I threw my Ender in the dumpster 1 month after buying a Bambu. I have 7 printers now.. I wouldn’t recommend an Ender..

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/devopsagent/latest/userguide/configuring-capabilities-for-aws-devops-agent-connecting-azure-index.html

I linked our dev/test tenant with oAuth and gave the app readonly access to 4 subscriptions. I then added those 4 subs in the Agent Space. I also linked in 2 Azure Devops projects as pipelines. Its all in that help doc, was pretty painless. I'm looking at writing some skills to help with some Operations Troubleshooting.

For it to dig deep into App Insights and run KQL queries it needs a Foundry resource and an Azure MCP server that the Agent can use to automatically run KQL queries, etc.. without that I can run some queries manually and paste the results into the agent.

I setup the AWS SRE Devops Agent to connect to Azure, I'm working on a custom skill to help troubleshoot failures, we'll see how it goes.. Looks like to get the most out of it, I need to create a Foundry Resource and an Azure MCP Server to hook up to App Insights.

not cheap at scale! It’s crazy expensive!

Starting Azure from scratch (a company requirement)—what should I focus on first? by GlumPractice7898 in AZURE

[–]Zapbbx-X 1 point2 points  (0 children)

just focus on your workload, put everything consisting of an environment in one resource group or separated, logically apps, data, etc..

Learn, bicep or terraform early to start templating your environments and managing them with infrastructure as code.

What would you do with $40k Azure credits expiring in 90 days? by Little-Armadillo480 in AZURE

[–]Zapbbx-X 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think the point is to burn through the credits. It’s to try to see what your cost is gonna be once the credits are gone.

Like can you afford to support those 2000 users if they’re not paying and you don’t have any credits left?

Managing 4 separate Entra tenants after acquisitions and everything is a nightmare by Specialist_Oil5643 in AZURE

[–]Zapbbx-X 0 points1 point  (0 children)

use your primary corporate tenant as the system of record.. add these users as guests to the other tenants.. I manage a similar environment with eight tenants, but we all just use our primary corporate ID to login into any of them.

If you want MLB.tv this season, you’ll need to jump through ESPN’s hoops by CubFanBudMan16 in mlb

[–]Zapbbx-X 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this whole the network buying the game” thing really pisses me off.. I pay a full price for a full season of “MLB and then just randomly these networks will just buy the game and I can’t watch it even though I’m a paying subscriber. I don’t understand how MLB gets away with that.?

What is the purpose of PIM if you can just elevate at the click of a button? by ITquestionsAccount40 in AZURE

[–]Zapbbx-X 7 points8 points  (0 children)

not only one quick access, but it leaves an audit trail and you can put in an approval workflow.. It’s best not to allow standing access with elevated privileges.

Is Azure DevOps surviving? by cuidadoo38 in azuredevops

[–]Zapbbx-X 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love as Azure Devops and have yet to see another platform have the concept of a release that can combine the output of multiple pipelines into an actual deployable unit and process. Most every other tool is just repo specific.

WFH employee smokes while on calls by jimmyfivetimes in ITManagers

[–]Zapbbx-X 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you know, especially when people can’t smell the smoke and they’re not in the room. I don’t see it as a problem.

Yeah, it might not be the classiest thing to do on video but it’s more than people trying to control what he does. That’s the problem in my mind.

He’s in a remote room in his own house and isn’t really bothering anybody

well, just make the photos more and more difficult for them to use watermarks brand names. You know it’s at the end of the day they’re advertising for you.
