The Enterprise Dish hit the road and traveled to Ignite and on this episode, we discuss a few of the highlights from the event, talk about what’s next for Smartdeploy, and a lot more from the conference floor.

One of the best new features of Microsoft’s new Chromium-Based Edge browser is that it allows you to install Progressive Web Apps (PWA), or any website, as apps that behave like any other Windows program.

At Microsoft Ignite 2019, the Exchange product group announced the public preview of a set of REST-based PowerShell cmdlets to replace some of the most popular (and in performance terms, most painful) traditional cmdlets. The new cmdlets are more reliable and robust and run 2-4 times faster than the older Remote PowerShell-based cmdlets (your mileage will vary). All good stuff.

Microsoft announced a number of updates to the PowerApps service, including that the company is rebranding the platform.

Microsoft is rebuilding Yammer with an updated interface and new features but you can’t get your hands on it for a few more weeks.

On this edition of the Enterprise Dish, we dive into the success of Server Core, taking Ignite head-on, and MFA outages.

It’s the month before Ignite and even though the company will announce lots of updates next week, October had a couple of surprises too.

Microsoft started using machine learning (ML) to manage the rollout of Windows 10 feature updates with the Windows 10 April 2018 Update (version 1803).

On this edition of the Enterprise Dish, Dux has technology from the future, Ignite doesn’t need to be overwhelming, and a few sessions to checkout.

In a rather odd decision, Microsoft is launching self-service purchases for Office 365 tenant users who want to use the Power Platform without consulting an administrator. Another troubling sign is the way that the MailItemsAccessed audit event has been packaged into a new Microsoft 365 Audit feature. Tenants expected to see this audit event last January after Microsoft announced it was coming. Its subsequent disappearance was a mystery until now.
