A blog series about my experiences with MicroK8S, WSL, and Azure Arc

I recently started a new job with a company that isn’t a 100% Microsoft shop. It has been many years since I have worked in a environment that everyone wasn’t drinking the Microsoft Kool-Aid. Not a bad thing if you do, I did and I loved that flavor. However, new job means new challenges and new way of doing things. In this blog series I am going to discuss my experiences with MicroK8S.

How to Integrate Microsoft Sentinel and Freshservice

How to Integrate Microsoft Sentinel and Freshservice

Sometimes your customers can teach you a thing or two.

There are times even your customers can teach you something. Recently while onboarding Microsoft Sentinel for a customer I ran into one of those times. I had been asked by the customer to integrate Microsoft Sentinel with Freshservice. Fresh service is one of many cloud based ITSM that I have run along my fun career. I personally don’t know much about Freshservice out side of the fact that my customer used it and had a use case where they wanted Sentinel to open a ticket in their system.

Digging deeper into my curiosity on how to deploy Sentinel using ADO or GitHub

Well, not really dragged, if you know me I am a large guy and it would be more like fork lifting me kicking and screaming? Anyway, I actually love working with security products like Microsoft Sentinel, Defender for Cloud and the many other Defender for.. Products Microsoft offers, along with Identify solutions like Entra Permissions Management and more.
Dipping My Big Toe Into Cross-Tenant Synchronization Part I

Dipping My Big Toe Into Cross-Tenant Synchronization Part I

Part I - I have a very big Big Toe!!!

So, I am very interested in What cross-tenant synchronization is and what it could do for me and maybe for customers? Since I have a number of tenants I thought it would be good to at least try this preview feature and blog about my experience. Also, this blog originally started out as a single blog but as I started to write it it grew and grew and grew. I wanted to refocus myself and break it up into smaller parts.
Applying The Final Firmware Update for the Azure Percept DK

Applying The Final Firmware Update for the Azure Percept DK

Trying to save my Azure Percept DK from becoming yet another Microsoft hardware in my rock draw.

I guess this will be part II of another blog I wrote called What! My Azure Percept DK Devices Are Being Retired???. In that blog I mentioned how the Percept devices that were not cheap are now going into “retirement.” The only way to keep using them for other things is to install the last “Unsupported” firmware update before March 30th. This is my blog about how to install this update since you can no longer do OTA updates on existing devices at this time.
Getting my Vision AI DevKit Back Up And Running

Getting my Vision AI DevKit Back Up And Running

Since I failed terribly at getting my old Azure Sphere Development kit up and running as documented in previous blogs I decided to move on to my Vision AI DevKit.

The process The first thing I did was install the Android Debug Bridge (ADB).
