Microsoft Azure provides a collection of services that you can use as building blocks for your cloud applications.
Lessons
Lab : Exploring the Azure Portal
After completing this module, you will be able to:
Although many Microsoft Azure services use virtual machines, sometimes your application might have a unique need where it requires a virtual machine that is completely unmanaged. Azure provides networking, backup, and virtualisation services as part of its Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) offering.
Lessons
Lab : Creating an Azure Virtual Machine for Development and Testing
After completing this module, you will be able to:
This module provides an overview of the Azure Web Apps service.
Lessons
Lab : Creating an ASP.NET Web App by Using Azure Web Apps
After completing this module, you will be able to:
Dynamic web applications must store the data that is being managed and manipulated by end users. ASP.NET technologies such as ADO.NET and Entity Framework provide a way for accessing data in SQL Server. In the cloud, the Microsoft Azure platform provides a database as a service offering that allows developers to use SQL in the same way as they would in an on-premises location.
Lessons
Lab : Storing Event Data in Azure SQL Databases
After completing this module, you will be able to:
As a developer, you should keep in mind certain considerations while designing applications for the cloud. Although there are many platform improvements available in the ASP.NET ecosystem, you need to rethink the way you design your applications and the patterns that are used, with respect to the scalability and reliability metrics present for the cloud applications.
Lessons
After completing this module, you will be able to:
Dynamic web applications will invariably need to store the data that is being managed and manipulated by users. ASP.NET has always relied on technologies like ADO.NET and Entity Framework to access data from Microsoft SQL Server. For the cloud, the Microsoft Azure platform provides a SQL as a Service that allows developers to use SQL data and queries in the same manner as they would use in an on-premises implementation.
Lessons
Lab : Storing Event Registration Data in Azure Storage Tables
After completing this module, you will be able to:
When you want to scale to different cloud instances, storing files to a local disk becomes a difficult process to maintain and eventually an unreliable method of storage.

Lessons
Lab : Storing Generated Documents in Azure Storage Blobs
After completing this module, you will be able to:
Module 8: Designing a Communication Strategy by Using Queues and Service Bus

Lessons
Lab : Using Queues and Service Bus to Manage Communication Between Web Applications in Azure
After completing this module, you will be able to:
Although you can manage most of the Azure services by using both of the Azure portals or Microsoft Visual Studio 2013, you can use scripting to completely automate the management of the same resources.
