Talking to MVPs & Customers at MMS 2012– Rory McCaw & Efim Idelman from InFront Consulting

This year I get the opportunity to connect with the sizeable contingent of customers, Partners and Microsoft Valued Professionals (MVPs) attending the Microsoft Management Summit 2012 (MMS 2012) in Las Vegas April 16-20. Each of the individuals I spoke to were very excited about what they will see and hear about Microsoft’s Private Cloud Platform, System Center 2012, as well as upcoming technologies like Windows Server “8” Beta.

InFront Consulting Group is a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner based in Toronto with operations world-wide.  Their primary product focus is the System Center Suite and they have a large contingent of individuals well versed in the product, starting with Rory McCaw , the man behind InFront and a long-standing MVP in Operations Manager and currently an MVP in System Center Cloud & Data Center Management.   I had the opportunity to chat with Rory and one of the newest members of the InFront team – Efim Idelman, a former Microsoft Canada colleague who recently joined their team. 

Let’s start with Rory and his thoughts on what to expect at MMS 2012 as well as some information on product announcements from InFront at MMS2012, and details on the session he is presenting at MMS and that we may see on a future TechDays TV episode.
