About speaker

Brian Harry (Brian Harry)
Microsoft Technical Councilor

Brian Harry is a member of Microsoft technical council and leads the team developing a world-famous product for team software development - Team Foundation Server. Being a server solution, it allows you to fundamentally increase the productivity, predictability, speed and flexibility of software development teams due to the fact that all team members have easy access to the information necessary to make the right decisions quickly.

Harry worked at DaVinci Systems for creating email software from 1988 to 1992. In 1992, he left DaVinci Systems with two colleagues to establish One Tree Software. One Tree was a classic start-up "in the garage," which created and began selling a product that became world-famous at the time - SourceSafe (later this product became known to the whole world as Microsoft Visual SourceSafe). One Tree Software became part of Microsoft in 1994. After merging with Microsoft, Harry began working in the division of tools and databases.

He worked on SourceSafe for several years and then on the Microsoft Repository. In 1996, Brian and his colleagues began working on improving the availability of software interfaces (APIs) for the masses of developers. Despite the fact that it began as a study of ways to extend COM, it eventually turned into a well-known .NET Framework development platform. Harry was the development manager for the Common Language Runtime and then the head of the V1 release for most of the V1.1 cycle.

In 2002, Brian led the Microsoft development center in North Carolina and formed the Team Foundation Server development team.
