We moved our TFS to the cloud
Previously at SSW, we had TFS on-premises (at
tfs.ssw.com.au) and TFS in the cloud (at
ssw.visualstudio.com) and I let the devs choose
where they wanted to place new projects. Initially
I was surprised to notice that most projects went
in the cloud. Eventually I noticed they *always*
chose the cloud. So I'm happy to announce we have
migrated everything.
Our TFS migration went well and if we did today,
it would go even smoother. We have a good
relationship with the Visual Studio and TFS teams,
and for our migration we had some bumpy bits.
Rogan Ferguson from the TFS Database Import
Service Team helped us plenty and we gave some
feedback and it was impressive to see the fixes
done so quickly
Keep reading to find out how we did it, and
what the benefits are.

.NET Core is the most powerful and flexible
version ever! Much of the day-to-day code
you write will be the same - but much of the
architecture and how your project fits
together has changed.
We will provide you with a solid foundation
in .NET Core, an understanding of why you
should be using .NET Core, and the
capability to build an enterprise
application using the new stack.

Sydney .NET User Group: An Introduction to
Data Science on Azure - Nick Wienholt
Microsoft Azure provides a rich canvas for
data science research and execution. Two of
the key components of the data science
toolkit are Azure Notebooks and the Azure
Machine Learning service. In this
presentation, Nick will introduce the core
concepts of data science and show how a data
set can be imported, analysed and used as
the basis for a predictive model using these
two Azure components.
Azure Notebooks are an implementation of the
Jupyter notebook technology (formerly
IPython notebooks) that allows code and
markdown to be created in a browser document
for interactive execution. Jupyter notebooks
attach to a back-end kernel for code
execution, and can support much greater
computational loads and richer functionality
than client-side Javascript technology. By
supporting the mixing of documentation and
live code, Azure Notebooks are an ideal
technology for conducting and sharing data
exploration exercises, and solve a number of
issues that occur when analysis and the
documentation are handled separately. Azure
Notebooks currently support Python 2, Python
3, R and F#.
Azure Machine Learning is part of the
Cortana Intelligence suite, and allows for
the interactive creation of experiments
supporting a wide range of machine learning
algorithms. The machine learning experiments
can be evaluated for effectiveness, and
easily turned into web service endpoints for
machine learning prediction based on live
data.
This presentation assumes no prior
experience with machine learning, and will
introduce the topics for a traditional
software developers perspective.
