Microsoft DevOps Gold Competency Assessment – Passed!
Today I passed the new Azure DevOps Assessment (18473), happy!
After taking and passing the exams a couple of years ago, the requirements are changed for achieving Gold DevOps Partner status. The current exams are going to retire and are replaced by a new online assessment which I passed today.

Interesting VSTS updates july 2018
Below are some nice articles and blogposts I came across on the web about VSTS and related stuff.
- Some cool updates to the Stakeholder access level. Stakeholders will be able to do more if granted the access, and can be an admin in the VSTS account.
- You can move from your imported XML process to an inherited one soon, and it will be a lot easier. Bye bye XML.
- Here’s how to recover a deleted GIT repository.
- If you are using RedGate steps in your build or release definitions be sure to check these new SQL Change Automation stuff. Might come in handy.
Thanks to the authors and publishers of the articles! Learning fast…and able to keep up with new stuff, nice!

Caesar Experts -> Delta N
Het gaat nu toch echt gebeuren. Na ruim 18 jaar medewerker van Caesar te zijn geweest ga ik aan een nieuwe uitdaging beginnen bij Delta-N.
Middels deze weg wil ik iedereen bij Caesar, die ik niet al persoonlijk bedankt heb, bedanken voor de fijne samenwerking aan mooie opdrachten voor zowel Caesar als de klanten van Caesar. Ik heb heel veel geleerd van jullie allemaal en ik ben trots dat ik bij zo’n mooi bedrijf heb gewerkt!
Bij Delta-N kan ik mijn ambitie als DevOps consultant verder gaan invullen in een team met mede DevOps consultants met passie.
De IT wereld is niet zo groot dus we zien en spreken elkaar vast. Ik blijf bereikbaar onder hetzelfde mobiele nummer. Neem gerust contact op!
