[Post Event] Cloud Conference 2018, Bucharest

By
Today (April 19th, 2018) I had the great opportunity to be invited as a speaker at "Conferinta de Cloud." I was amazed to find out that around 300 people join this event, that it is dedicated to cloud and Microsoft Azure.
The event has two tracks, one dedicated to the business side and a second one dedicated to technical one. I was surprised to discover that almost half of them were interested in the business track. This is a good indicator that confirms us that cloud is here to stay and Microsoft Azure it is used more and [more in business.

I delivered a session focused on things that we need to take into account at the moment when we start a project on the cloud. People forget to check the most basic things when they kick-off the project. Because of this, they are ending in situations where the consumption is over the limits or data is public accessible.

Session slides can be found below:
Title: Day Zero In A Cloud Project
Abstract: In this session, we will take a look at what we need to keep on our radar when we start a new project inside the cloud. When not only us but also clients are new in cloud ecosystem, we need to be aware of small things that can make a difference or secure the success of the project. Things like security, environment isolation and access controls are just a tiny part of the things that we need be aware. There will be examples from real life projects and hands-on implementations inside Microsoft Azure. After joining this session, you will have an initial view on what things we shall be aware when we start a new project inside the cloud.

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 Understanding Modernisation Beyond Migration Database modernisation is distinct from merely relocating an outdated database to Azure.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...

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...
