By
Registration link

 Codecamp is organizing in Cluj-Napoca the Windows Azure Bootcamp. This free event is part of the Global Windows Azure Bootcamp. The materials that will be used are based on Windows Azure Training Kit (each speaker may customize the training kits).
This one day deep dive class will get you up to speed on developing for Windows Azure. The class includes a trainer with deep real world experience with Windows Azure, as well as a series of labs so you can practice what you just learned.

 Awesome. How much does it cost?
This event is FREE to the attendees.

 What do I need to bring?
You will need to bring your own laptop and have it preloaded with Visual Studio 2010 or Visual Studio 2012 and the last Windows Azure SDK. Please do the installation upfront as there will be no time to troubleshoot installations during the day.

 Is this for beginners?
Yes and no. The local trainers will use the Windows Azure Training Kit to guide you to the basics. We’ll also be running a massive scalability experiment that may bring one of the Windows Azure datacenters down!

 Agenda:
08:45 - 09:00 Registration

 09:00 - 10:30  Hands-on Windows Azure Service Bus, Radu Vunvulea
Durring this hands-on lab we will discover how to manage topics and subscriptions on Service Bus. Working with messages, filters and death letters will be practice in details.

 10:30 - 12:00 Operations and maintenance of Windows Azure applications, Mihai Tătăran
A short hands-on training with some of the tasks needed to be covered by the support team of an Azure application. Automatic deployments, updates, backups / recovery tasks, etc.

 12:00 - 13:30 Building Windows 8 Applications using Windows Mobile Services, Mihai Dan Nadăș
In this hands-on lab you will learn how to combine the fluency of Windows 8 applications with the power of Windows Azure: From a Windows 8 Style UI application, you will consume an ASP.NET MVC 4 Web API service published in Windows Azure Web Sites, and store your data in a Windows Azure SQL Database. In addition, you will learn how to configure the Windows Push Notification Services (WNS) in your app to send toast notifications from your service to all the registered clients.

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...
