Microsoft Cloud Show show

Summary: <p>AC and CJ discuss the day the internet disappeared (in the US at least) due to someone’s bad day at Level3. We also dive into Azure CDN improvements and the new FUSE driver for Linux VMs in Azure. We finish up with some API deprecation news out of Office 365 and the new deprecation policy they are using. </p><p>Notes:</p><p>Banter</p> <ul> <li><a href="https://twitter.com/andrewconnell/status/925531766114406400">AC on Halloween</a></li> </ul> <p>News</p> <ul> <li>Random <ul> <li><a href="https://www.wired.com/story/how-a-tiny-error-shut-off-the-internet-for-parts-of-the-us/">HOW A TINY ERROR SHUT OFF THE INTERNET FOR PARTS OF THE US</a></li> <li><a href="https://twitter.com/ChazVMTG/status/927621108072886274">Comcast Routing Issues</a></li> </ul> </li> <li>Azure <ul> <li><a href="https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/enable-azure-cdn-directly-from-azure-cloud-services-portal-extension/">Enable Azure CDN directly from Azure Cloud Services portal extension</a></li> <li><a href="https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/linux-fuse-adapter-for-blob-storage/">Linux FUSE adapter for Blob Storage</a></li> </ul> </li> <li>Office 365 <ul> <li><a href="https://blogs.office.com/en-us/2017/10/31/new-to-office-365-in-october-online-tools-microsoft-ai-and-more/">New to Office 365 in October—online tools, Microsoft AI, and more</a></li> <li><a href="https://dev.office.com/blogs/improved-support-for-office-ui-fabric-core">Announcing improved support in SharePoint Framework for Office UI Fabric Core</a></li> <li><a href="https://blogs.office.com/en-us/2017/10/18/visio-online-and-visios-new-cloud-innovations-help-you-unlock-creativity/">Visio Online and Visio’s new cloud innovations help you unlock creativity</a></li> <li><a href="https://dev.office.com/blogs/outlook-rest-api-v1-0-office-365-discovery-and-live-connect-api-deprecation">Outlook REST API v1.0, Office 365 Discovery and Live Connect API deprecation</a></li> </ul> </li> </ul> <p>AC’s Picks</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://rapidcityjournal.com/news/local/communities/belle_fourche/fifty-three-year-old-nuclear-missile-accident-revealed/article_653347a4-04e8-5c29-a778-3a6a6c3cfd84.html">Fifty-three year old nuclear missile accident revealed</a></li> <li><a href="https://amzn.to/2yd9aPu">Code Warriors: NSA’s Codebreakers and the Secret Intelligence War Against the Soviet Union</a></li> </ul> <p>CJ’s Picks</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://viralfrequency.com/16-amazing-color-corrected-photos-apollo-missions/">16 Amazing Color-Corrected Photos from the Apollo Missions</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/news/asian-america/meet-70-year-old-runner-who-ran-7-marathons-7-n722551">Meet the 70-Year-Old Runner Who Ran 7 Marathons on 7 Continents in 7 Days</a></li> </ul> <p><strong></strong></p> <p><strong>The Microsoft Cloud Show sponsored by: </strong></p> <p><a href="https://en.share-gate.com/?utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=MCS&amp;utm_source=MicrosoftCloudShow"><img src="http://assets.microsoftcloudshow.com/media/mscloudshow/logos/sharegate.png" width="150" border="0"></a><br> <a href="https://en.share-gate.com/?utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=MCS&amp;utm_source=MicrosoftCloudShow">Sharegate</a> makes it easier for organizations to adopt and use the latest Microsoft productivity tools, helping millions of users be happier and more productive at work.
