Implementing Azure: Putting Modern DevOps to Use: Transform your software deployment process with Microsoft Azure

Explore powerful Azure DevOps solutions to develop and deploy your software faster and more efficiently.

Key Features

• Build modern microservice-based systems with Azure architecture
• Learn to deploy and manage cloud services and virtual machines
• Configure clusters with Azure Service Fabric for deployment

Book Description

This Learning Path helps you understand microservices architecture and leverage various services of Microsoft Azure Service Fabric to build, deploy, and maintain highly scalable enterprise-grade applications. You will learn to select an appropriate Azure backend structure for your solutions and work with its toolkit and managed apps to share your solutions with its service catalog. As you progress through the Learning Path, you will study Azure Cloud Services, Azure-managed Kubernetes, and Azure Container Services deployment techniques. To apply all that you've understood, you will build an end-to-end Azure system in scalable, decoupled tiers for an industrial bakery with three business domains. Toward the end of this Learning Path, you will build another scalable architecture using Azure Service Bus topics to send orders between decoupled business domains with scalable worker roles processing these orders.

By the end of this Learning Path, you will be comfortable in using development, deployment, and maintenance processes to build robust cloud solutions on Azure.
