Recently, I’ve been helping SugarCRM to port their flagship PHP application to Windows Azure Platform. Here’s the slide deck we jointly prepared with SugarCRM Chief Architect Majed Itani for SugarCON ‘10 that summarizes the solution architecture and the learnings from this exercise. This is a rare example when our “partner engagement” work as Microsoft DPE architects is shared with the public – in most cases it’s the partner ISV that controls the solution architecture and doesn’t disclose any details until the corresponding product actually ships, if at all

A couple of weeks ago we had a Windows Identity Foundation workshop in Belgium delivered by Vittorio Bertocci . Frank Cornelis from FedICT was very quick to apply this knowledge and make it so you can now easily use the Belgian electronic ID cards with your ASP.NET applications.
