TechReady 14 Report … T-3 days and a going back to the future

  • Article

The TechReady event is an internal Microsoft event, so I cannot cover any of the event content. However, I can try to capture the vibe and the activities by the ALM Rangers highlighting the bridging, collaboration and sheer passion that the Rangers community is pouring into this event.

My agenda for the next three days is Windows Azure development and  trying to clarify the era of the  “cloud”.  Go to https://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/develop/overview/ for a good starting point and a free trial of this exciting?!? technology.

Pictures taken today …
