JAXSPUG April 2016 - Staying in the Know with Office 365Scott Hoag
Office 365 is so much more than just email, instant messaging and file storage. When your data is combined with cloud-driven intelligence and analytics you can discover new, relevant information and people based on who you work with and the content you work on. With personalized insights into how you interact with your data and those around you day-to-day, Office 365 can deliver the right information to you automatically.
Join us as we explore the power of the Office Graph and Microsoft Delve for end users. We’ll discuss how the features of Delve can not only surface data for your users, but also act as a gateway to other Office 365 services such as search, Yammer, and Office 365 Video.

March Sydney Office 365 Meetup - Office 365 and Hybrid Solutions... what work...Scott Hoag
Going to The Cloud(tm) doesn't mean we need to start over. Organisations big and small can leverage Office 365 with their on-premises systems, gaining the agility of a hosted solution that is always up-to-date while adhering to our current policies for compliance and security. If you've ever heard the term "Hybrid SharePoint", but want to understand what it really means and what you can really do with it when it comes to Office 365 and SharePoint Online, this is the session for you. We'll walk through the Hybrid models and the advantages and disadvantages of each.
In this session we'll discuss the various aspects of why an organization may wish to stay in a hybrid solution with both on-premises and cloud hosted solutions that are integrated with one another. Further, migration tips and tricks, planning techniques and processes will be discussed.
This is the tale of a project for a client with a "Cloud First" strategy, and how the client was unprepared for the implications and assumptions of the strategy.
We will explore the assumptions implied by the "Cloud First" strategy, and how, as they were tested, the design of the solution went from "Cloud First" to "Cloud, if possible" and finally to "Cloud, if we're lucky".
Through analysis of the assumptions and the reasons they failed, you will gain a valuable insight into the nature of a "Cloud First" strategy and some of the implications of this strategy.
The scenario that is explored includes the use of Software as a Service and Platform as a Service elements such as Office 365, Project Online, Azure Data Factory, Azure SQL DB and PowerBI.

Canberra SPUG - February 2014 - Pitfalls of Migrating to SharePoint 2013Scott Hoag
Organisations of all sizes are begging their technical departments to setup SharePoint 2013 (and in some cases 2010!) so that they're able to make use of some of the capabilities introduced within the SharePoint platform. While designing, implementing, configuring and deploying a system in and of itself has its own set of challenges, migrating into that shiny, new environment can be even more difficult.
In this session, Scott Hoag will share some of his experiences and lessons learned tips, tricks and pointers for ensuring that you've considered the various aspects and challenges that arise during a migration effort. Further, as a bonus we’ll discuss strategies for how to not fall prey to some of these pitfalls, but demonstrate that you're a well-rounded professional that's thought things through before pressing the enter key.

The Data View Web Part allows you to render information from multiple sources – SQL, SharePoint or Web Services – into one combined list. But, with the Data View Web Part and SharePoint lists, typically you can only select other lists from within the same site. This isn’t useful if you are trying to roll-up data from multiple lists located through various teams’ sites. Creating Web Service connections to SharePoint lists in other sites allows you to query and render data from multiple sites into one combined view. View our slide deck to find out more.

How to Get Nonprofit Office 365 Cloud SubscriptionsTechSoup
Have you heard about Microsoft Office 365 and are ready to use Microsoft cloud solutions, but unsure of how to get started? We’ll walk you through what subscriptions are available to nonprofits, how you can learn more about making the right choices for your organization, and your options for how to request the licenses you need. This webinar is best suited for those who are ready to explore moving to Office 365 or that already have a Microsoft nonprofit cloud account set up. In this webinar, we will discuss:
- What Office 365 licenses are available to nonprofits
- How to get qualified for purchasing licenses
- Requesting your licenses
- Ways TechSoup can help you through this process
It's always been a dilemma -- do you invest in servers, licenses and people to set up and maintain a fully controllable SharePoint infrastructure in-house, or is it time to explore hosting SharePoint off-premise? Legal IT professionals have been struggling with this decision for years.
The on-premise option offers peace of mind from a security and controllability standpoint, but comes saddled with high costs, a demand for resources and limited scalability. SharePoint Online, on the other hand, alleviates the burden associated with SharePoint on-premise by removing the need for servers, software licenses and personnel, and can be rolled out to a large pool of people virtually overnight. However, you'll still need support for integration projects. Join us as we discuss the pros and cons of each option and give you recommendations based on our experiences, deployments and feedback.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
