Next week is Microsoft Ignite (disclosure: Microsoft is a client of the author) and a whole bunch of us are flying into Orlando on Sunday
to spend the week with Microsoft
In anticipation of this sold out event, I thought I&d list my expectations for this event which is largely focused on enterprise customers
(You can stream many of the sessions if you want to attend this thing remotely
As an aside, I wonder when we&ll be able to attend events like with Mixed Reality)Let get to it.Push to the cloud

With 5G networks starting to get lit up in a few short months (2019 event), the ability to truly pivot to the cloud is near, and I&m looking
forward to seeing just how far that pivot will be at Ignite.
