Finally, Tech-Ed 2010 has started this Monday with the KeyNote session presented by Brad Anderson and the previous registration, tomorrow we could start to enjoy the sessions that Microsoft has prepared for this year. Many sessions about everything related with Cloud makes the event very, very interesting for me. This year instead to create a post for day I will try to group the posts based on the topics I would like to learn during the week: Cloud, System Center, Datacenter Optimization, Virtualization, and off course, Office 365 (Office, Exchange, Lync and SharePoint in the Cloud).
Regarding to the Keynote session, it was very interesting and we could see what are the pilars of the Microsoft strategy for the next future. System Center is the center of all related to Datacenter and Private Cloud implementation and management, BPOS or Office 365 is their bet for Cloud services, Windows Phone 7 a very serious competitor for iPhone and the rest of last generation phones, and Windows Azure Platform.
Evidently, many other topics were introduced and discussed during the presentation. Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 1 RC has been lanched with RemoteFX and Dynamic Memory as two of the most destacable features. These features will improve the VDI implementation using Microsoft operating systems. And we could see some presentations about Windows Azure platform and new features.
Regarding to the registration, we had some questions about the backpack that Microsoft would give to us this year. Every year they should give a very useful backpack to take your laptop, notebook and gifts from partners to the event; one year they gift a shoulder bag, other one a roller bag,… well finally the mistery was resolved… Microsoft gives to us an spectacular “Bread Bag”… Thank you Microsoft.
