Speaking at Fall 2019 Boston Azure Data and AI Fest
December 6, 2019
Boston Azure Data and AI Fest 2019 is a 2-day event on Tuesday, December 10th, and Wednesday the 11th of 2019, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM at the Microsoft Technology Center at 5 Wayside Rd, Burlington, MA 01803. I am honored, humbled, and super excited to deliver a session on Kusto Query Language. I am thankful to the organizers for the opportunity.
This event is sold out.
If you use Azure, you must learn Kusto Query Language?
Kusto is a service for storing and running interactive analytics over Big Data. Kusto was designed from scratch to be a “big data” repository for Azure and easy to query using Kusto Query Language (KQL). As we make progress in our migration to the cloud, we are learning new ways to monitor and alert on resources and services. Microsoft has consolidated many services under the umbrella of ‘Azure Monitor’. Whether you are ‘detecting and diagnose issues across applications and dependencies’, ‘correlate infrastructure issues with Azure Monitor for VMs’, ‘drill into your SQL database monitoring data with Log Analytics’ you will be using ‘Azure Monitor’. Azure Monitor uses a version of the KQL used by Azure Data Explorer that is suitable for simple log queries but also includes advanced functionality such as aggregations, joins, and smart analytics. Going forward, the KQL must be your primary resource for querying the Azure Monitor log.
In this 95% demo session, I will show you some ‘getting started’ tips and a few sophisticated queries using KQL. At the end of this session, beginners will have a solid knowledge about KQL that they can build upon by themselves; others will also learn many advance operators, including machine learning ones. Come and learn about the future of monitoring and investigations of Azure services.

There is a great line up of speakers presenting some powerful sessions. Here is the full agenda for Tuesday.
There are three hands-on workshops on Wednesday. You can join one of these hands-on workshops without any cost if you register for the Tuesday event. Details about the hands-on workshops are here.
