The story of ITCamp
We started thinking about ITCamp in late 2008, together with the Microsoft MVPs and community friends in Romania at that time. We realized the one thing missing back then in Romania (and maybe in the region) was a very good conference on Microsoft technologies where we would have liked to go in order to learn new things and to get to know renowned speakers from around the world.
At that time, we used to travel quite a bit and spend a lot of money to get to conferences such as Microsoft's TechEd along with other MVPs and colleagues in the local IT community. We only found what we were looking for in remote places such as Barcelona, Amsterdam, Berlin, Madrid, or the US -anywhere but here in Romania.
In 2011 we finally got together and organized the first edition of ITCamp. Back then, it was only designed to validate our assumptions about the local market, and it turned out to be a huge successas we passed the test of the audience: people came in larger numbers than we expected (ITCamp 2011 had over 200 attendees) and went home satisfied, and we knew that we will have them back for a second edition.
ITCamp has evolved since then - last year we had 440 participants, 40+ sessions on 4 technical tracks, with great speakers from all over the world as well as from the local IT community. This year's edition will change a few things.

This is the perfect moment to book your seat. There is a special price for early bird http://itcamp.ro/register.html

Why Database Modernization Matters for AI

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 Understanding Modernisation Beyond Migration Database modernisation is distinct from merely relocating an outdated database to Azure.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

Cloud Myths: Migrating to the cloud is quick and easy (Pill 2 of 5 / Cloud Pills)

The idea that migration to the cloud is simple, straightforward and rapid is a wrong assumption. It’s a common misconception of business stakeholders that generates delays, budget overruns and technical dept. A migration requires laborious planning, technical expertise and a rigorous process.  Migrations, especially cloud migrations, are not one-size-fits-all journeys. One of the most critical steps is under evaluation, under budget and under consideration. The evaluation phase, where existing infrastructure, applications, database, network and the end-to-end estate are evaluated and mapped to a cloud strategy, is crucial to ensure the success of cloud migration. Additional factors such as security, compliance, and system dependencies increase the complexity of cloud migration.  A misconception regarding lift-and-shits is that they are fast and cheap. Moving applications to the cloud without changes does not provide the capability to optimise costs and performance, leading to ...

Cloud Myths: Cloud is Cheaper (Pill 1 of 5 / Cloud Pills)

Cloud Myths: Cloud is Cheaper (Pill 1 of 5 / Cloud Pills) The idea that moving to the cloud reduces the costs is a common misconception. The cloud infrastructure provides flexibility, scalability, and better CAPEX, but it does not guarantee lower costs without proper optimisation and management of the cloud services and infrastructure. Idle and unused resources, overprovisioning, oversize databases, and unnecessary data transfer can increase running costs. The regional pricing mode, multi-cloud complexity, and cost variety add extra complexity to the cost function. Cloud adoption without a cost governance strategy can result in unexpected expenses. Improper usage, combined with a pay-as-you-go model, can result in a nightmare for business stakeholders who cannot track and manage the monthly costs. Cloud-native services such as AI services, managed databases, and analytics platforms are powerful, provide out-of-the-shelve capabilities, and increase business agility and innovation. H...
