I have worked with Azure Automation since the early days, and one thing kept bothering me: the development experience never really felt right.
Too much of the process ended up split between the Azure portal, local scripts, manual testing, and deployment steps living somewhere else. It worked, but it rarely felt like a proper development workflow.

There is always something special about this event.
It is not just the sessions, the announcements, or the technology itself. It is the chance to be around people who care deeply about the products, the platforms, friends, and the work happening behind the scenes.
Every year, MVP Summit brings together a rare mix of energy, curiosity, expertise, and honest conversations, and that combination is hard to beat.

This is the follow-up to that post, and now I can finally say a bit more about it.
The project is a small website created as a tribute to 25 years of SharePoint. It is not meant to be a corporate timeline or a technical deep dive. Instead, it is something more personal: an interactive experience built around poetry, music, timing, and visuals, celebrating the people who have worked with SharePoint across very different eras.

For many of us, SharePoint has been part of our professional journey for years. It has evolved, adapted, expanded, and sometimes surprised us, but through all those changes it has remained one of the most important platforms in the Microsoft ecosystem. It shaped the way organizations collaborate, manage content, build intranets, automate processes, and connect people with information.

I have been preparing something special.
It has been quietly taking shape for a while now, and it comes from a frustration I have had for years.
Anyone who has spent serious time with Azure Automation knows the story: too much back and forth, too much portal dependency, too much friction between authoring, testing, debugging, and deployment.
We end up stitching together folders, scripts, manual checks, and half-working approaches when what we really want is a proper development experience.
That gap has bothered me for a long time.
I wanted something that treats runbooks like real source code.
Something workspace-first. Something Azure-connected. Something that feels closer to modern software engineering and much less like trial and error in a browser tab.

It was one of those small moments that somehow carries a lot of meaning.
When we spend years working with a platform, building on top of it, solving problems around it, and watching it evolve release after release, we also end up following the people helping shape that journey. Adam has been part of SharePoint’s evolution for years, helping guide its transformation with vision, clarity, and a remarkable ability to balance innovation with real-world needs.

From December 1 to December 4, 2025, the European SharePoint, Microsoft 365 & AI Conference brought together a lot of great people, great conversations, and a lot of practical knowledge sharing. I was very happy to be part of it with my session Implementing SCIM for Multi-Tenant Identity Management in M365 and Azure.
The session took place on Wednesday, December 3, 2025, in the IT Professional track, and focused on a challenge that many teams know all too well: how to keep identity provisioning and lifecycle management under control when multiple tenants are involved.
