Microsoft Ignite takes place online from 2 to 4 March and is a major calendar event for technology professionals, from developers to those executives responsible for purchasing and investment decisions in enterprise technology, data, automation and security solutions.
Agrawal has been chosen to share his expertise in the combination of open source technologies deployed in the Azure cloud. Specifically, he will present on the topic: 'How to migrate your Java/Spring Boot Apps to Azure Spring Cloud.'
"I am so excited about the extension of our Java skills into the Microsoft Framework," says Damian Potter, head of Microsoft Services and Solutions Delivery at DVT. "Saurabh is passionate about technology and loves to share his experience and knowledge. Microsoft Ignite is the perfect event platform to do this."

"I'm thrilled to be presenting at Microsoft Ignite this year," says Agrawal. "To quote Steve Jobs, I'm a person who always likes to 'stay hungry, stay foolish'. I like to push myself to keep on improving and to learn new things."
