Oporto Global Integration Bootcamp Agenda

09:00 Registration opens and welcome

10:00 BIZTALK 2016 IN A HYBRID WORLD
The integration landscape has definitely evolved into a hybrid; significant on-premises investments have accumulated over the years, while cloud computing has brought new challenges and new ways to implement integration. Let’s navigate the innovations in both worlds and how BizTalk and the cloud currently coexist. – Ricardo Torre

11:00 BIZTALK OCTOPUS DEPLOY
How to deploy BizTalk solutions with Octopus – José António Silva & Pedro Sousa, DevScope

11:30 Coffee-break

11:45 UNLEASH THE POWER OF IOT WITH SHAREPOINT 
SharePoint is becoming modern; there are modern sites ready for mobile, a modern framework to develop web parts, but what about embracing modern concepts?

The Internet of Things will be everywhere in the blink of an eye, and you are probably already dealing with it every day without even knowing.

In this session, we will explain how to collect data from sensors, send it to SharePoint, and how to display it in a modern dashboard using modern SharePoint sites.

The possibilities are endless, from temperature sensors to access control devices, you can have all this data inside your SharePoint Intranet with a modern look and feel. – João Ferreira, BindTuning

12:45 THE SPEAKER NIGHTMARE: Eval Forms & OCR & Logic Apps & Power BI
In this session, I will show and explain a real-life demo on how we can easily build a robust solution for process evaluation forms using OCR software and integrate it with Power BI to present the results in an interactive, beautiful way. But most important: How can you educate your enterprise Developers and IT pros users to easily extend capabilities for power users, who understand their business challenges the best, and allow them to use their familiar tools like OCR software to process Evaluation forms and quickly build and deliver Power BI solutions to build Interactive Data dashboards. And at the same time, integrate these tools, platforms, or systems quickly and robustly using the integration feature in Azure, such as Logic Apps, API Apps, and Azure Functions. How to start from a simple solution and evolve it, enabling new functionalities. – Sandro Pereira, Microsoft Integration MVP

13:15 Lunch and Networking
