1105 Media Announces Visual Studio Live! as Part of Live! 360 Orlando

Visual Studio Live! celebrates 22 years of education and training for the developer community

Chatsworth, CA, September 01, 2015 - 1105 Media's Enterprise Computing Group – the publishers of MSDN and Redmond magazines - has announced that Visual Studio Live! will return as part of Live! 360, taking place November 16 – 20, 2015 at the Loews Royal Pacific Resort in Orlando, FL, as one of five co-located events that comprise the conference. SQL Server Live!, SharePoint Live!, TechMentor, and Modern Apps Live! round out the event, with attendees having access to all five conferences!

Visual Studio Live! Orlando 2015 is being billed as part of 'The Ultimate Education Destination', bringing a cadre of coding experts to this sunny local to anchor the Live! 360 event. With a focus on current and upcoming development technologies, Visual Studio Live! offers developers, engineers, software architects, and designers exclusive access to a week of unbiased and cutting-edge education on the Microsoft platform.

Visual Studio ALM MVP Brian Randell joins Visual Studio Live! veterans Andrew Brust and Rocky Lhotka to share conference chair duties, bringing with him over 20 years of software development experience. "This year we have a new platform in Windows 10 to consider, new tools in Visual Studio 2015, and a whole set of enhancements to the ALM stack with Team Foundation Server 2015 and Visual Studio Online," says Randell. "We think there's a great way to digest these changes and seize their collective opportunity, and that's to hear about them directly from the finest expert speakers in the business."

Visual Studio Live! topics include:

  • Visual Studio / .NET Framework
  • Windows Client, including Windows 10/WinRT, and WPF
  • Web Development
  • Cloud Computing
  • Mobile Client
