SysAdmin Weekly - 032 - Microsoft Ignite 2025: What SysAdmins Actually NEED to know

Описание: Microsoft Ignite just wrapped and shockingly, it wasn’t only about AI.

(Okay, it was mostly about AI.)

In this episode of SysAdmin Weekly, Andy and Paul cut through the marketing noise and walk through what actually matters to SysAdmins from Microsoft Ignite’s Book of News. From AI agents showing up everywhere, to Azure resiliency, security posture management, and why massive cloud outages are still very much a thing. This is the practical, admin-focused breakdown you didn’t get from the keynote.

We dig into:

What Microsoft’s push toward AI agents really means for control, governance, and security
New Copilot and Azure features that might actually help… and a few that should make you cautious
Why resiliency keeps failing at scale (and what Ignite quietly admitted about it)
How Microsoft is trying to simplify security and management and where the complexity is just shifting instead
The ongoing reality of cloud dependencies, outages, and shared responsibility

No hype. No sales pitch. Just two SysAdmins reacting honestly to what Ignite announced and what it means when the slides become production.
If you manage Microsoft environments, cloud workloads, or security policies, this one’s for you!
