Edge Computing vs. Cloud Computing: Let’s Discuss
The conversation around edge computing and cloud computing is growing as businesses explore decentralized data solutions. Cloud computing is known for its scalability, remote access, and cost efficiency, making it a reliable choice for managing extensive datasets. Meanwhile, edge computing processes data closer to its source, enabling faster responses and reducing bandwidth usage—perfect for IoT devices and real-time applications. Both technologies play a vital role in supporting decentralized data strategies. While cloud computing offers centralization and scalability, edge computing ensures real-time efficiency at the data's origin. By leveraging managed cloud services, businesses can make the most of these technologies to enhance their IT infrastructure. What’s your take on the future of decentralized data? Read the full blog here: Edge Computing vs. Cloud Computing: The Future of Decentralized Data.
Outlook Calendar
I received a notification that I was now in Central time zone this week (I have always been in this time zone). I accepted the change and you know what happened? Every appointment I had got two hours added to it (instead of 9 it is now 11). When are you going to start testing the software before releasing it? I said it before and I will say it again one of my jobs was to make sure the software worked with no glitches before release. I hate to insult people but if you can't write code correctly you need to find another job.Few problems after start Intune tested
Hello every one who read this. My company after years with MDM On-Prem instances want migrate to the cloud. We have few licenses with intune so i check the system. But for me it seems like early beta system. 1. Problem with BIOS password. Deployment is a really problem I create install .NET + Dell For Intune but in documentation are no words about what should see cctk file if i only want set up BIOS password 2. Android options are joke. Even less popular MDM have possibility to force gps ON but not intune my question why? it seems like a half product for Android OS 3. I enroll Android devices as corporate owned and have many funny options a) I cannot change Intune app seting for location (are grayed out and location for this app is turned off) b) after deployment Company Portal app installed sucessfully but wehen i click on it then app disapear and once again i cannot install manually because admin already install it :D There are many small and big things to fixed Another funny example are Device Encryption as standard user we have 2 option 1. Quiet encryption without password 2. Admin must start it. Why user cannot start encryption itself wehen i prepare custom profile in the way we want (user must only add a password)Microsoft Tech Community Ideas - What Happened?
We have decided to archive all ideas from the classic platform, except those that have a clear parallel in Aurora. This decision was made not to disregard the excellent ideas submitted (over 800 since launch), but because the Aurora UI introduces new UI/UX experiences, making it quite challenging to review every idea and determine its current relevance. Some ideas, such as the request for an app for the Office Network (now called Microsoft Tech Community), still resonate today. Therefore, we have reinstated these ideas on the new Ideas board, along with their original comments and votes. Unfortunately, due to a bug, these ideas have lost their 'status,' but we will address this issue shortly. If your idea is still relevant today and has not been transferred, please accept my apologies and comment below. We still have all the ideas and are happy to resurrect any that we may have missed. Starting with a new Ideas board allows us to update all statuses and tags to better reflect the current community and the way we structure and prioritise user feedback with the Aurora UI. Additionally, we will soon launch a new 'Updates & Roadmap' segment, which will cover all updates, bug fixes, and, where appropriate, reference community-reported bugs that have been resolved. We aim to be as transparent as possible and give kudos to the many members who offer their feedback and ideas to help improve the community. Thank you, AllenPoor page layout
When I click on Publish, nothing happens. I have learned that this is because tags are required but the UI element to apply tags is not visible on my laptop screen until I scroll down which makes it impossible to see the message that tagging is required. The style sheet for this page needs to be adjusted so that is works better for people that are only using a laptop without an extra monitorDifficult to read on mobile device with YouTube feeds
Not sure if this is the right place to raise Id like to report an issue with content with the YouTube videos used, the layout on mobile devices uses 50% of the screen making it very hard to read, text is way too small and doesn't use full real estate of the screen. I am using latest iOS 18.1 and the safari browser. See screenshot below (which ironically is easier to read) - I've also uploaded a full page screenshot to see the effect of the YouTube component on the page.anyone else having issues with techcommunity "bell"?
Hi all, the flyout for the notifications does not seem to render well anymore logging off / on / shift+F5 does not help.

Even after stepping into GenAi, it was another year where I saw a lot of buzz. Communities in Microsoft Tech Community and impressed by the community's experts who solve problems and respond with knowledge of activities. Based on what I responded to in the user research survey🤔, but above all, the drive of the community moderator team. We hope that in the future, innovation will develop far and wide. We still hope that the tech community will continue to work together to solve problems, answer problems, and interact with each other with humans :pushpin:. Despite the emergence of human cyber defenders, which are now enhanced with AI assistants such as Co-Pilot, for example, today even though we talk to AI for more than half an hour and have the impression that it is a human being, today AI is still a light type that humans have to set up and test. 🙄 But in the near future, what used to be just a theory may come true, there may be a strong AI emerged with neural structures and intelligence similar to humans. 🤔 But there is still a lack of feeling, in the community. 💥 Because the day ahead A guardian may be able to be a destroyer in the same body.🙏🙏🙏Unexpected Error when navigating the Microsoft Tech Community

Issue with "Could you help answer this?" Area
Hi, At the end of My Dashboard page, there is a section called Could you help answer this? which I believe is helpful and give us chance to help another community user. However, I notice most of the time it shows reply from forums which I don't participate and also not in my follow list. I believe this section should show questions from forum I follow, and it would be better to show forums which I am active. For example, based on number of my reply and likes in other forums.
