Did you catch Microsoft Build earlier this week? If not, no worries! We've got your recap right here.

🟢 𝐌𝐢𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐨𝐟𝐭 𝐅𝐚𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐜 is positioned as the foundation for moving from isolated AI experiments to production-ready agent systems, where each new agent builds on shared organizational context.

🟢 𝐑𝐚𝐲𝐟𝐢𝐧 adds another layer: an open-source SDK and CLI that lets developers and coding agents describe what to build and get an enterprise-grade application backend directly into the application code.

🟢 𝐀𝐳𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐇𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐳𝐨𝐧𝐃𝐁 is the new fully managed, PostgreSQL‑compatible database that combines PostgreSQL familiarity with cloud‑scale architecture, delivering storage up to 128 TB and massive scale‑out compute power.

For many Tribal Nations, keeping member data on-premises has long felt like the safest choice. But physical location alone does not guarantee protection.

🔻 A local server can still miss critical patches.
🔻 Backups can fail.
🔻 Old software can create security gaps.

And when those things happen, the impact is felt beyond IT. It affects every department that depends on accurate, secure, and accessible information to provide services.

Secure cloud infrastructure gives Tribal Nations another path. It can help protect member data, improve continuity, support field work, connect departments, and make services easier for members to access. Sarah Jelinek, our director of Power Platform and Tribal Solutions, covers all this and more in her latest article: https://arcticit.com/the-risk-of-keeping-tribal-data-on-premises/

If you’re ready to secure your Tribal member data, connect with us today to get the conversation started.

Understand the risks of keeping tribal data on-premises and how cloud solutions can strengthen security, access, and resilience. Learn more.

In April, we brought together two of our favorite motivations through our 𝙎𝙥𝙧𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙄𝙣𝙩𝙤 𝙒𝙚𝙡𝙡𝙣𝙚𝙨𝙨 campaign: staying active and giving back to the community.

More than 30 team members rose to the occasion by meeting their Run With Us wellness goals, resulting in a $1,000 donation to our friends at Challenge Alaska – an organization dedicated to improving the lives of Alaskans living with disabilities through adaptive sports and therapeutic recreation.

Thank you, Stan, for stopping by to deliver the fun news! 🌟
