  7. How far can Serverless actually go?
    Speaker: Alex Mang, CEO, KeyTicket Solutions
    Azure Functions is getting a lot of traction, which is completely understandable in the fast-paced world of applications developed under agile methodologies. Comparing the world of IT and software development today with the one 10 years ago, when we knew not only what operating system our application was going to run on but also the exact part number of the server that was running the workload, we can only conclude that PaaS infrastructures have gone a far way! 
  8. Azure – Plug & Play Architecture
    Speaker: Steef-Jan Wiggers, Senior Consultant, CoditNL
    Microsoft Azure Platform offers a wide range of services, predominantly PaaS services. And building a solution architecture you will use various of these pluggable services.

  4. Intelligent and scalable API’s with Azure Functions
    Speaker: Christos Matskas, Azure Engineer, Microsoft
