Bob Cornelissen

I am a managing consultant and founder at TopQore, specializing in Windows Server infrastructures on-prem, hybrid, and cloud. Monitoring and manageability using, for example, System Center products, Azure Arc, and more, and especially SCOM. Of course, my interests in other Microsoft Server products are profound as well, and I also still deploy those – Windows Server, Exchange, Hyper-V, AD and System Center and Security solutions and, of course, the Azure Cloud, Arc and AI, to name some great products.
As you might have found, most of my current career focuses on SCOM. I just love this product. One of the reasons is that it is versatile and touches all infrastructure components. This way, I get to implement SCOM and get into monitoring not only diverse Microsoft workloads but also network, storage, cross-platform, custom applications, and much more. I get to work with people from first-line help-desk staff to senior sys admins to management and also from all different expertise. This gives the opportunity to help everybody get the most out of the products and solutions, and very often, to help in fixing problems that SCOM is seeing.

In 2012, I received the Microsoft Most Valuable Professional (MVP) award for System Center Cloud and Datacenter Management and continue to have earned it until today, including one Azure MVP as well in 2024. I am very grateful for that and the close contacts I have with Microsoft product teams and other MVPs from around the world.
