Strata 2014 meeting focuses on demonstrating the excellence of cloud and data

This week, the Azurecat team was delighted to debut at the Strata conference. For those who are unfamiliar with the Azurecat team, we are a core international team of Microsoft Cloud and enterprise, consisting of about 70 Azure and data specialists. We are the people who were summoned to the scene by the executives when the client made a significant deployment. I am referring to the largest and most complex data, data storage, analysis and cloud application scenarios. So far, we've dealt with hundreds of of these events, and our team is still growing. Our team teaches these lessons to the engineering team, ensuring that customers are always the focus of the design and that the engineering team is aware of the challenges that customers face. We also have a habit of communicating these experiences to every member of our community and community. This year, we brought this knowledge to Strata.

This year, we set up Microsoft Booth Knowledge Theater at the Microsoft booth on Strata, where we'll launch a series of lectures that demonstrate Microsoft's excellence in cloud and data. Here's a list of the demos we'll provide on site. We are very pleased to be able to share our experience with you, particularly exciting that we can learn from you during the event.

We have shown a large number of quick learning topics in the "Knowledge Theater" set up by Microsoft Azurecat. We are delighted to have you visit the Microsoft Booth and watch the Microsoft Cyber crime demo. For more information, please @winazurecat on Twitter.
