Diginova 2019 – Les usages de Office 365 en Nouvelle-Calédonie

Diginova est un événement fédérateur dédié à créer des dynamiques et des passerelles entre la recherche, les entrepreneurs du numérique et les autres acteurs économiques en Nouvelle-Calédonie et dans le monde.

Pour cet évènement, Sylver Schorgen (MVP PowerShell) et moi avons eu la le plaisir de pouvoir présenter les usages de Office 365 dans les entreprises Calédonienne : d’où vient-on ? quelles sont nos contraintes insulaires ? où en sommes-nous aujourd’hui ? quelles sont les grandes tendances et les effets de levier pour les entreprises dans les prochains mois/années ?

Un évènement sur 3 jours qui aura marqué les esprits par son format, la qualité de ses intervenants et ses sujets innovants. De notre côté, des Afterworks Microsoft et autres évènements communautaires sont déjà prévus pour continuer de partager notre passion et promouvoir les technologies & outils qui permettent aux entreprises de se développer et à notre société de la faire avancer. Un nouveau vent numérique souffle la Calédonie … 😀

IMPORTANT NOTE : .NET Core Container Images now Published to Microsoft Container Registry

THIS IS AN IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: Microsoft is now publishing .NET Core container images to Microsoft Container Registry (MCR).

Note that Microsoft will continue to maintain Docker Hub repo pages so that you can discover and learn about .NET Core images. The Docker Hub website URLs you’ve used for Microsoft repos will continue to work, and forward to updated locations on Docker Hub.

Important :

  • Microsoft also made other changes to the images we publish, described in this post.
  • You will need to change FROM statements in Dockerfile files and docker pull commands as a result of these changes. 3.0 references need to be changed now. Most 1.x and 2.x usages can be changed over time. The new tag scheme is decribed in this post and are provided at the microsoft-dotnet-core repo, Microsoft new home on Docker Hub.

For more informations, please refer to this post on .NET Blog.

Reminder : .NET Core 1.0 and 1.1 will reach END OF LIFE on June 27, 2019

.NET Core 1.0 was released on June 27 2016 and .NET Core 1.1 was released on November 16 2016. As an LTS release, .NET Core 1.0 is supported for 3 years and .NET Core 1.1 fits into the same support timeframe as .NET Core 1.0.

So in short : .NET Core 1.0 and 1.1 will reach end of life and go out of support on June 27, 2019.

After this date of June 27, 2019, .NET Core updates will no longer include updated packages or Docker container images for .NET Core 1.0 and 1.1. But wait, no panic and this is for the best, upgrade from .NET Core 1.x to .NET Core 2.1 or 2.2.

.NET Core 2.1 is a long-term support (LTS) release so makes it your minimum standard for your development, even if I encourage you to use .NET Core 2.2. Why .NET Core 2.1 at least and not .NET Core 2.0 ? Because .NET Core 2.0 has already reached end-of-life, as of October 1, 2018

Upgrade to .NET Core 2.x

The supported upgrade path for .NET Core 1.x applications is via .NET Core 2.1 or 2.2. Instructions for upgrading can be found in the following documents (equally apply to .NET Core 2.1) :

The migration is quick and easy but be sure to bulletproof your application with heavy testing, I already found several minor issues while migrating from 1.1 to 2.1.
