Guest speaker Bob Beatty will be there to talk about the do's and don'ts of doing business in Panama and how to keep up with SAM at a bar when it's midnight and you just want to go to bed. There will also be a lunch and learn on how to hire beautiful women in IT with co-speaker Scott Alan Miller.

When does having SAN make sense?
When you can afford to buy two of them....

@scottalanmiller said in Hot Topics for MangoCon 2019:
Why not start making the list now? No reason, so let's start.
Naming conventions in Azure. How to properly build infrastructure in Azure. How to use load balancers in Azure to create an always on (and secure) environment.
Azure

Do we have a date and location for this yet? For planning purposes.
-
And can it be late enough in the year so I can attend? At least I hope that I can swing it as I don't do as much IT as I once did.

It is supposed to be in late spring last time I had a conversation with anyone about this.
That was pretty much the point of skipping this year anything would’ve been too soon

Automation and immutable design.
You could give this talk!

May 8-10

@scottalanmiller How technical do we want to be?
I have a few things I can do at different levels.
But a small conference is not going to be deep enough in attendance to have something super technical that appeals to more than a few people in the crowd.
-
I'm thinking a well stocked conference room would be the cat's meow for a smaller-ish conference.
I'd be more than happy to contribute as we're focused on SMB/SME.

Decently technical. Kind of on a scale of 1-10, maybe a 6-8

Topic ideas?
As far as presentations go for me?
- SMB/SME IT Business Pearls - The ups and downs of building a SMB/SME IT Support Practice
- Server Systems and Fabrics: Building for workloads - Baselining and Building
- Server Hardware: Firmware horror stories
- Hyper-Converged: All things HCI focused
- What's in a Lab: Building on a budget
- Active Directory: Designing for Security and Flexibility
- Group Policy: Lock things down without user complaint
- Windows File & Print: Configuring for security and flexibility
- Remote Desktop Services: Baselining and Designing for user workloads (standalone and farm)
- PowerShell: Got lots of scripts to share and tools guidance
- Windows Cluster: Hyper-V, Storage Spaces, Storage Spaces Direct
- Windows Admin Center: Monitoring
- Monitoring: Telegraf, InfluxDB, and Grafana S/U for Windows
The above is off the top.
I've done a lot of this one over the last year or two:
- Business and Personal Security: Protecting your data, resources access, and identity
How'z that for a start?

Well, the previous Mangocons have featured both food and alcohol. I think we'll be covered

I'd personally like to see this and bet it would be popular.
