Simon Bisson<p>As always, I spend the weeks after <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/msignite" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>msignite</span></a> going through the Book of News to find interesting things that may have been missed. This week my <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://flipboard.social/@InfoWorld" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>InfoWorld</span></a></span> column looks at the launch of Azure Managed Redis, enterprise grade in-memory caching.</p><p><a href="https://www.infoworld.com/article/3627839/enterprise-grade-caching-with-azure-managed-redis.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">infoworld.com/article/3627839/</span><span class="invisible">enterprise-grade-caching-with-azure-managed-redis.html</span></a></p>
Simon Bisson<p>Over at <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://flipboard.social/@InfoWorld" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>InfoWorld</span></a></span> I took a dive into Mark Russinovich's annual State of Azure presentation at <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/msignite" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>msignite</span></a>. As always lots to think about, especially Microsoft's drive to a serverless future and what it means for data center sustainability.</p><p><a href="https://www.infoworld.com/article/3622663/azure-hardware-innovations-and-the-serverless-cloud-future.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">infoworld.com/article/3622663/</span><span class="invisible">azure-hardware-innovations-and-the-serverless-cloud-future.html</span></a></p>
Simon Bisson<p>Time for another post-Ignite trip into the Book of News, and a deep dive into Azure AI Content Understanding. Microsoft rebuilds its original Azure Cognitive Services for the multi-model agent world. When I say they're all in on agents, I mean it.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/msignite" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>msignite</span></a></p><p><a href="https://www.infoworld.com/article/3617403/get-started-with-azure-ai-content-understanding.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">infoworld.com/article/3617403/</span><span class="invisible">get-started-with-azure-ai-content-understanding.html</span></a></p>

Jukka Niiranen<p>We heard the name "Copilot Control System" on many of the big stage keynote presentations at <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/MSIgnite" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MSIgnite</span></a> last week.</p><p>I tired to find out what it actually is. Finally, this slide was discovered, not from Ignite, but from a separate analyst bfiefing by MS.</p><p>Yeah, it's a "system" with <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/airquotes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>airquotes</span></a>.

It's vision stuff, like so much of Ignite. In 2025 they'll probably rebrand it anyway.😁</p>
Marc-André Moreau<p>Microsoft, in their wildest dreams, thinking what <a href="https://bsky.brid.gy/hashtag/msignite" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#msignite</a> attendees are doing today: "Copilot, cancel all my meetings, then book new meetings with every team within the organization to discuss how we can accelerate their Copilot adoption" Reality: "why can't I edit or access my meetings?"</p>
Marc-André Moreau<p>So, is everybody busy re-organizing their schedule after coming back from a week at <a href="https://bsky.brid.gy/hashtag/msignite" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#msignite</a>, causing Outlook calendars and Microsoft Teams to fail randomly? <a href="https://www.euronews.com/next/2024/11/25/microsoft-outlook-exchange-and-teams-calendar-are-down-worldwide" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">www.euronews.com/next/2024/11...</a><br><br><a href="https://www.euronews.com/next/2024/11/25/microsoft-outlook-exchange-and-teams-calendar-are-down-worldwide" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Microsoft Outlook, Exchange an...</a></p>
