Speaking at DevOps Indonesia joint collaboration with MUGI Jakarta: DevOps Indonesia May 2020 online meetup!

Hi my blog audiences!

If you have followed me last year, I have had collaboration with DevOps Indonesia meetup, now this month I have had another good collaboration with DevOps Indonesia.

On 19th May 2020, we collaborate on having joint collaboration, on behalf of DevOps Indonesia! We were having a wonderful teamwork!
This is the meetup link: https://www.meetup.com/DevOps-Indonesia/events/270642522/

I was participating as speaker to represent MUGI Jakarta, and also helping to give feedback on how the meetup should be, because this is MUGI Jakarta and DevOps Indonesia's first online meetup!

Here, we were using Zoom to host about 50 participants:

This is intriguing! Yes, I have had online remote speaking at Louisville meetup, but now I decided to record the video first and ask Mia and Wisnu from DevOps Indonesia to play the video during my session. This is necessary, because I was having unstable internet the day before the meetup.

There were 2 speakers, one is Gopesh Maindola, a Consulting Engineer from Palo Alto Networks, and then me. I'm proudly represent MUGI Jakarta! 😍

On this meetup, I presented "Adopting shift left and sift right in DevOps". I also gave more sample use cases using the proven best practices from Microsoft, the Azure Cloud design patterns and how Microsoft implements DevOps in its own organization.

First, we have opening from DevOps Indonesia. The team, Wisnu and Mia presenting DevOps Indoonesia meetup timeline:

This is me presenting in recorded video::

I gave use cases from Azure Docs page:

And another nice thing is the online meetup was live on Youtube!

Enjoy the recording video and welcome to "new normal"! 😊

Representing as Microsoft MVP at DevCon Digital Economy Summit

Hi guys!
I'm humbly proud that I have participated at the DevCon Digital Economy Summit 2020 that hosted by Microsoft Indonesia!
This event is held at Ritz Carlton Hotel, Pacific Place, Jakarta.

I was part of MVP Indonesia team that helps Microsoft Indonesia to promote, spread the event information, and also taking care of special MVP Indonesia's booth.

We are sooo honored to have President of Indonesia, HM Joko Widodo and MS CEO, Satya Nadella!

Here's me and fellow MVPs (Andri Yadi), taking care of MS MVP Booth, answering any questions about software development, .NET, and Visual Studio:

And we (Andri Yadi, Agus Suparno, Adiityo) still had some fun taking pictures with MS Asia's Annie Matthew and MS Indonesia's Irving Hutagalung:

Yup, I'm glad that I could provide help for software developer communities thru this conference! 😉

Speaking and mentoring on Preparation of your first tech talk at Global Diversity CFP Day 2020 Jakarta

Hi my blog audiences!

Again, this year is a sweet-speaking-busy year! I mean positively busy speaking and sharing what I know but also sharing experiences! Now, I'm also mentoring! Sweeet!

Thanks to offer from Sarah Thiam, Microsoft APAC Developer Relation PM that asking me to help mentoring and speaking for this community meetup, Global Diversity CFP Day!

NOTE: CFP stands for Call For Paper, and it's a common term of open/available opportunity to submit your proposal paper for speaking talks.

To be honest, this is my second speaking about diversity in 2007. At that time I was speaking for small meetup group in Surabaya to empower women developers. This time, I'm not just speaking, I'm mentoring! 😊

Also thanks to Microsoft Indonesia for sharing and supporting its venue for this meetup! I am so grateful, folks!

This was the event announcement: (at https://bit.ly/gdcfpjkt2020)

Not just me, we also had an array of amazing community speakers like Galuh, Kiki, Imre Nagi Adrianti Rusli, Prabu Rangki, Hepiska Pranata.

First, we have opening speech from Kiki and Galuh:

In that photo, Galih explained about common speaking paper submission for call for paper opening. She also explained how to get/search for call for paper opportunity. Great tips!

Then I deliver how to prepare your first tech talk. Put it simply, don't be afraid to start submitting your proposal, guys!

I welcome noobies, of course! Because..

Therefore it's quite similar on how continuous integration and continuous deployment on DevOps works, THERE IS ALWAYS A CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENTS 😊

I also deliver an analogy while at the same time presenting Azure DevOps conceptually:

Next, Prabu Rangky presented on how to deliver your speech and presentation effectively:

Full of cool tips!

Then we had cool presentation about How to ensure accessibility on your presentation, delivered by Adrianti Rusli:

Last but not least, we had cool presentation on how to do live demo for speaking, by Imre Nagi:

Next step is the real DO, the workshop!

The workshop was so amazing! All of the participants were eager and anxious to start wrting a speaking paper proposal:

Those participants were also encouraged to deliver 5-min talk, to ensure that they are actually doing it 😊

The event final moments are nicely done, we wrapped up in a freestyle photo session in front of Microsoft Indonesia receptionist desk 😉

That's it! 

PS: I always open to be invited for speaking for not just my own community, but also other communities especially for those communities promoting diversity like this!

Speaking at local Purwokerto's .NET Conf 2019 meetup!

Hi my blog readers!

If you have followed my blog trails, you'll see that this year (2019) since January I am mostly invited as speakers in various Indonesian meetups, especially topics on .NET, Azure, and Azure DevOps!

On 26th October, I was invited to speak at MUGI Purwokerto's event of .NET Conf 2019, at UNSOED Purwokerto. Thanks for the invitation, my MVP colleague Agus Suparno!

I'm so excited, because my other MVP colleague, Agus Kurniawan is also invited as speaker, not just Agus Suparno and me!

In this event I spoke about "Best practice of  .NET Core 3.0 CI/CDs using Azure DevOps", Agus Kurniawan presented .NET support for Apache Spark, and Agus Suparno talks about .NET ML (Machine Learning).

The audiences were enthusiastic, and there were some questions to me, especially when they want to start to learn .NET as platforms, especially there was an exchange student, he was Adnan Derbani. Thanks for adding me on LinkedIn!

Here are Agus K, Agus S and me presenting, starting from me:

And Agus Suparno:

Then Agus Kurniawan:

We also have learned some Big Data in Management perspective from Dr.Ade Irma Anggraeni, Senior Lecturer at UNSOED. Cool!

And a surprise bonus, a DevOps for practical for companies, presented by Darmawan Suandi:

Wow, it was a blast!

Can't wait to start more collaboration with other communities outside Jakarta! 😊❤
