Namensänderung bei Office365 zu Microsoft365

Microsoft is once again changing something in the Office 365 product portfolio. But this time, in my opinion, for the better.

Overview of the migration from one Office 365 account to a new Office 365 account - The easy and manual way

As MCT, I have a developer tenant for Office 365, and this year we are finally getting access to the Microsoft 365 function, i.e. Enterprise Mobility and Security. The disadvantage is that a new tenant is required and so a migration is pending. But at the same time, a lot of things have to be set up from scratch. I take the opportunity to write a series of blog posts directly from this.

Webserver Überwachung mit PRTG

This time an article slightly outside the Microsoft world. This time there is an excursion into monitoring and the monitoring of web servers under Linux.
