xRM Cloud Acceleration Lab in Redmond

12/17/2010 Lascia un commento


From 6 to 9 of Dicember I was honored to be selected as Advisor for the “xRM Cloud Acceleration Lab”, based in Microsoft at Redmond. After 2 days of adventures to reach my final destination (I’ve spent 1 night in Amsterdam due to a snow storm), just arrived in Seattle I found my 2 great friends Kuba Skalbania (MVP) and Tomasz Luchowski, both from Poland.

All days were exciting and full of technical experiences. First Day, before starting the real work in the Lab, Kuba and me presented a session “xRM, CRM Online, BPOS and Office365″.

During the week, Sanjay assigns me the American Company CINCOM, and with Jerry Weinstock (MVP from CRM Innovation) we followed the project of Mr.Greg Doud and Mr.Bibek Dey, in the development of a very complex application.
We decided to build a webservices on top of a “Decisional System” owned by Cincom, and updated it on Azure Platform, installing also certificates (SSL) to secure the connection between Azure Environment and CRM2011. Consuming the webservice, the XML give different parameters to characterize different fields of CRM2011 (OnLine and On-Prem) of the Account Entity.

With this description it seems very simple…

For this great experience I would like to thank Sanjay Jain (ISV Architect & Evangelist) and also Girish Raja (ISV Evangelist)

Besides it was a great occasion to meet my great friends MVP Matt, Mitch, Ross, David, Shan, Jerry.

Dal 6 al 9 Dicembre (2010) ho avuto la fortuna di essere selezionato come Advisor per l’xRM Cloud Acceleration Lab, svoltosi in Microsoft a Redmond. Dopo un travagliato viaggio di ben 2 giorni (causa stop forzato per neve ad Amsterdam) , mi sono incontrato con i miei 2 grandi amici polacchi Kuba Skalbania (MVP) ed il suo “socio” Tomasz Luchowski.
A parte il fuso orario, tutta la settimana è stata davvero entusiasmante e ricca di esperienze tecniche.
Il primo giorno di Lab, prima di iniziare il vero e proprio lavoro, Kuba ed io abbiamo presentato la sessione “xRM, CRM Online, BPOS, Office 365“.
Durante la settimana poi mi è stata assegnata l’azienda americana CINCOM, ed in coppia con Jerry Weinstock (CRM Innovation) abbiamo seguito Mr.Greg Doud e Mr.Bibek Dey nello sviluppo di un’applicazione decisamente complessa.
Costruito on-top di un sistema decisionale proprietario di CINCOM un WebServices, abbiamo trasferito il tutto in Azure, installando anche una connessione sicura (SSL) per “consumare” l’XML prodotto dal WebService. Il sistema decisionale fornisce quindi alcuni parametri al CRM (On-Prem e On-Line) per poter differenziare alcune caratteristiche dell’entità Account, visibile esclusivamente ai Sales Manager.

Detta così sembra semplice…

Per questa grande esperienza ringrazio Sanjay Jain (ISV Architect & Evangelist) e poi anche Girish Raja (ISV Evangelist).

Ho poi avuto la possibilità di incontrare nuovamente i miei grandi amici MVP Matt, Mitch, Ross, David, Shan, Jerry.
