Mark Russinovich - Strategic Architect Forum 2015 - Building Applications for Azure - Lessons from Scale
As architects, you're thinking of ways to build "cloud-scale" into your applications. Mark will share insights gained on the high-scale battlefield from Microsoft Azure and large Azure customers that can help you create more manageable, highly available, and scalable applications. Using real-world cases studies of customer applications that ran into scalability or performance problems, he explains how Azure's architecture influences optimal application architectures and shows how leveraging that information made these applications successful. Whether you're creating and managing small or large cloud applications, you'll better understand how to get the most out of the cloud and Azure.
Sam Guckenheimer - Strategic Architect Forum 2015 - DevOps: The Second Decade of Agile
Agile businesses are embracing the practices of DevOps. They use multidisciplinary teams, in which development and operations collaborate, with agile schedules and a common product backlog. They manage technical debt intentionally, focus on the flow of customer value, think of hypotheses rather than "requirements", rely on data and evidence to support and improve those hypotheses, experiment continuously, operate a live site culture, and manage infrastructure elastically. They measure remediation in minutes and improvements in days. This talk will cover best practices from the industry and Microsoft teams in the transformation to DevOps.
