Details
We’re back at Haylofts in Newcastle for another .NET Meetup
We have a fairly relaxed agenda, but will follow:
5:30 - Doors Open
5:45 - Pizza arrival
6:00 - Introduction / Housekeeping
6:10 - Talks begin
8:00 - Closing
Speaker 1: Michael Stephenson
Title: Azure AI - Powered by Azure Integration
Description:
How can Azure Integration Services help us integrate better with Azure AI to open up use cases which let us really build AI driven applications.
To showcase the power of Azure Integration Services we will use it to integrate Minecraft with Azure Open AI and see if it can help us build things. Our own Minecraft Copilot
Speaker Bio:
Michael Stephenson has worked as an architect on Azure projects for over 10 years developing enterprise solutions with Azure. Many of these solutions involve complex integration scenarios and discussing the advantages and disadvantages for a given use case for technologies like Logic Apps, Functions, Data Factory, Service Bus and others.
Speaker 2: Marc Duiker
Title: Failure is not an option: durable execution + Dapr = 🚀
Description:
Applications break all the time, there could be a network issue, a cloud provider outage, or just a glitch in the matrix. But as a developer, you really need your applications to be resilient without the need to recover databases and restart services manually.
In this session, I'll demonstrate how Dapr Workflow provides durable execution, which enables you to write reliable workflows as code. In addition, I'll show how resiliency policies in Dapr improve reliable communication across services and resources when developing distributed applications.
I'll go into specific workflow features, such as scheduling, sequential and parallel execution, and waiting for external events. I'll show many code samples (in C#) for each of these features and will run the applications using the Dapr CLI to demonstrate their resiliency.
By the end of the session, you will have a good grasp of how durable execution with Dapr workflow and resiliency policies can help you build resilient applications.
