Microsoft presents DevOps book

d_dintsisLeave a comment

This book is not about Azure or other technical items.

DevOps is about culture, team job, motivation. The book is very detailed and explains DevOps job in details.

I recommend to download and share with your teammates and managers.

Especially recommended for startup teams!

 

Thank You for Listening!

On behalf of its members, and partners globally, the IAMCP respectfully thanks Microsoft for hearing our voices and concerns regarding the recently proposed changes to IUR (Internal Use Rights) benefits, a valuable aspect of gold and silver competencies and the Microsoft Action Pack (MAP).
Microsoft’s announcement of its decision not to eliminate the program has been greatly welcomed by partners worldwide, further underscoring their perception of the value proposition of IUR.
It also demonstrates Microsoft’s commitment to its partners, willingness to listen, and openness to change in support of the ecosystem.
“Microsoft has always welcomed feedback. This decision demonstrates that when the partner network provides input, Microsoft doesn’t just listen. It acts. Thank you, Microsoft!”

This video presents the IAMCP partners’ project of implementing Microsoft Teams as a lifelong social learning tool.

The partners – PE Dintsis and Specialist CCT (Gold Learning Partner) implemented the Teams for various types of virtual and blended learning.

The benefits include: collaboration improvement, decrease of license fees, and increase of students’ NPS.
