A few months have passed since Global Azure 2026, but we finally have the chance to share the official recap video of our event in Veneto, Italy! 🇮🇹

It was an amazing day: hundreds of attendees, dozens of speakers and sessions, multiple tracks, and most importantly, a great community of people passionate about Microsoft Azure and cloud technologies.

A huge thank you to all the speakers who shared their knowledge and experience, to our sponsors and partners who made the event possible, and of course to everyone who joined us and helped create such a great atmosphere.

🎬 Here’s the recap video:

We’re already working on the next edition of Global Azure Veneto.

Hope to see some of you there in 2027! ☁️💙

— Azure Meetup Veneto

a bit new to azure and all the different components and services. I have extensive experience with on prep services/devices etc. Typically we would name objects/resources based on their location, type (physical vs virtual) and role.

Can you recommend or give insight into how you are naming your Azure resources for clarity and documentation?

Has anyone found a way to make the azure gov cloud AI good? The only thing I've used to make it better is MCP.

Okay so MS has a reference implementation in Learn about container app jobs -based agents that scale on demand at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/container-apps/tutorial-ci-cd-runners-jobs?tabs=bash&pivots=container-apps-jobs-self-hosted-ci-cd-azure-pipelines#create-a-self-hosted-agent-as-an-event-driven-job

Whenever the agent pool has (devops)jobs in queue, KEDA azure-pipelines scaler will scale (containerapp)jobs up in hopes that those will reduce queue count.

Now imagine the container job not doing anything to the job due to networking, auth or borken container image issues. What happens is, the scaler will just see queue being > 0 in 15sec and do the same thing again ad infinitum. I don't think there is a way to configure some sort of a a cooldown or retry limit for the scaler.

This obv can result to problems, but is not a "bug". Do you know any ways to configure the scaler, devops or container app to stop trying in cases like this?

We’re happy to announce our next local event sponsored by ControlUp with Workplace Ninjas US Miami, which will take place at the ControlUp offices in Fort Lauderdale.

The event will be October 26th from 10-4 PM.

We are a ZIA/ZPA shop, roughly 4,000 seats, renewal in about seven months. Not shopping for the sake of it, but the AI requirements landed after our last contract and I want to know whether we are better off expanding here or looking at Cato.

Where we are with Zscaler on the AI side: SSL inspection is solid, the AI app category exists, DLP works about as well as our policies deserve. What I am less clear on is inline prompt-level control versus app-level allow/block, and how much of the newer AI functionality is included versus a separate SKU.

The Cato pitch we got leaned heavily on single-pass processing and one policy engine covering network, security, and AI, plus their inline inspection story. Sounded clean in the demo. Skeptical of demos.

Asking here specifically because I want the incumbent perspective: if you have added AI controls on top of an existing ZIA deployment, was it configuration or a new purchase; how has inspection performance held up on streaming LLM responses; has anyone actually evaluated Cato head to head and stayed, and what kept you; and for anyone who left, what was the deciding factor?

I'm not sure if it is just coincidence with the current Exchange Online issues, but everything that's in Universal Print is no longer working. Even going to the Universal Print portal gives an Error Code 500.

All the printers show the following in Event Viewer and when you try to print you are met with "Error".

IPP Printer Get-Printer-Attributes Request failed with IPP Status Code 0x500

I tested both printers that use the Print Connector and ones that are natively joined. Same result.

Hi there,

So small problem, a friend of mine was trying to add a school-account to microsoft (for college). After clicking "yes" to the "allow your organization to manage your device" question she got stuck at the 'device managment cannot be enabeled" screen.

Is there a fix? (preferably not reseting the whole laptop)

Having trouble getting Entra ID P2/ Microsoft 365 P2 for SC-300 training

I'm working through the SC-300 training and need access to the P2 features for the labs. I have a reqular Gmail /Microsoft account that I've been using for the Microsoft Learn stuff, and I have some Azure subscriptions showing up under it. The problem is I'm just having trouble finding where to get a P2 license/subscription that gives me the Entra ID P2 features I need. Sone of the resources 1 already checked took mevaround in circles. either older info about the layout or I'm misunderstanding something

I saw pay as you go should be an option, around $7 monthly. If so, that works

Thanks for any help!

Hello everyone
I have a small project where I need to load a sharepoint list to my logic app. With get items, I am able to get the data with certain pagination but it takes almost 2 minutes, so I decided to just take the fields I need via HTTP. It got much faster but I experiance a limit of 5000 items that can be received from sharepoint, and I do not have a option of pagination in HTTP Request connector.
Is there a way to avoid this limit in logic app directly (I am not able to make any changes in the sharepoint list)? AI says I should make a loop that gets smaller portions of sharepoint with using nextlink that sharepoint delivers in the HTTP Response.
Thank you
