The SSW Getaway
I'm in the USA at the MVP summit and I was told it could not happen. Trump is the new president of the USA. After this campaign, I wish I were back at the SSW Getaway.
Once or twice a year the SSW guys and their families (these days this includes lots of kids!) escape Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane to attend the SSW Getaway and spend some time together outside the office.
During these getaways, we do a bunch of fun activities together – usually something competitive (like tennis or chess), have a hearty and delicious meal, and take an epic walk someplace beautiful. However, my favourite part of these trips is the presentations. Each SSW-er in attendance puts together a 5 to 10-minute talk about projects they’ve been working on, the technologies used, and lessons learnt. You’ll have to wait for my yearly wrap-up blog to find out what they said. 😉

He will show in a live demo how Power BI allows even non-technical users to produce and share invaluable reports and dashboards. Watch video

.NET to The Power of R1
R is a language for statistical programming that is widely used among data scientists. Last year Microsoft purchased Revolution Analytics, a leading R company. As a result, Microsoft recently released Visual Studio Tools for R and announced that R is going to be included in the upcoming SQL Server 2016.
In this session, we will take a look at R from an introductory point of view and see how the power of R can be used by .NET developers. Some of the highlights are:
- What is R and why does it matter?
- A brief look into statistics and visual data presentation
- R in a nutshell
- "There is no R in Develop, but there is one in DevelopeR" - R Basics
- Power of R: some basic examples showcasing R
- A brief look at R in SQL Server 2016
- Building a dashboard with ASP.NET MVC and R (getting data from SQL Server as well as the internet)
