DR scenario for SAP Windows application servers with the focus on ASCS/ERS using Azure Files SMB
by Guest SteffenMueller- 0 replies
- 0 views
Management Summary A disaster exists if a primary side (Region) becomes entirely unavailable due to major outages. Within the region the system is protected by WSFC and redundancy measures from single points of failure. In this example the focus is on the ASCS/ERS functionality. In another Azure region, a second SAP system is built, acting as for example a QAS system. This allows the virtual machines making up this system to be temporarily repurposed for the PRD DR system. This is a very cost-effective measure since there’re no idle machines. Both systems are installed with virtual hostnames. Following SAP Note 1564275, CNAMES should not be used to implement v…

Microsoft aims to make mixed reality accessible and intuitive for frontline workers everywhere. With Dynamics 365 Guides, deskless workers use step-by-step holographic instructions to ensure process compliance, improve efficiency, and learn on the job. In 2022 Teams capabilities were integrated into Guides, allowing users to collaborate with anyone anywhere in the world seamlessly. This enabled calling through the HoloLens 2 – allowing the remote participant (or participants, if on a group call) to “see-what-I-see” through the HoloLens user’s eyes. They can see what is happening in real-time, annotate in their colleagues’ 3-dimensional space, and share relevant fil…

Update: Deprecation of Client Access Rules in Exchange Online
by Guest The_Exchange_Team- 0 replies
- 0 views
Last September, we announced the deprecation of Client Access Rules (CARs) in Exchange Online. CARs allow admins to control which devices can access their organization's mailboxes. It was introduced in 2017 as a way to provide granular access control based on client properties such as IP addresses, protocol, or application. In October 2022, we disabled CARs cmdlets for tenants that were not using CARs. This was done to reduce the complexity and confusion around CARs and to encourage the adoption of newer and more secure features like Azure Active Directory (AAD) Conditional Access and Continuous access evaluation (CAE). We have been working with customers to learn h…

Seeking Dead and Dying Servers with the MDEASM APIs

- 0 views
This post follows Seeking Dead and Dying Servers blog and introduces the Microsoft Defender for External Attack Surface Management (Defender EASM) APIs. You should start with the previous post if you haven't already done so or are brand new to Defender EASM. Defender EASM APIs provide much more capability than the UI (user interface) alone, enabling users to work with large numbers of assets in one action or piece of code. The pro of APIs is they provide an unencumbered interface between the application and the code or app interacting with it to enable exciting capabilities. However, leveraging an API usually involves significant coding work, even for experienced…

I’m excited to announce the integration of Entra Identity Governance Entitlement Management with a very cool technology we recently introduced, Microsoft Entra Verified ID! If you think about what you need to onboard new users including employees, contractors, partners, or other business guests, it often includes verifying identity information and credentials. This process can be tedious and time-consuming, requiring users to fill out redundant online forms or paperwork, ultimately delaying hiring timelines and ramp-up periods. To ease this friction, we previously introduced custom questions and attribute collection in Microsoft Entra Identity Governance …

Service Meshes have a great value when running distributed applications at scale on K8s. Many meshes are available nowadays. The usual suspects are Istio and Linkerd but other meshes have come to the surface, such as Open Service Mesh (OSM) from Microsoft. OSM is available as an AKS addon. The promises of a service mesh are: Increased agility thanks to the built-in support of various deployment/testing models Increased resilience thanks to built-in retry, circuit breakers and fault injections (chaos engineering) Increased observability Increased security, thanks to mTLS and traffic policies Enhanced load balancing algorithms that understand the application lay…
