I admit it: I love community conferences and two of the best of them will run in March 2016 in Malaysia and Australia. Both conferences focus on the latest Microsoft products and solutions and will cover technical and strategic topics around System Center, Azure, OMS, EMS and more. And what I like best: I am able to present at both of them!

Here we go with some facts about the upcoming conferences.

Facts about SCU APAC

• Date: March 7 2016 pre-conference day, March 8-9 2016
• Location: Hotel Sheraton Imperial, Kuala Lumpur-Malaysia
• Sessions: 20 sessions in 2 parallel tracks plus 4 pre-conference workshops/master classes
• Speakers: Mix of local and international speakers, 12 MVPs
• Website: http://systemcenteruniverse.asia/malaysia

Facts about SCU Australia

• Date: March 11 2016
• Location: Hotel Crown Promenade, Melbourne-Australia
• Sessions: 18 sessions in 3 parallel tracks, plus 3 workshops/master classes
• Speakers: Mix of local and international speakers, 12 MVPs
• Website: http://systemcenteruniverse.asia/australia

I will present a session at both the conferences. Both? Yes, and this definitely means a lot of travelling for me! But I will be joined by Thomas Maurer and I will meet many of my MVPs and speaker friends, so I will not get bored. In my session I will demonstrate (again) how you can manage your tesla vehicle (or even your whole tesla fleet) with your favorite tools like PowerShell, Azure Automation, SCOM, OMS, PowerBI, Windows Phone and more.

Come to my session: “How to manage your Tesla vehicle with all the cool technologies – PowerShell, System Center, Azure, OMS, PowerBI and more”

It’s a great session to summarize what’s possible with today’s Microsoft tools and solutions in a very simple and understandable way. So if you like technology and cars, this is a must-see session! It’s only live demos and lots of fun. So make sure you mark that session in your session list!

That said, I am looking forward to see you at one of the events. If you would like to have a chat get in contact with me or just come to our booth. My company itnetX is a SCU sponsor and we will be at our booth in the expo hall.

itnetX will give away 2 FREE tickets for SCU APAC and 2 tickets for SCU Australia! Send a tweet from a personal account mentioning @itnetx_CH plus the conference you want to go to. If you are one of the first 2 you will get your free access to the conference!

Oh, one more thing: After SCU Australia I will have some days off in Melbourne. And what do you do when having some time available? Of course, you attend a meeting of a local user group! That said, I will present a session at a PowerShell meetup that will happen on March 14 in Melbourne that is organized by David O’Brien. More information about the meetup can be found here. My session will cover some best practices that my team and I made during a big automation project for the swiss government. I will talk about an automated self service-solution we built that is based on SCSM and SMA. Definitely worth coming!

Cheers
