#cookit: Weekend Tip – Greaseproof Paper Photo by Shortgirl Shortbread on Unsplash This weekend’s tip is all about greaseproof paper, one of my unsung kitchen heros. Here are a few things you can do with it that you might not have tried: Use as a cartouche on a soup or stew to prevent liquid loss or skins forming Fold around meat (such as a chicken breast) to protect when pan-roasting Use to line a bowl before tossing and salting chips or french fries immediately after cooking Use on top of your chopping board when working with fish, it’s surprisingly grippy Wrap your cheese ..read more

#cookit: BBQ Seb-Slaw! Photo by Arnaldo Aldana on Unsplash It’s kinda funny. My good buddy Christian Buckley (an American, of course) commented that he was upset that my #sebslaw series is based on “laws from Seb” as opposed to being about delicious shredded vegetables in tangy dressings.  Little did he know, there are a number of Slaw ideas being published in the Cook It! series…  I do like having the last laugh. This slaw was quite literally invented by accident, a “leftovers slaw” if you will.  Don’t get too hung up on precision of measurement, if you’ve ..read more

The Value of Intelligent Migration to Office 365 Legacy ECM systems have provided sophisticated functionality to organizations for some time. With capabilities that include document management, content management, records management, and archiving; ECM systems often store the history of an organization in the form of its content. With escalating cost and dwindling skills, as we lose the IBM educated ‘grey-haired generation’ from the workforce, older ECM solutions are increasingly becoming a burden on today’s modern enterprise with the challenges of operating such a service beginning to outwe ..read more

Personal Governance Governance is not just about how your systems and services are managed and administrated, it is also about how the information held within your services is used, controlled and stored. In an announcement this week (June 25th, 2019) Microsoft has launched a needle shifting piece of functionality to its OneDrive consumer product. ‘OneDrive Personal Vault’ brings Enterprise grade security to a specified portion of your OneDrive storage both in the cloud and on-device.

Why Can Users Create Microsoft Teams?
sebmatthews.net
by Seb Matthews
4y ago
Teams for All! Microsoft Teams can be created (by default) by anyone in your Office 365 tenant. Microsoft describes this as ‘preventing IT staff being inundated with requests to create Teams’ which although noble, is naive. The challenges brought in SharePoint (since the year dot) with regards to users being able to create sites wherever they want seem to be promulgating to Office 365. Ignoring the governance challenges for now (we will cover in other posts) without 3rd party tools such as ProvisionPoint, if every user can crea ..read more

What Really Matters When Migrating to Office 365?

Over the last few years I have been involved in some pretty large migration projects. With over one million users migrated to the cloud on my watch, across a number of customers. I would like to think I have more than enough experience to comment on what really matters when migrating to Microsoft 365. In all of these projects I have heard the same rhetoric repeatedly, and I mean repeatedly, the same tick-list over and over from CIO’s across the world: we want to save money we want to work smarter we want to improve our use of I ..read more

Are Citizen Developers Dangerous?
sebmatthews.net
by Seb Matthews
4y ago
The possibilities of citizen development are ever increasing. The Power Platform and Flow (in the Microsoft ecosystem) are becoming increasingly ubiquitous and we are starting to see more and more exotic use of the capabilities that far extend (in my view) beyond the intent of the technology.  Citizen Developers make me nervous. There. I said it. In my view we’re in a race to the first serious media explosion over a ‘leak’ caused by home-brew applications written by sales folks or accountants. Let’s be clear. I get the benefits ..read more

Should I Backup Exchange Online Mailboxes?
sebmatthews.net
by Seb Matthews
4y ago
Backup? For Office 365? Are you nuts? Microsoft takes care of it, no? Microsoft does indeed take care of the availability of the infrastructure associated to operating Office 365 and Exchange Online but the safety of your data is a shared responsibility which is clearly articulated in Microsoft’s service agreements (that you ‘sign’ when you consume Office 365 services). Let’s face it. It is fairly unlikely that Microsoft will have a catastrophic failure within its datacenter fabric that is so serious it wipes out your Exchange ..read more
