With Microsoft Ignite, exciting innovations around Intune, Windows, Entra, and Security are just around the corner. A few days before this workshop, Ugur and Steffen were on site in San Francisco and are bringing you the latest insights straight from the Ignite stage. In this session, they will provide a concise outlook on the most important announcements, topics, and trends for the modern workplace – with a clear focus on what truly matters in practice.

In an increasingly dynamic working world, companies face the challenge of providing secure, flexible, and scalable work environments. In this session, we will take a practical look at the two Microsoft solutions—Windows 365 and Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD)—in direct comparison, with clear explanations and concrete use cases from everyday business scenarios.

RealmJoin is a valuable addition for creating an enterprise-ready client management platform. It enables the deployment of nearly 2,400 pre-packaged, up-to-date standard applications for Intune, along with extra features such as automated software updates, LAPS, and runbooks for automating standard tasks.

How can Microsoft 365 environments be managed efficiently, securely, and transparently—even as complexity and scale increase? The answer: Infrastructure as Code (IaC). In this session, we’ll show how organizations can use TerraProvider to define, version, and automatically deploy their entire Microsoft 365 infrastructure—including Entra ID, Intune, and SharePoint—as code. Leveraging Terraform, this approach enables consistent, auditable, and repeatable management of cloud resources.

If you want to boost productivity and user experience, you need client management that evolves seamlessly. In this session, we’ll show how companies can efficiently manage their Windows clients, maintain security standards, and improve user experience at the same time by adopting an evergreen approach.
