Yammer mit Exchange Verteilerlisten vergleichen

Yammer mit Exchange Verteilerlisten vergleichen

Vor kurzem habe ich an einer Umfrage teilgenommen, an der eine Gruppe entschieden hat, ob die derzeit bestehende Verteilerliste gegen eine Yammer Gruppe getauscht wird. In den Umfrageergebnissen gab es viel für und wider. Viele der Teilnehmer haben in den Kommentaren genau ausgeführt, warum sie die Exchange Verteilerliste behalten wollen oder warum sie Yammer einsetzen wollen. Dabei gab es viele interessante Argumente und Ansichten, von denen ich die wichtigsten in diesem Blogartikel erwähne und wie man diese in Yammer umsetzen kann. ...

Comparing Yammer to Exchange Distribution lists

Comparing Yammer to Exchange Distribution lists

Recently I was part in a poll about retiring an Exchange Distribution list (DL) and move content to a Yammer group. Not surprisingly there are a lot of pro’s and con’s for and against it. From the comments why to stay in an Exchange DL or move forward to Yammer there were some interesting arguments and viewpoints. Today I will go through some of them and explain how you can handle that in either technology. ...

How to use external users in SharePoint Online with a cost-free Azure Active Directory

How to use external users in SharePoint Online with a cost-free Azure Active Directory

We are using SharePoint Online (SPO) in many scenarios: for our own Intranet and we often create SPO Sites in our Office 365 tenant to collaborate with partners and for projects. Many projects last only for some months and after the work is finished the SPO site will be deleted. Since we don´t want to create not-our-company-users in our own Active Directory (AD) or in our synced Azure Active Directory (AAD) and assign an Office 365 license from our tenant it´s convenient to use users from another AAD and share the SPO site with them. ...

Delegate365 changelog version 2.9Setup Wizard

Delegate365 changelog version 2.9Setup Wizard

In Delegate365 version 2.9 the setup wizard for the primary configuration was slightly changed. The setup process must be run to configure D365 with any (existing) Office 365 tenant. The only things you need are the configuration password (provided by atwork) and the login and password of a global administrator of your Office 365 tenant, see also here. Do I need to run the setup? If you already received a Trial of Delegate365 with a new, preconfigured Office 365 tenant these steps are not necessary. This setup process is for organizations who want to use their own Office 365 (demo) tenant or for renewal of the D365 Service Account. If you got an email by atwork with the setup URL and a configuration password (code) you are able to complete the described steps here. ...

Besides, Shared Mailboxes do not need an Office 365 license since it´s a common mailbox for multiple (licensed) users. ...

Delegate365 changelog version 2.9New Sync

Delegate365 changelog version 2.9New Sync

As described here we are pleased to announce the new synchronization function in D365 version 2.9. We completely rebuilt the sync process and added rules for automatic user assignment to specific OU´s. Why Sync? Since D365 needs to deal with (ten)thousands of users in an AAD D365 uses an cache layer to deliver a good user experience and performance. So changes which are made outside of D365 - like in the Office 365 portal, via PowerShell or another App – may not be visible immediately in D365. ...

CDP-B312 - Microsoft Azure Active Directory Premium, in Depth

Für den morgen mal was Kräftiges. Nach den Country Drinks gestern am Strand und der Enttäuschung, dass bereits um 23:00 für Österreich Schluss war, erwarte ich mir doch etwas mehr von dieser Session. ;) Ziel von Azure Active Directory war es immer eine Identity Source für alle Online Services zu sein die Microsoft herausbringt. Es gibt AAD in drei Versionen ==>Free | Basic | Premium Wir sprechen heute über Premium. Die Free / Basic Versionen gibts auch, kann sich sicher jeder raussuchen was der Unterschied genau ist. ...

CDP-B337 - Lessons from Scale with Mark Russinovich

Der Meister selbst persönlich. Ich freu mich. Es geht um Erfahrungen mit Azure und Applikationen die in Azure gelaufen sind. Es werden aber keine Namen genannt sondern nur Architekturen. (bis auf eine Ausnahme) Case - Election Results Ein grosser US Staat wollte die Elections auf den Automaten einfach online auswerten und dort entsprechend abfackeln, at Scale. Im September eine kleine Election hat funktioniert, aber es war eng was Performance Themen betraf. Im November wollte man wesentlich grössere Elections machen. Review der Architektur stand an. ...
