My TechED Europe session on Springboard

-
I am holding a session at TechED Europe on the Springboard site and how you can find information and tools there.

Session is in Hall 10A on Tue, Jun 26 1:30 PM - 2:15 PM

There will be lots of demo's and great information about session to attend at TechED Europe this year. Thats the great thing with having a sessions on the first day, you can recommend other sessions.

I am now currently working with getting the demo's up and run. I think Arposh Windows System Administration tool will excite alot you admins :-)

I will try to demo:

  • Proof Of Concept Jumpstart Kit:
    The PoC Jumpstart provides resources to deploy a desktop PoC with Windows 7 SP1, Office 2010, Internet Explorer 9, and Application Virtualization with Microsoft Desktop Optimization Pack technology.
  • MAP:
    The Microsoft Assessment and Planning (MAP) Toolkit is an agentless inventory, assessment, and reporting tool that can securely assess IT environments for various platform migrations—including Windows 7, Office 2010 and 365, Windows Server 2008 R2, Hyper-V, Windows Azure, and Microsoft Private Cloud Fast Track.
  • ACT:
    The Microsoft® Application Compatibility Toolkit (ACT) 5.6 enables software developers, independent software vendors (ISVs), and IT professionals who work in a corporate environment to determine, before deployment within the organization, whether their applications are compatible with a new version of the Windows® operating system. ACT also enables such individuals to determine how an update to the new version will affect their applications.
  • MDT: How to migrate XP to you'r next OS
    Use the Microsoft Deployment Toolkit (MDT) to accelerate and automate deployments of Windows 7, Office 2010, Windows 8 Consumer Preview, Windows Server 2012 Beta, and Windows Server 2008 R2.
     
  • Arposh Windows System Administration tool:
    AWSA was built with the System Administrator in mind. Troubleshooting Windows issues requires a vast array of tools and knowledge. AWSA brings those tools together in one central location and adds additional functionality.
  • And If time permits:
    Office 2010 Administrative Template files and Office Customization Tool

Installing Android on a Hyper-V virtual machine

Working with mobile device management (MDM) require a lot of testing. With Windows 10 testing is no problem (except those things that demand to be done on a physical device by different reasons), they can easily be run virtual. But when it comes to phones and tablets it have not been that easy. Visual Studio and some other solutions where out there, but they did not come with Store access or they had dependence which excluded Hyper-V from running. Some Emulators runs in a Hyper-V VM with Windows 10, but not on the host itself. So, if you got it to work it was usually slow and painful.
