Scott has been coming back to LIDNUGs members each quarter for the past couple of years and it's been one of the best sessions to get answers directly from The Gu himself. In this session Scott answers questions on technical solutions, advices on implementations and draws comparisons between methodologies - all in the span of 90 minutes where his sole focus is to answer whatever question that comes in from the attendees.

Hybrid on Azure – A Pragmatic Approach to Cloud, 29th January 12pm till 5pm - Manchester

Cloud solutions are often presented as an all-or-nothing deal, in reality a move to the cloud is very rarely that straightforward and a much more pragmatic approach has to be taken. That is where Hybrid deployments really come into their own, the Windows Azure platform has been built with this in mind and gives infrastructure and software architects an all-encompassing toolkit. Join us in Manchester on January 29th to hear about how you can deploy hybrid cloud solutions across a wide range of common business applications and architectures and discover the benefits not only in terms of performance but also in terms of cost.
