I’m attending the Arctic Cloud Developer Challenge (ACDC) as a judge! This is the first time I am participating in this hackathon which has been running for 10 years.

About Arctic Cloud Developer Challenge

ACDC is a 3 day Norwegian hackathon focusing on Microsoft technology, such as Microsoft 365, SharePoint, Dynamics 365, IOT. Azure, ML, Power BI.
Our goal is to push technology to new limits while we learn from each other and socialize. This great event has been hosted for over 10 years at the beautiful Voksenåsen. This year we are forced to think new, so we are going online, and going LIVE!

I am very happy that I can contribute to this great event as a judge. Despite the pandemic challenges, I am very sure the event will be a success

Day Two Cloud Podcast

Day Two Cloud is a podcast by Ned Bellavance. This podcast series is about what happens in the real world. Behind all the hype and buzzwords, what do hyper-scale and public cloud require?

In Day Two Cloud, Ned talks to people in the industry which have a story to share. Like what happened after successful cloud migration. Did everything work as you planned, or have you redesigned your whole project?

Digital Transformation Is More Than Just Cloud Migration

I was lucky to be invited as a guest in episode seven, where we talk about Digital transformation strategy in startups, government-owned, and larger organizations. What are their similarities and differences? What do they need help with, managing a public cloud?
The episode starts off by being fairly technical, but suddenly the conversation goes in a completely different and interesting direction. When we touch upon the human aspects of digital transformation.

Day Two Cloud is available on Packet Pushers and iTunes

2018 summary

2018 – what a year. Besides being the busiest year in my career for a long time, I have had alot of fun doing it!

During 2018 I have used most of my time trying to tame the (in lack of better words) ‘beast’ that Microsoft cloud is. I have spent noumerous hours deep diving in to Azure and Microsoft partner portals REST APIs. As well as developing new services for my employer.

Community

Besides maintaining this blog as my personal libary of technical documentation. Another goal is to provide good content back to the community I’m a part of.

In 2016 I decided to try more ways of contributing to the communtity. One of the things was to contribute to open source, and another was to present at various events.
2018 turned out to be the year for presentations.

Nordic Infrastructure conference
Azure User Group Norway
SquaredUp for hosting expert panel at Microsoft Ignite
Approved Consulting for hosting SCOM Day
SquaredUp for monitoring panel at Experts Live Europe
Microsoft Tech Summit Oslo

I would like to thank each and every one that came to my presentations, and to the organisers for your trust and opportunity.

Blog statistics

For those interested. The last year I have written 17 posts – thats not enough, hopefully I can produce some more written content next year.

In total 14.500 users have visited adatum.no. This results of 23.000 page views. Thats an increase of 55% in unique users since last year. Great!
The most popular post is actually about SCOM REST API Interfaces with a total of 1200 views. Second best performing post is Creating Azure AD Application registration using Powershell with just over 1100 views.

Twitter is by far the social with the most referrers, but most traffic is generated by organic search.

2019

The prospect of 2019 looks busy! I’m confident that community will be a priorty, but I might need to cut back on presentations.
2019 is the year where Microsoft brings Azure to Norway with two regions. I am really looking forward to working with customers making the correct choises on their journey to public cloud. This is going to be a lot of work and great fun, but we should still be pragmatic to the choices we make.

Thanks for following. Merry christmas!
