Advanced Technology Days – a well-known IT conference in Croatia, will be held this December in the Plaza Event Center, Zagreb.
The conference will focus on three fields: DevOps, Artificial Intelligence and Business IT.
Our COO, Hrvoje Kusulja, will talk about an Azure Active Directory novelty – Google login for external B2B users. He will also show a demo how to set up and activate this new AAD feature. This is a pretty nice feature if you are an Office 365 user and you want to share documents with external Google users.
You should definitely come if you work in the IT industry.
A hybrid cloud platform that lets you run Azure services on-premises – this is Azure Stack, an integrated and optimized system of software and matching hardware.
It combines IaaS (infrastructure-as-a-service) and PaaS (platform-as-a-service) functionalities in a software stack that extends and enhances on-premises data center environments. You can now deliver Azure-based Cloud Services from your own data center, with fast application and service deployment using standard Azure tools and APIs.
Also, Azure Stack enables you to spread and integrate apps and services onto the public Azure cloud, for practically unlimited scalability.
How does Azure Stack work?
Here is the layout of the Azure Stack architecture:
