Microsoft Ignite 2018, the company’s big event for IT pros and enterprise developers, attracted more than 26,000 attendees from more than 100 countries. The conference was held in conjunction with Microsoft Envision for IT decision makers.

The company made numerous announcements that targeted security, AI and data, and IoT and edge computing — all critical technologies for digital transformation. There were more than 700 deep-dive sessions and 100-plus expert-led and self-paced workshops for attendees.

And, when in Orlando … Microsoft held its Ignite Attendee Celebration at two Universal Orlando Resort theme parks. Did you miss it? Well, it’s not too soon to plan for next year: Microsoft Ignite, Nov. 4-8, 2019, again in Orlando.
