AS Macro: The Effectiveness of UK Macro-Economic Policiestutor2u
We have considered the three key areas of macroeconomic policy – monetary policy, fiscal policy and supply-side policies.
In the longest essay questions on data response papers examiners often ask students to consider how effective these are when they are used to manage the economy. How can we judge whether the performance of the economy is improving as a result of them? In this session we will remember how to assess macroeconomic performance, think about some of the issues with measuring growth,
and focus on ways to evaluate the effectiveness of different policies

Scaling Wix with microservices architecture and multi-cloud platforms - Reve...Aviran Mordo
In 6 years, Wix grew from a small startup with traditional system architecture (based on a monolithic server running on Tomcat, Hibernate, and MySQL) to a company that serves 60 million users. To keep up with this tremendous growth, Wix’s architecture had to evolve from a monolithic system to microservices, using some interesting patterns like CQRS to achieve our goal of building a blazing fast highly scalable and highly available system.

Scaling wix with microservices architecture devoxx London 2015Aviran Mordo
Many small startups build their systems on top of a traditional toolset like Tomcat, Hibernate, and MySQL. These systems are used because they facilitate easy development and fast progress, but many of them are monolithic and have limited scalability. So as a startup grows, the team is confronted with the problem of how to evolve the system and make it scalable.
Facing the same dilemma, Wix.com grew from 0 to 60 million users in just a few years. Facing some interesting challenges, like performance and availability. Traditional performance solutions, such as caching, would not help due to a very long tail problem which causes caching to be highly inefficient. And because every minute of downtime means customers lose money, the product needed to have near 100% availability.
Solving these issues required some interesting and out-of-the-box thinking, and this talk will discuss some of these strategies: building a highly preformant, highly available and highly scalable system; and leveraging microservices architecture and multi-cloud platforms to help build a very efficient and cost-effective system.

Slice up your Microsoft 365 Tenant with Administrative UnitsJoel Oleson
Microsoft 365 Tenant Administration: Understanding Microsoft 365 Administrative Units
1. Understanding Delegating local Admin Activities With Administrative Units Organizations may be divided by region, business unit, or department but rely on a single tenant. How do they assign rights to a local service desk to only the users and groups they support?

Microsoft 365 Tenant Administration: Understanding Microsoft 365 Administrati...Joel Oleson
Microsoft 365 M365 Management Made Easy
Do you struggle with administering your Microsoft 365 tenant? Have you ever wished there was an easy way to segment your tenant so you could delegate permissions more granularly to group or site admins?
Microsoft has introduced Administrative Units and they are a great start to creating boundaries within your tenant for user and group administration but are they enough? What about the other Microsoft365 services not covered by Administrative Units?
Microsoft has also announced they’ll be introducing custom roles for Microsoft 365. While currently very limited, they do promise that you’ll be able to get more granular with the permissions you want to assign.
CoreView helps you to easily manage Microsoft 365 by combining multiple Microsoft Admin Centers into a single view so you no longer need to log into multiple admin centers to complete everyday tasks.
With Virtual Tenants (like OUs for Azure AD), you can also segment your tenant by geography, department, or any other AD attribute to limit the admin scope. Virtual Tenants can be applied to any Microsoft 365 object, so they’re not just limited to users and groups.
CoreView also has very granular permissions that allow you to adhere to the least privilege access policy recommended by Microsoft. CoreView permission sets can get as granular as a single attribute without giving the delegated administrator permission to do anything else.
You’ll also see how you can easily delegate the running of PowerShell scripts so once the script is created, anyone with proper CoreView permissions can execute it.
Register now to hear MVP Joel Oleson’s take on Admin Units, and how CoreView can help take them to the next level.

No matter where you are in your deployment we'll help you understand what success looks like and how to get there.
Securely Harden Microsoft 365 with Secure ScoreJoel Oleson
7 Ways to Harden and Secure Microsoft 365
1. Enable Secure Access for Users with Azure Active Directory MFA
2. Identify compromised identities or malicious insiders with Microsoft Defender for Identity
3. Protect and Encrypt Sensitive Data with Microsoft Information Protection

Sponsored by CoreView
“How do we operate as a multi-tenant environment while, from Microsoft’s perspective, on a single tenant? CoreView brought all of that to the table with the V-tenant capabilities. We can slice and dice administration into functional areas. We can have user managers, Teams managers, Teams administrators, or security administrators. All of those functions and feature sets are critical to the solution we have today”

Microsoft Groups Demystified: 5 Keys to Successful Group Management Joel Oleson
How are you handling Microsoft groups as you adopt more and more of the cloud? What should you do with your DLs? For hybrid environments, legacy groups can be a real struggle, and most organizations leave security groups in place while creating new ones in the cloud. Double the groups can mean double the frustration.
Join us for this webinar, where we’ll explore the history of security groups and distribution lists and dive deep into how best to approach users and strategies for on-premises and cloud group coexistence and synchronization. We’ll also explore the new Teams Information Boundaries and Unified Labeling and classifications to paint a clearer picture of security and classification in Microsoft 365.
This session will take comprehensive look at Microsoft “Groups end to end” and work to cover some common groups questions:
What about lifecycle and cleanup?
Policy & Naming standards?
Is write-back an option?
How do I sync my groups?
What can I do for coexistence and hybrid?
I want to copy my on-prem groups can I do that?
Can I setup my groups as dynamic or rule-based in the cloud (and potential additional costs)?

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.
