    Any Azure Cognitive Search peeps? I need some help @Azure @MS_Ignite

    @jamesdrandall @jenstirrup @Azure But yes, the underlying issue is MS support. And don't get me started on MS Partner support - they are even worse, outsourced to some random folks. It took them nearly three weeks to figure out why our sponsorship funds had prematurely terminated.

    I tried to create a short video describing @Azure virtual hub and failed miserably. I get how route tables work etc. but can't figure out how routing FROM virtual firewall works or how inter-hub routing works when you have multiple route tables. Help is highly appreciated. 🙏

    @ioshints @Azure The labels concept propagate the routes accross hubs (regions). tables can have multiple labels. Let me try and get you a contact at MSFT to help with details.

    @jamesdrandall @isaac_abraham @Azure Yes, I find that the support from Google GCP is actually the best, to be honest, although AWS offer great support. GCP communicate like I'm a real person. I've had problems with Azure support and I do try and get a male to speak to Azure so the request gets taken seriously.

    @azureadvocates @Azure I have a love/hate relationship with Azure Policy, but I guess that’s not really a service

  • TechMike2kX
    Mike Martin 🦇 (@TechMike2kX) reported

    @pdtit @GeertBaeke Sonarqube doesn't scan container images. You can use for example @Azure security center based on qualys (but not Oss) unfortunately most OSS are not sufficient for every kind of image base. Docker Bench and Harbor aren't bad. I prefer Snyk and paying options.

  • jenstirrup
    Jen Stirrup #Leadership #WomenInTech #Diversity (@jenstirrup) reported

    @isaac_abraham @jamesdrandall @Azure I worry it just adds another layer of complexity. It might work for first and second line support where the user doesn't know how to do something rather than 'it's broken' but if it's broken, you want to speak directly when it's impacting BAU.

    @azureadvocates @Azure It was codespaces... But that got deprecated for #github codespaces which doesn't even have parity and sometimes has issues

  • isaac_abraham
    Isaac Abraham (@isaac_abraham) reported

    @jenstirrup @jamesdrandall @Azure I think everyone has had problems with Azure support. Partly why they're trying to move everyone onto CSP - outsource the support to third parties.

  • jamesdrandall
    James Randall (@jamesdrandall) reported

    @jenstirrup @isaac_abraham @Azure If you're lower down the ladder you're stuck with the call center support which I concur is absolutely dreadful. Something I've raised a few times (with MS) is that the small spenders of today are the big spenders of tomorrow and pushing them away is really not a good idea.

  • 74type181
    Travis Johnson @127.0.0.1 (@74type181) reported

    @azureadvocates @Azure Not a service but spot instances for VMs. My home lab is on a tight budget and before those it was more cost effective to run my own hypervisor cluster at home. I still do for some things but now I don't need to be paranoid I forgot to shut something down and spending all my $$$

    @jenstirrup @isaac_abraham @Azure Using Postgres (and Docker for compute) enabled me to pick up and move projects fairly straightforwardly between AWS, Azure and Digital Ocean. Whereas Azure SQL involved a price hike on AWS and no support on DO.

    @ioshints @Azure No problem! I was able to decipher the "how" from the very technical details in the article above. Could definitely be summarized a lot better though.

    @Walgreens @DuaneReade why is your login page not working? And I keep getting messages you're updating the site? It's impossible to schedule a covid vaccine. You're hosted in @Azure. What's the issue?

  • Vigneshgr8
    Vignesh N (@Vigneshgr8) reported

    With @awscloud it' as easy as modifying an EBS volume. With azure, you cannot increase your volume without shutting down the VM. For the love of god, why do people use @Azure ??? Is it like some sadist thing where you like things that are difficult and doesn't work?

  • cloudtrans4mer

    @Azure is there a service outage with Eventhub, Iam creating a new eventhub namespace with a eventhub and trying to configure diagnostic setting - it says No Eventhub's found. on the portal I can see it, on the resources portal - it doesn't show.

  • jenstirrup
    Jen Stirrup #Leadership #WomenInTech #Diversity (@jenstirrup) reported

    @jamesdrandall @isaac_abraham @Azure Azure Support probably feel that they are successful, so they don't need to change. There is no marketing juice in #diversity for them, so they change. I get the sense AWS and GCP do something because they treat me well. Layers of complexity add in layers of potential failure.

  • jamesdrandall
    James Randall (@jamesdrandall) reported

    @jenstirrup @isaac_abraham @Azure I've had experience with CSP support. For anything beyond things we could solve ourselves it rooted through to the stock MS support and was just another layer of, as you say, complexity and confusion - we had to step in to restate the issue. Sticking plaster on a gaping wound.

  • isaac_abraham
    Isaac Abraham (@isaac_abraham) reported

    @jenstirrup @jamesdrandall @Azure Yes, it's another layer. But as we both know, first line MS Azure support is pretty woeful. I had a customer recently actually tell them to stop calling to resolve an issue. They would phone randomly throughout the day, never booked in any times. And couldn't solve the issue.

  • jenstirrup
    Jen Stirrup #Leadership #WomenInTech #Diversity (@jenstirrup) reported

    @isaac_abraham @jamesdrandall @Azure Azure Support reps do not receive any #DEI Diversity and Inclusion training for customer service. For all the song and dance about #Diversity that Microsoft makes, it does not extend to their support teams. So that adds an additional layer when they are just plain rude

  • jamesdrandall
    James Randall (@jamesdrandall) reported

    @jenstirrup @isaac_abraham @Azure I agree completely. There is too much focus on the "5 minute demo", too many real world issues (I posted about the current state of deployment the other day), and the support is poor. I'm no longer comfortable using it without an escape hatch. Hence Postgres at the data layer.

    @ioshints @Azure I feel your pain. I have an issue where I have slow traffic in one direction only via an IPSec over Express Route connection. I think I’ve upset the cloud gods and they are punishing me 😢
