Join the Azure DocumentDB team at Microsoft Ignite 2026 in San Francisco!

Sr. Technical Product Marketing Manager

Microsoft Ignite 2026 is just around the corner! From November 17–20, the Azure DocumentDB team will be in San Francisco, and we’re excited to connect with developers, architects, and database professionals from around the world.

We’re especially looking forward to our breakout session, Migrate and modernize MongoDB applications with Azure DocumentDB (BRK375).

In this session, we’ll explore how to migrate existing MongoDB applications to Azure DocumentDB while minimizing migration risks and disruption. We’ll walk through the migration journey – from assessing compatibility and moving data to validating application behavior and optimizing for production.

You’ll also learn how familiar MongoDB drivers, tools, and development patterns help preserve your existing investments, and discover how the latest Azure DocumentDB capabilities can help you go beyond migration and modernize your applications on Azure.

Session details

Our speakers include Abinav Rameesh from Microsoft, Hunter Bernhardt from Abercrombie & Fitch, and Felipe Vega from AB InBev (BEES).

In addition to our breakout session, you’ll find the Azure DocumentDB team in the Expert Meetup area throughout Microsoft Ignite. Stop by to meet our product experts, ask questions, discuss your MongoDB migration plans, or learn more about the latest Azure DocumentDB capabilities.

Whether you’re exploring Azure DocumentDB for the first time, modernizing an existing application, or looking for technical guidance, we’d love to connect with you!

We look forward to seeing you at Microsoft Ignite in San Francisco – or having you join us online!
