Need to Know Podcast–Episode 100

Holy flying sharks Batman, the Need to Know Podcast has reached 100 regular episodes! Who would have ever thought back in 2010 when I kicked the podcast off, that I’d still be putting it out? Although the episodes haven’t been as regular as I would have liked over the years I thank everyone who has taken the time to listen and especially those people who have been guests. My guests have given both their time and knowledge to listens which I really appreciate.

So now it is onwards and upwards to the next 100 episodes. If you haven’t already, I’d really appreciate you leaving a review on iTunes or just dropping me a line (director@ciaops.com) and letting me know what you think and importantly if there is anything I can do to improve the podcast. Once again, thanks to everyone who has supported the podcast over its first 100 episodes and I’ll work hard to make sure the next 100 are even better.

As a follow on from our last episode on Azure storage, Marc and I now focus on the different storage options in Office 365 and how to take advantage of each. We consider best practices for data migrations as well as what experience has taught us when moving information to Office 365.
