Hi there! Welcome to my blog. My name is Ivan. I am a Dutch IT Professional working as Principal IT Consultant. Windows 7 is the latest operating system released by Microsoft today (June 2011). Windows 7 was released to manufacturing on July 22, 2009 and since then I am heavily involved in engineering the new client platform for an enterprise environment.
As an enterprise company we have waited for a long time to see a major release after Windows XP. We have skipped Windows Vista and working with the new client it brought many new challenges. Windows 7 includes a number of new features at top of Windows Vista which we never saw before. Bitlocker volume encryption and Key Management Service for license activations were two important features to learn, test and implement in an enterprise.
In 2010 I have prepared and managed a Windows 7 migration project where the target was to migrate 500+ managed clients. During that time I needed to learn various aspects of Project Management and also engineer and prepare the Windows 7 client for implementation.
The migration project to Windows 7 went very smooth from project perspective and during that time I learned the new operating system in real live.
