Life - Short span

logged in after so many time. just to write some thoughts ..going in mind..just now lost a great-great friend / mentor forever "Bhavin" https://in.linkedin.com/in/bhavinraichura.
There are very few people you always adore, you always want to work with them. and I lost one such mentor / great vision today.
Many things coming and going in mind, including the always puzzling life and how it is short or big . who decides how much long or short life some one has. for some ppl life is never ending and for some it is cut short.
 Importantly the person who is gone is gone, I do not know what happened to him but I know what happened to rest, the heart goes with them. When a daughter misses his father , when a son misses his mother, when a child misses either of the parent and when parents are there to see their child going forever.
   I just have one request to life line maker, either give some good number on life line or do not give any. why so much pain? if you want to trouble us , there are different ways why do you take person forever, we can still be together , fighting and struggling, why to vanish. or if at all Vanish ..erase complete group together do not break into pieces. There is no need to make diseases or reasons, just tell us, your time is up.
You know god it is really difficult to bear all this, simply stop doing this!

On-Prem Data On office 365 Team site

hi,
lastly I was working on one of the common scenario with new release :) " Bringing On-Premise data to Office 365".

with all authentication problems and restriction in creating App, I was trying for OOB way. The options I had -

• PowerBI - [No for my scene as real time was required, and this gives scheduling option latest for 1 day]
• Excel Web Access - [ Still good , only problem was data refresh which was achieved through javascript EWA refresh]
• Good Old JavaScript - [ The best but takes away data modeling from business user for future]

You know I am not considering Access App even as option why? there is no OOB way to sync On-Prem data. which effectively means once you created you web DB you will not get latest from On-Prem, why cause this web DB is nothing but Sql Azure DB, so no real application , until customer promise there will be no change in on-prem DB :(

So I am going ahead with EWA :(

Enjoy !!

SharePoint / microsoft Online teamsite developers Problem

Hi,
Got chance to work on SharePoint online Team site. Trying to summarize the first hand problems I faced -

1. Correlation ID is of no use - as it is generated on server and server is not in your control.
2. ULS viewer - no use, developer has no access to server.
3. Cross Site publishing feature not available on team site also publishing feature depends on other features which needs web level scope.
4.  Designer is a way to customize until developer is allowed to do so. (but at page level :))
5. I couldn't find a simple way for backup and restore without shelling out money. [MSFT normally backup in 15 days and once your back up is restored your recent data is gone, go to 3rd party and shell out money]
6. learn good javascript.

Will keep blog few more findings later.

keep coding!!
