Azure Saturdays
Welcome to the second Azure Saturdays event by Azure Skåne.
Here is a look at the rich lineup of outstanding speakers planned for this event:
Session 1: Introducing the Azure Cloud Debugging Tool
Speaker: Tore Nestenius
“As I prepared for the AZ-204 certification, I developed a tool designed to aid in learning and troubleshooting Azure projects. I’m excited to unveil this open-source tool for the first time in this talk at Azure Skåne. I’ll be sharing the inspiration behind its creation, the process of building it, and how it can become an invaluable resource in your Azure projects.”
Session 2: Microsoft Cloud Security Best Practices in Azure Well-Architected Framework
Speaker: Mats Warnolf
This session will cover a range of important MS Cloud security aspects and best practices such as Security architecture in Azure Well-Architected Framework, Zero-trust principles and a brief look into Defender & Sentinel.
Session 3: DefaultAzureCredentials Under the Hood
Speaker: Tore Nestenius
Azure developers often use the DefaultAzureCredential class for authentication, but how does it really work under the hood, and when should we use it? In this presentation, I’ll explore its inner workings, highlight potential challenges, and show you how to use it effectively. We’ll also look at the ChainedTokenCredential class and when it might be a better choice.
Session 4: The future of generative AI and LLMs - limitations and future implications in Azure AI Studio
GUEST Speaker: Erik David Johnson
In this talk, Erik will enlighten us on how LLMs work under the hood and current applications in Azure AI Studio. Then, with an outset in his internationally recognized research in Language Technology and AI, he explains the limitations of current LLMs and what more will probably come up in AI world in the future - both in Azure AI studio and for GenAI in general.
