Virtual Event

2-Day Training Seminar
October 15 - 16, 2020
9:00AM – 5:00PM CDT
Level: Intermediate

It's 2020. How's your DevOps transformation? What about getting rid of all your servers and VMs and moving to serverless computing? Well if you're not there yet, come to this workshop where you'll learn about the why and how of serverless computing and DevOps in the Microsoft Azure cloud.

Starting from nothing to something, Brian will show you how to "File | New" your serverless systems by showing you how to create an Azure Functions environment that is correctly built, tested, deployed, managed, and monitored using the Azure Platform and GitHub.

First, you'll learn how to create your inner workflow as a single developer and get an Azure Functions "app" working with queues, storage, and data persistence. This will cover the latest version of Visual Studio 2019 and Visual Studio Code.

Next, you'll see how using GitHub's version control and issue management features to manage assets and work. You'll then see how to enable CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions as well as how to share code using GitHub Package Registry.

Finally, we'll move to operations side and integrate Azure Monitor's Logs, Metrics, Insights and various alerting tools. By the end of the workshop you'll know how to go back to your organization and start both your serverless computing and DevOps transformations.

Products covered include:

  • Azure App Service
  • Azure Functions
  • Azure Storage
  • Azure Service Bus
  • Azure Cosmos DB
  • Azure Monitor
  • GitHub (repos, Issues, Actions, and Package Registry)

You will learn:

  • What Serverless is as a concept and in practice using Azure Functions
  • What DevOps is and how you can apply it in your organization with good practices and tools
  • How to piece together a rich set of Azure services to build a modern, Serverless solution
