Hackathon - Cluj-Napoca, 11.12.2011

By
In acest weekend in Cluj-Napoca a avut loc Hackathon organizat de catre Microsoft Student Partents.
Am participat la acest eveniment ca si membru din juriu. La finalul celor 24 de ore, cele 14 echipe care s-au inscris in concus au  avut niste aplicatii foarte reusite. Ne-a fost destul de greu sa alegem echipele castitoare.
Locul intai a fost ocupat de echipa DOTDOTDOT cu aplicatia TweetThePlace.
Aplicaţie care permite să laşi mesaje (şi poze) într-un anumit Place. Nu poţi vedea/posta un mesaj dacă nu te aflii în apropierea Place-ului respectiv. Suportă şi live stream folosind push notification astfel încăt dacă te aflii lâncă un Place şi se postează un mesaj la acel Place, eşti notificat. 
Vreau sa felicit toate echipele pentru ca au reusit in 24 de ore sa scrie niste aplicatii formidabile. Sper sa vad o parte din aceste aplicatii pe Marketplace.
Poze de la acest eveniment: http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.288186067889752.63330.148534875188206&type=3

How to audit an Azure Cosmos DB

By
In this post, we will talk about how we can audit an Azure Cosmos DB database. Before jumping into the problem let us define the business requirement: As an Administrator I want to be able to audit all changes that were done to specific collection inside my Azure Cosmos DB. The requirement is simple, but can be a little tricky to implement fully. First of all when you are using Azure Cosmos DB or any other storage solution there are 99% odds that you’ll have more than one system that writes data to it. This means that you have or not have control on the systems that are doing any create/update/delete operations. Solution 1: Diagnostic Logs Cosmos DB allows us activate diagnostics logs and stream the output a storage account for achieving to other systems like Event Hub or Log Analytics. This would allow us to have information related to who, when, what, response code and how the access operation to our Cosmos DB was done. Beside this there is a field that specifies what was th...

Why Database Modernization Matters for AI

By
  When companies transition to the cloud, they typically begin with applications and virtual machines, which is often the easier part of the process. The actual complexity arises later when databases are moved. To save time and effort, cloud adoption is more of a cloud migration in an IaaS manner, fulfilling current, but not future needs. Even organisations that are already in the cloud find that their databases, although “migrated,” are not genuinely modernised. This disparity becomes particularly evident when they begin to explore AI technologies. Understanding Modernisation Beyond Migration Database modernisation is distinct from merely relocating an outdated database to Azure. It's about making your data layer ready for future needs, like automation, real-time analytics, and AI capabilities. AI needs high throughput, which can be achieved using native DB cloud capabilities. When your database runs in a traditional setup (even hosted in the cloud), in that case, you will enc...

AI ROI without hype: a practical way to measure value using risk adjustment + Azure Copilot example

By
Most people know what ROI means, but it’s harder to calculate for AI projects. The numbers are less predictable than with traditional platforms because many AI projects never reach stable production. IDC says only about 44% of custom AI apps and 53% of third-party AI apps make it from proof of concept to production. That’s why it’s important to look at ROI through a risk lens, not just cost versus benefit. One useful approach is to use a risk-adjusted formula: AI ROI = (AI Business Value Income / (Initial Investment + Annual Costs)) × Success Probability where, >AI Business Value Income (over N years) Consider a 2 to 3 year period and include both direct and indirect value: Direct: time saved, fewer tickets, higher conversion, lower fraud. Indirect: improved customer or employee experience and quicker decisions. For these, use measurable stand-ins like CSAT, churn, time to resolution, or hours saved, and estimate conservatively. >Initial Investment This covers more than just buil...
