After some careful consideration, I’ve decided to start a new blog over at:
Over time you may have seen me post articles like IoT here, which aren’t probably strictly on topic for this blog. I also now have a growing business around design and solving problems using tools like 3D printers and CAD design. Lumping all of that in here with the existing content I feel would be a distraction I’ve decided, and thus, all of that is better in its own unique area.
The stuff in the CIAOPSLabs is going to be more about me working through ideas, design, and decision processes, rather than showing what the end results is, which is what I kind of do more here in this blog. So the topics in CIAOPSLabs are going to be far more random as I see it as a ‘catch all’ for everything that doesn’t make sense in this blog.
My approach to any blog has always been primarily about creating a location for me to document things I might need to remember as well as creating an audit trail of what I did when. I’ve already started posting things up there and you’ll also find an account on X as well as YouTube. I like to make my experiences public so that they in turn help someone else. I also see it as a kind of ‘pay it forward’ to all those who have created content that I have consumed in my journey.
Please note that the content across the CIAOPSLabs resources is still a work in progress and will expand out overtime. It simply comes down to the time available for me, but at least I now have somewhere to document a range of topics I have been holding off on for a while. It needs a lot more polish I’ll admit, but at east now it has started!
If you are interested in problem solving and things like 3D printing, IoT, creating real world stuff and generally trying to be more productive then add the CIAOPSLabs to your follows. If you are mainly focused on the Microsoft Cloud, Microsoft 365, Azure, Defender, Power Platform and so on, then you are already in the right place and I thank you for following my content here.
Thanks again to everyone who takes the time to subscribe to this blog and I hope to see some of you over at CIAOPSLabs as well as the journey there begins.
