Presentation 1: Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) Security
Speaker: Maxime Coquerel - Microsoft MVP
During my presentation, I will delve into the diverse security vectors that a malicious actor could leverage to target an Azure Kubernetes Cluster (AKS). I will emphasize several pivotal topics crucial for comprehending and averting security breaches, encompassing:

• Addressing common misconfigurations in AKS clusters
• Leveraging Azure Resource Graph for discovery purposes
• Assessing the risks linked to malicious admission controllers
• Evaluating potential attacks at both the cluster and node levels.

Presentation 2: Build your end to end streaming ingestion using cloud native approach on azure
Speaker: Ehsan Eskandari- Microsoft MVP
In this presentation, we will unravel the process of building a comprehensive, end-to-end real-time data streaming ingestion system using a cloud-native approach on Microsoft Azure. This talk is founded on a practical project experience, involving the ingestion of real-time financial transactions along with IoT data transactions on Azure.
We will delve into how to store this data on the backend, thereby making it accessible for downstream systems. Our exploration will cover various data sharing patterns, including file sharing and the pub/sub model, ensuring that the data is made available in the most suitable and efficient manner.
Throughout the session, we will be harnessing the power of several Azure services. We will be utilizing Azure Front Door for secure, scalable content delivery. Azure API Management will be used to publish APIs to external, partner, and internal developers. Azure Functions will be employed to execute code triggered by events. We will leverage Azure Data Explorer for fast and highly interactive analytics, and Azure Event Hub and Event Grid for real-time data ingestion and event routing respectively.
Towards the end, we will conduct a load test using Azure Load Testing to evaluate the performance of our solution under simulated load. The results will be monitored and analyzed using Application Insights for Azure Functions, providing a comprehensive view of the solution's performance.
Join us in this insightful journey of building an end-to-end real-time data streaming ingestion system on Azure, gaining practical insights and the potential to transform your real-time data ingestion capabilities.
