Lunchtime

What

It’s really easy to get started quickly and go fast with Azure. But what happens when the business starts asking for compliance, security and cost control? In the past this has meant slowing down and implementing large and complex governance frameworks. But now you can have control and go fast with a suite of Azure Governance services and features that were announced at Ignite 2018: Azure Blueprints, Resource Graph, Management Groups and Azure Policy (ARM Policies).

In this talk, Daniel Larsen (Technical Evangelist at Microsoft) will demonstrate the new Azure Governance features in the Azure Portal and CLI (Command line interface), and how to quickly implement pragmatic and sensible policies and controls that keep the business happy without slowing developers down. These great new features have drawn from field experience with some of Azure’s largest customers, so that everyone can benefit from the right amount of control and go fast.

As usual, arrive at 11:30am and get some lunch. The session starts at 11:45am and goes for an hour.

Network programmability 101 with practical examples

Although there is still the need for old-style command-line interfaces and SNMP, the industry is converging on NETCONF/Yang for management.

The Yang data models are not necessarily human-readable friendly, but they do make automation and programmability easier. In the end these enhancements and interfaces should make the entire systems easier to use and monitor. Some programming skills are useful though…
