I will be speaking at TechEd North America 2014

Reading Time: 2 minutes

This week I’m in Houston for Microsoft’s 2014 TechEd North America event.

Yesterday, at the TechExpo, I ran into a couple of familiar faces. I talked to Ben Armstrong for a while, together with Didier van Hoye, MVP Hyper-V. While we were getting drinks for the guys at the booths, we ran into Mike Resseler, MVP System Center Cloud and Datacenter Management and working for Veeam.

It’s a small world, and what happened next illustrates exactly how small.

While I was discussing Mike Resseler’s PCIT-B341 Upgrading Active Directory the Safe Way: Using Virtualization Technologies session with him, I asked him if he was expecting any hard Active Directory-related questions. I offered to take a seat in the front row, so I could help him out. You know, that’s what Microsoft Most Valuable Professionals (MVPs) do…

Mike thought about it for a moment, but then replied:

“I’d much rather have you on stage with me.”

 

So, there you have it. I’ll be speaking at TechEd North America 2014. Glimlach

Here’s some more information on the session:

PCIT-B341 Upgrading Active Directory the Safe Way: Using Virtualization Technologies

Speaker(s): Mike Resseler, Sander Berkouwer
Track: People-centric IT

Upgrading technologies can always be a challenge and dangerous. By using your backup solution and virtualization technology (Hyper-V) you can try out everything upfront on your real production data without risking destroying the environment. The Change Management Process will become much easier.
