Konstantinos Passadis posted thisInnovation, cutting edge, latest and greatest.....But what is the cost ? Look at this : The Agent Framework SDK went from beta → RC and consolidated all OpenAI chat clients (both OpenAI and Azure OpenAI) into a single OpenAIChatClient class that takes an azure_endpoint + credential parameter to talk to Azure. The old AzureOpenAIChatClient was dropped. Also, ChatAgent was renamed back to just Agent with client as the first arg (not chat_client). And here is the problem....shall we pin to the versions that work, like beta or live on the edge too and go for RC ? Eventually RCs will be GA and maybe that's the correct path, but...sleep much ? Thoughts ? #azure #agenticai #ai #MVPBuzz

Konstantinos Passadis reacted on thisKonstantinos Passadis reacted on thisGlobal Azure Athens 2026 just went absolutely OFF 🚀 We're talking ~270 Azure enthusiasts, 14 sessions, 12 amazing sponsors, and enough cloud energy to power an entire region 😂! It has also been a privilege to present with Lazaros Katanas "𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗽𝗵𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝘁𝗼 𝗽𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗹𝗲𝗴𝗲: 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗵𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘀 𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗔𝘇𝘂𝗿𝗲" where I did what any responsible security professional does: hacked myself live in front of everyone! Lazaros then swooped in like a guardian angel, walking the audience through Conditional Access policies, phishing-resistant auth, Defender for Cloud, Sentinel SIEM, and exactly how our security stack turns threat actors' day into a nightmare. We mapped every single step to the Cyber Kill Chain and MITRE ATT&CK because frameworks are not optional, they're a lifestyle 🗺️ 🔗 Slides are here (live demo not included, sorry!): https://lnkd.in/ebsJ-E5d To my fellow night-owl co-organizers George Markou, Konstantinos Passadis, and Antonios Chatzipavlis 8 months of late-night planning, endless coffee, and "just one more thing" calls later... we pulled it off. Again. I salute you all 🫡 Can't wait to see what we cook up for next year! To our incredible speakers and volunteers, you are the event. Full stop. To our sponsors, you believed in this vision and we can't thank you enough. Spoiler: you're going to want to be part of what's coming next 😉 And to every single person who showed up, you're the reason we keep doing this. See you next year! 🙌 #GlobalAzure #GlobalAzureAthens #MicrosoftCommunity

Konstantinos Passadis reacted on thisKonstantinos Passadis reacted on thisWhat a day.... Global Azure Athens 2026 was everything we hoped for, and then some. 270 attendees, 14 sessions, 15 incredible speakers. Including two international guests who flew in all the way from the Netherlands and the UK to share their expertise with our community. All of this unfolded at the iconic Technopolis in the heart of Gazi, Athens. Greece may be a small country, but our tech community? Anything but small. 💙 Ofc, none of this happens without the people who show up, our volunteers, community members, and sponsors who pour their time and passion into making events like this possible. You are the backbone of everything we do. Next year? We're going even bigger... Stay tuned, and thank you everyone, for reminding us why we love this community so much.
