Integrated communication is everywhere! While at Build in Seattle, Richard talked with Bob Serr, the VP of Azure Communication Services (ACS) at Microsoft. Bob discusses how ACS provides tooling to integrate voice, text, and video into any application through Azure. This leads to a broader conversation about the power of deeper communication, especially for difficult discussions like tech support. Can adding video make it easier to diagnose a problem? And what is the role of the new large language model technologies coming from OpenAI in providing automated communications? There are a lot of possibilities available today!Links:Azure Communication ServicesAzure OpenAI ServiceRecorded May 25, 2023

How do you add custom audio, video, and text communications into your organization? Richard chats with Mary Anne Noskowski about Azure Communications Services (ACS), a set of APIs and tooling that brings the features of Teams communications into custom applications and more. Mary Anne talks about Teams integration, providing a means to customize the guest access features into Teams via ACS. The conversation also digs into a few different scenarios for optimizing customer, vendor, and employee experience in communications. It's early days for ACS, but they are taking the reins from the Skype for Business APIs - and it's the same APIs that Teams depend on, so you know they will scale!Links:Azure Communication ServicesAzure Active DirectoryACS on Microsoft MechanicsACS Health Care Demo AppACS Retail Demo AppRecorded August 5, 2021

Hallo liebe Zuhörer:innen, in der heutigen Folge sprechen wir über die Themen aus dem "Book of News" von der #MSBuild. Eigentlich ist es ja eine Entwickler-Konferenz, dennoch gibt es einige Themen, die unsere Aufmerksamkeit bekommen haben. Dazu sprechen wir über Azure Communication Services und weitere Teams Entwicklungsmöglichkeiten. Im Anschluss unterhalten wir uns über eine These, die aus den Medien kam: #MicrosoftTeams as a Platform. Meint ihr dies hat eine Zukunft oder seht ihr sogar noch weitere Entwicklungen, die wir nicht bedacht haben? - Schreibt es uns gern via Twitter an @TalkM365. In unserem Service an Euch, sprechen wir noch einmal über die baldige "Abschaltung" von Skype for Business Online und diskutieren die Möglichkeit diese "Zwangsmigration" auf einigen Tenants noch etwas aufzuschieben. Ein Gerücht bildet dann unser Abschlussthema: Das nächste Betriebssystem-Update wird nicht mehr Windows 10 heißen, sondern Windows 11. Merkt Euch den 24.06. als großes Windows-Event. Viel Spaß beim hören, Michael und Thorsten -------------------------------------------------- Link zum Blog findet ihr hier: https://talkm365.net Link zum YouTube Kanal gibts hier: https://youtube.talkm365.net Auf Twitter unter: @TalkM365 Twitter Michael: @plemich Twitter Thorsten: @thorpick -------------------------------------------------- Reference-Links: Music Intro/Outro: Vacation - AShamaluevMusic.

Twilio has had an exciting fall. First, Microsoft announced Azure Communication Services, viewed as a shot across the bow at Twilio in the developer driven communications space. Then, Twilio had its first investor day in three years, refreshing investors on their trajectory. Lastly, Twilio announced the purchase of Segment, a customer data platform that signals Twilio's climbing of the value chain. To break it all down, we bring on Captain Twilio, an experienced investor whose portfolio features one stock, Twilio, and Justen Stepka, our frequent guest and an Atlassian and, more relevant to today's conversation, Docker alum who has firsthand experience with Segment as a user. This is a fun conversation for anyone following Twilio, and it also adds interesting perspective on business strategy and SaaS valuations.
