Azure for Developers

In the course Azure for Developers from SpiralTrain participants learn to use Microsoft Azure for the development of Cloud Applications and Services.

Azure Intro

The course Azure for Developers starts with an overview of the services and Availability Zones that the Azure Cloud Platform has to offer. The difference between Azure PAAS (Platform as a Service) and Azure IAAS (Infrastructure as a Service) is also discussed.

App Services

Next App Services and how Azure can be used to host Applications and in particular Web Applications will be treated. Attention is also paid to the support of various Development Environments such as for ASP.NET, Node JS and Python.

Data Access

The various forms of storage that Azure has to offer are also on the program of the course. Blob Storage and File Storage are discussed. And also accessing relational and NoSQL databases from Azure is covered.

VMs and Containers

Azure also supports deployment of Virtual Machines that can be provisioned entirely as desired. Both Windows and Linux VM's are possible. And containers based on Docker Images are also supported in Azure.

Azure Functions

Next attention is paid to how Azure supports serverless computing with Azure Functions. Serverless computing does use servers, but they run invisibly in the cloud. Functions scenarios, function pipelines and function chaining are treated.

Virtual Networks

Finally attention is paid to the Azure Network Service and setting up Virtual Networks. Inbound and outbound rules are discussed and load balancing and port forwarding are covered.

Audience Course Azure for Developers

The Course Azure for Developers is intended for developers who want to use Microsoft Azure to create and deploy cloud applications.

Prerequisites Course Azure for Developers

Experience in a modern programming language such as C#, Java, Python or PHP is required to participate in this course.

Realization Training Azure for Developers
