This document provides an overview of the Windows Azure cloud computing platform. It discusses the types of cloud services including Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS). It then describes several key Windows Azure services like Compute, Storage, Database, Content Delivery Network, Reporting, Virtual Machines, Service Bus, Access Control, Caching, Virtual Network, and Marketplace. The presentation encourages Singapore companies using Windows Azure to contact Microsoft to have their applications featured. It concludes with inviting questions from attendees.

IaaS vs. PaaS: Windows Azure Compute SolutionsIdo Flatow
Several years ago, life in Windows Azure was simple. For background services, we used a worker role, and for a Web application we used a Web role. Today, with the addition of Web Sites and Virtual Machines, the decision where and how to deploy got a bit harder. In this session we will explore the various hosting options offered by the Windows Azure platform, the steps required to deploy to each environment, and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each solution.
In Zusammenarbeit mit Microsoft und SofwareOne AG konnten wir am 3. Februar 2016 einen Workshop zur Microsoft-SQL-Lizenzierung durchführen. Die Referenten Alexander Egli, Beat Weissenberger und Detlef Werner gaben den Teilnehmern einen detaillierten Überblick über die Änderungen in der Lizenzierung von SQL Server 2012 sowie der aktuellen Lizenzierung von SQL Server 2014. Für die Version 2014 wurden folgende Szenarien besprochen:
Core-Lizenzierung
Lizenzierung in virtuellen Umgebungen
Hybride Szenarien mit Integration von Cloud-Komponenten
Ebenfalls wurden die Migration und Kostenbeispiele besprochen.

My presentation at the #CDCGermany in 2019 Frankfurt/Hanau
Windows Azure is jam packed with features to choose from for building web applications and services that scale - but there are a core set of choices and features that are applicable to most scenarios. This session will get you up to speed on the essential features developers should be aware of, and how to apply them in practical scenarios. You’ll learn why cloud services are the typical choice for feature-rich applications, and learn what you can’t live without in terms of startup tasks, SMTP services, blob storage, message queuing options, diagnostics, monitoring and security features.

Moving Web Apps to the Cloud - Iowa User Group Tour, Feb 2012Eric D. Boyd
As a developer with years of experience developing web apps using ASP.NET, SQL Server, Windows Server and Active Directory, how do you move to the cloud with Windows Azure? How can you apply your existing skills and experience to developing cloud apps in Windows Azure? In this session, we will take a simple, traditional ASP.NET app and walk through the migration to Windows Azure. We'll discuss the important considerations, practices, architectural differences, challenges, advantages and economic benefits to consider when migrating to Windows Azure.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

"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.
The Art of the Pitch: WordPress Relationships and SalesLaura Byrne
Clients don’t know what they don’t know. What web solutions are right for them? How does WordPress come into the picture? How do you make sure you understand scope and timeline? What do you do if sometime changes?
All these questions and more will be explored as we talk about matching clients’ needs with what your agency offers without pulling teeth or pulling your hair out. Practical tips, and strategies for successful relationship building that leads to closing the deal.
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.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
