If you were going to implement something similar to Azure DevOps’ streaming of pipeline execution logs (i.e. user instigated short term processes) so people could see log entries in realtime or look back at them historically, what would your #azure technology stack be to accomplish it?
There’s no need to aggregate logs from separate executions together (à la DataDog, Mezmo, etc). Each short term process will be viewed separately.
Leider sind von den 1484 Diensten 668 von AWS. Davon die Hälfte Level 1. 21 Dienste sind immerhin Level 2. Natürlich ist kein Dienst Level 3. Bleibt genau die Hälfte, die nicht den Anforderungen der GAIA-X entsprechen. Es stellt sich etwas die Frage, warum diese Dienste dann in einem Katalog von GAIA-X enthalten sind.
...new #NVIDIA based #Azure supercomputer that has taken the number three rank on the global supercomputer list.
“We continue to see #Microsoft as one of the key enablers of enterprise digital transformation, across the front office, back office and operational assets. Azure is the leader in enterprise cloud infrastructure in terms of offering, with more data centres than any peer and as well as the best #AI infrastructure for both training and inference. Its...
“Recently, one of our pen testers found a bastion host during an #Azure assumed-breach #pentest. We were given the credentials of an employee within Azure Active Directory. The pen tester was able to log into SSH with Azure #ActiveDirectory credentials. So, he got onto the bastion host, which was a #Linux box. One of the users on that box made their home directory world readable for everyone. He rifled through that user’s directory and found credentials for Snowflake, a third-party database service. He used those credentials to connect to the 3rd-party provider and gained access to production #data.” - @sethsec on a recent episode of the Cloud Security Podcast.
I'm the PM for AzCopy (yes, that AzCopy that customers use to migrate gobs of data to and within #Microsoft#Azure Object #Storage). I only say this to sell you on the idea that I just might be able to influence quality responses to this question:
If you could have one thing that doesn't exist in AzCopy today, what would it be?
The same release added#GitHub registry support and retained separate #Azure support. This essay from last year about #VSCode as an onramp to Microsoft lock-in is looking more and more accurate: https://ghuntley.com/fracture/
Microsoft seems to be embracing ARM processors for more than just for Windows laptops and desktops... The Azure Cobalt 100 processor has 128 ARM cores.

Language, Thought and Reality
Selected Writings of Benjamin Lee Whorf
The pioneering linguist Benjamin Whorf (1897–1941) grasped the relationship between human language and human thinking: how language can shape our innermost thoughts. His basic thesis is that our perception of the world and our ways of thinking about it are deeply influenced by the structure of the languages we speak.
@appassionato@bookstodon@linguistics Well, that's a bit too much of hype, because there is very little evidence that Whorf's basic thesis is relevant in the real world. The only artefact I am aware of is a study on colour perception that is different for speakers of languages like Russian that have two words for #blue (denoting #azure and #indigo as basic colours).
