Putting the "Team" into Microsoft Teams
I want to share an email I sent to the company. The way we
communicate is incredibly important and change can be hard. I'm
very proud of the way the guys continually embrace change. This
is a change that you might want to make in your organisation
too.
Hey @SSWAll,
A few of us have been trialling Microsoft Teams for many weeks
and I believe it is now ready for everyone at SSW to join the
fun.
To start with please do *all* Daily Scrums with Microsoft Teams
instead of using Skype. That will be a good start. If you are
happy then continue to expand your use of Microsoft Teams.
Making collaboration as simple as possible has always been a
fundamental need SSW and Microsoft have released Teams to help
make this easier. As with Skype, users can communicate directly
to other staff members via the "Chat" tab or, now you can use
the "Teams" tab to have a similar conversation with the group
you're working with.
It might one day even replace emails like this – but I'm not
ready to ditch email just yet! 😊
I know many of you love Skype. Change comes with some pain but I
believe the benefits of Teams and its integration will outweigh
the pain over the long time. Let me explain...
Keep reading to
find out why Microsoft Teams is so awesome.

.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: Get ready for modern DevOps
- Danijel Malik
Modern DevOps is a highway to greater business value
and it works cross-platform. Automated deployments
solved a handover problem, Application Monitoring
Platforms closed the feedback and crash reporting
gap, and containers made the "works on my machine"
stereotype real. Next mission: automated
environments.
In this session, Danijel will start by identifying
the common bad practices to give you some quick
wins. His experience starts from the smallest
businesses and extends to the largest businesses
including some of the largest banks. You will learn
why Zero Based Infrastructure is the next step of a
DevOps evolution, why Cloud is your best friend, and
how to integrate this approach back into your
deployment pipeline. You will walk away with a solid
understanding of what Infrastructure as Code is and
the main advantages, leaving you with nothing to
worry about but your code.
