Hi Matt - thank your for your question! Feel free to reach out to an Azure sales representative here, to help with finding the right contact - Contact Azure Sales | Microsoft Azure
- When is the next LTSC for Windows 10 coming out ? Did Microsoft anticipate a release now that there's Windows 11 ? Are LTSC customers expecting something that won't happen ? Is Windows 11 LTSC on the horizon ?
- Hello! This is an AMA about Azure Communication Services, so this question is out of scope for this particular event. You could certainly ask your question in the Windows 10 or Windows 11 communities: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/windows-10/bd-p/Windows10space https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/windows-11/bd-p/Windows11
- What about the chat first approach in ACS ? Who is also missing it by heart? We do need it for a realy awesome project....
- shawnhenryAzure Communication Services does support Chat! There's an overview of our Chat SDK here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/communication-services/concepts/chat/sdk-features ... and I highly recommend checking out our Chat Hero Sample here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/communication-services/samples/chat-hero-sample
- Let me give some more details - we do need a chat solution, where we have the option to escalate to voice and or video in the same session and communication frame we have set up. Perhaps even futher to screen sharing. I did not find that in the heroes I think.
- What is the best way to secure API's in ZAzure? Should I consider something like a FortiGate for Azure gateway? or is there enough native Azure features to secure them?
- Sorry typo ... Azure not ZAzure (not sure what that is) ....

Hi neilmcneely - thanks for your question!
This is very good timing since we just announced support for Azure Advisor for Azure Communication Services!
Azure Advisor will send you recommendations for different categories on how to optimize your Azure experience (via cost reduction, performance improvements, etc.). It will now send you recommendations when there are newer SDKs available. You can access this feature through the Azure Portal. To learn more about Azure Advisor in general, you can find the public docs here.
In addition, the Azure Communication Services team publishes release notes every two weeks with all the latest updates.
- Hello is this just a chat meeting or is there a video/audio link I am missing?
- Today's AMA event is entirely text-based. No video/audio link.

Microsoft Hello World on Channel 9
- Welcome to the Azure Communication Services Ask Microsoft Anything (AMA)! This live hour gives you the opportunity to ask questions and provide feedback. Please introduce yourself by replying to this thread.
- Good Morning!! I'm Sheila Parai, from Saskatchewan Canada. Matt Kopeck and I have been looking forward to this AMA!!
- Hello it's Matt Kopeck. I'm in Canada, so I have some geographic specific questions around the telephony pieces and their availability. Looking at this roadmap currently: https://github.com/Azure/Communication/projects/1 Pleased to meet everyone. Let Sheila introduce herself and then we will ask some questions.
- Pranita_KulkarniHello everyone! I'm Pranita Kulkarni, Program Manager for Azure Communication Services team.
With windows 11 there are improved Internet connection settings. Is it necessary to connect the device to the azure active directory / azure server via a connection authentication with 802.1X / proxy or is it secure enough with WIP (windows identity protection) and Edge ?
- Hello - thanks for the question. Unfortunately it is out of scope for this particular event - feel free to post your question in the Windows 11 community: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/windows-11/bd-p/Windows11
- thanks for the link but there are no contributions that can be discussed. My question is whether I actually have a secure connection with WIP with azure power apps and azure communications or do I need to set it up separately?
