resilience requirements.
We’ll explore:
- The evolving landscape of digital sovereignty
- The Microsoft Sovereign Cloud vision and strategy
- How Azure Local enables sovereign and hybrid cloud scenarios
- Building resilient architectures across public, private, and national cloud environments
- Preparing for AI and next-generation workloads in regulated industries
Whether you’re working in government, critical infrastructure, financial services, healthcare, defense, or any other highly regulated sector, this session will provide practical guidance and real-world perspectives.
A Great Lineup for Hybrid Cloud Enthusiasts
The event features a strong lineup of sessions covering topics such as:
- Azure Local innovations and roadmap
- Windows Server technologies
- Azure Virtual Desktop on Azure Local
- AI inferencing and modern hybrid platforms
- Real-world deployment experiences and best practices
The conference is designed as a focused, single-track experience, making it an excellent opportunity to learn, network, and engage directly with both the community and the people building these technologies.
