Microsoft Teams is a chat and collaboration platform for Microsoft Office 365 customers designed to simplify group work. It integrates with other Microsoft services to allow for shared files, calendars, collaborative editing, and switching between voice, video and text chat. Teams replaces Skype for Business as Microsoft's primary collaboration tool. It is available to most Office 365 subscribers worldwide in 19 languages. Teams improves group collaboration by tying all Office 365 services together for efficiency. It is group-based, allows persistent chat, file sharing, web meetings, voice and video calls, and incorporates services like SharePoint, OneNote, and Planner.

As we all know, more and more organizations are starting to question “Do we or do we not implement Office 365?”. However, as these discussions are taking place; governance is rarely addressed or considered. The main reason is that the majority believe that once they have implemented governance that they are done; unless there is an update such as a server name change or an employee change (such as a departure or addition). During the initial planning around governance it is likely that there were discussions around auditing of the governance document and potential quarterly reviews to ensure that the document is up to date and still fits the business. However, it is common to forget that after that fact; even though it is documented “within the governance document”.
Governance becomes even more important with Office 365 just because its cloud based and ever changing with new and deprecated features on a pretty regular basis. This means all of the content, backup, recovery, etc. are all handled by Microsoft and you have virtually no control over it (Can you say MAJOR SLA impact?). In this session we will review the areas of concern and how they can be addressed within the governance document, the importance of reviewing the document frequently; and ways to make the information available to your internal SharePoint Community. In addition, we will review the features of Office 365 that will have a major impact on SharePoint and Office Apps. We will review each of these applications and the areas of importance that should be addressed in the governance document, as well as why each of them are important.

SharePoint Governance: stories, myths, legends and real lifeToni Frankola
SharePoint governance starts with a 600-page document. At our 30-person company, we need a 40-person SharePoint Governance committee, and nobody can determine why a housekeeper has access to the governance document.
Have you heard this type of statement? We most certainly have. In this session, Toni will bust myths like these by providing a workable approach to SharePoint governance in small and large enterprises. We will talk about setting policies as well as what makes sense and what doesn’t. We will break down the governance plan and examine its pieces. Most importantly, we will talk about implementing these policies based on real-life use cases, where no one reads 600-page documents.
Session highlights:
- Developing a workable governance plan
- Setting realistic governance policies
- Automatizing policies implementation
Microsoft Teams is becoming Office 365’s primary collaboration tool that brings together people, conversations, and content required for a digital workspace for high performing teams.

Introduction to Microsoft Teams
Top use cases, business scenarios, and best practices
Office 365 tools to be configured before enabling Teams
Collab365 - Modern collaboration in teams and projects powered by Office 365Jasper Oosterveld
Office 365 is the collaboration toolkit for businesses. We can choose between SharePoint, Office 365 Groups, Yammer and Microsoft Teams. Choice can be good but doesn’t necessarily make our lives easier.

After this session, you have a clear understanding of the different tools and how these connect with each other. Making a choice has become a little bit easier.
SP Fest Denver - O365 Governance: One Area Cloud May Not Be SimplerStacy Deere
Random things we all typically hear when it comes to Governance…
• Not on top of the list right now
• Not in the budget
• We’ll get to it later
• Not really seeing the need…
I have yet to hear 1 valid reason as to why Governance should not be completed, maintained, or approved in budgets. Governance really is not an option in any organization if you want your processes and procedures followed by employees. Each time I have been involved in a project where governance was put on the back burner there have been issues with not knowing what other departments processes were, building themselves into a corner, not meeting service level agreements, and the list goes on and on. If there is no one source of truth in how all the functions of the business run, how are you ever going to build a solid foundation and keep it running at the level it needs to run so that your organization can be successful? In this session we will review what governance is, how it can be useful, how you can get started, maintain it, and most importantly how to get it approved!
SharePoint Site Architecture: Flat, Deep or somewhere in the middle?Joanne Klein
Should you go deep with your SharePoint site architecture using only a few site collections, or should you stay flat by having a lot of site collections and very few/no sub sites within? In this "he says, she says" session, Dave and Joanne will share pros and cons of different Site Architecture options in SharePoint. Whether you've been in SharePoint for awhile or in the throes of a migration project, it's never too late to re-evaluate the way you've planned out your sites. Like most things in technology, decisions you make today may cause re-work down the road. This session isn't about what is right in ALL cases, but it will arm you with the knowledge you need to make an informed decision on the site architecture that will work best for your environment.

Create a Compliance Strategy for Office 365Erica Toelle
SharePoint, OneDrive, Microsoft Teams, Exchange, Skype…there are a lot of collaboration tools for creating and content in the Microsoft stack. Highly regulated and government organizations have advanced compliance and records management needs, some of which are tricky to meet with out of the box Microsoft tools, such as Cloud App Security, Azure Information Protection and Advanced Data Governance in Office 365. How can you ensure that content is retained properly for compliance purposes and that the proper processes are in place to ensure compliance?
In this session, you will learn about Microsoft’s out of the box compliance and records management features, as well as how to extend them to meet advanced requirements. Whether you are a decision maker, IT Pro tasked with implementation, or an information management professional tasked with compliance, this workshop is for you.
Everything you need to know about sharing files in SharePoint & OneDrive - SP...Drew Madelung
You can't spell SharePoint without 'Share'. Sharing is a core concept within the modern workplace and it is powered by SharePoint and OneDrive but there are complexities that lie underneath the covers that you need to know about.
Collaboration lives at the core of a workplace and collaboration is built around effective sharing. Getting content securely to the right people at the right time keeps a company moving. But do you really know everything that is out there? Who has access to the content? Is the content still secure?
Learn move about what you can do as a user to share your content, what happens after it has been shared, and how to control content sharing as an administrator.

Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
