[Post Event] ITConnect, Cluj-Napoca, June 2024

By

On June 19th, I had the opportunity to share my view on AI in the Cloud during Connect.IT. The event focused on exploring the dynamics of the world of AI from an ethical and cloud point of view. 

My session covered the cloud strategy and architecture components and highlighted the importance of cloud modernization during the AI journey. You can find below the takeaway from my session:

The advancement of AI technology is absolutely critical, and there is no doubt that modernizing cloud applications is pivotal in unlocking AI systems' full potential.  The capabilities of AI, such as advanced algorithms and learning models, are undeniably vital, but they can only truly succeed when coupled with modernized, scalable, and efficient cloud infrastructure. The modernization of the cloud ensures that AI solutions are powerful and effective but also scalable, cost-efficient, secure, and capable of delivering real-time, actionable insights.  Thus, cloud application modernization undeniably lays the foundation that paves the road to a successful AI story.

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...
