[Post Event] ITCamp 2015, Cluj-Napoca

By
Here we are again. At the 5th edition of ITCamp, organized in Cluj-Napoca, Romania. There were 2 days, full with new and interesting content. This year there were a lot of topics that were discussed, from technical one to business one. We saw not only Azure, but also AWS, JavaScript, Node.JS and yes the new C# 6.0.
There were more than 500 people that attested to this event. With 4 tracks in parallel, it was pretty hard to decide what session to join. As usually, the list of speakers was attractive. Speakers like Paula Januszkiewicz, Andy Malone, Daniel Petri , Andy Cross,  David Guard or Peter Leeson had great and interesting sessions.
The list of speakers is long, I invite you to check the fallowing link: http://itcamp.ro/speakers.html
On top of this, we had two panels – a security and a cloud one. Great and challenging questions were putted during this panels.
See you next year!

I had the opportunity to have a 60 minutes sessions where I talked about how we can scale above clouds limits – ‘How to scale above clouds limits’.
Below you can find the abstracts and slides from this session.

Abstract:
The number of devices that are online increases every day. The quantity of digital content that is produced every year sets new record each time. Last but not least clients are more and more demanding. A cloud provider offers us a great basket of resources but we need to know how to use and manage them.
In this session we will talk about how to scale over this limits and how to be prepared for this kind of situations. If we are designing our system to be prepared to scale over cloud services limits then we will have a system that will be used in 5 year from now. We will talk about different scenarios when it is easy to reach different limits and we will learn how to overcome them.

Windows Docker Containers can make WIN32 API calls, use COM and ASP.NET WebForms

By
After the last post , I received two interesting questions related to Docker and Windows. People were interested if we do Win32 API calls from a Docker container and if there is support for COM. WIN32 Support To test calls to WIN32 API, let’s try to populate SYSTEM_INFO class. [StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)] public struct SYSTEM_INFO { public uint dwOemId; public uint dwPageSize; public uint lpMinimumApplicationAddress; public uint lpMaximumApplicationAddress; public uint dwActiveProcessorMask; public uint dwNumberOfProcessors; public uint dwProcessorType; public uint dwAllocationGranularity; public uint dwProcessorLevel; public uint dwProcessorRevision; } ... [DllImport("kernel32")] static extern void GetSystemInfo(ref SYSTEM_INFO pSI); ... SYSTEM_INFO pSI = new SYSTEM_INFO(...

Navigating Cloud Strategy after Azure Central US Region Outage

By
 Looking back, July 19, 2024, was challenging for customers using Microsoft Azure or Windows machines. Two major outages affected customers using CrowdStrike Falcon or Microsoft Azure computation resources in the Central US. These two outages affected many people and put many businesses on pause for a few hours or even days. The overlap of these two issues was a nightmare for travellers. In addition to blue screens in the airport terminals, they could not get additional information from the airport website, airline personnel, or the support line because they were affected by the outage in the Central US region or the CrowdStrike outage.   But what happened in reality? A faulty CrowdStrike update affected Windows computers globally, from airports and healthcare to small businesses, affecting over 8.5m computers. Even if the Falson Sensor software defect was identified and a fix deployed shortly after, the recovery took longer. In parallel with CrowdStrike, Microsoft provi...
