Powered by Microsoft Azure

2. Developer & Architect
I need to build an a
cloud application,
where do I start?
I need to design a
solution using Azure
but there are so many
features?
One of my dev teams
have built a great
solution on Azure but I
need to understand
these technologies
better
I need a quick way to
get my skills up to
speed with Microsoft
Azure

3. IT Pro & IT Operations
We need to learn how
to manage cloud
resources but we have
little experience of the
cloud
We are looking at
DevOps opportunities,
can Azure help?
I am going to be asked
to support a cloud
application. Where do
I start?Are there ways Azure
could help us offer a
better service to our
customers?

4. Learning Path
Deep Dive Learning Resources
Successful Projects
How do I get
over this first
learning hurdle?
Embracing the Cloud

8. After the course
Yes that’s a great cloud
use case and we feel
comfortable doing it
If we use a cloud
development environment
it would support us scaling
the team up and down
easily
I wonder if there are
more places we can
secure our applications
with Azure Active
Directory
We can increase our
agility because we
know where Azure can
help us
We have a good
understanding of what
the cloud offers and
feel comfortable
learning more about it

9. Feedback
Friday was excellent – well done
Rob Bowman - BizTalkers
The Zero to Cloud in 1 Day course has provided the team with a solid foundation
understanding of the cloud, and where it can be most effectively used to help
bring solutions to life. Colleagues completed the course with a clear vision of how
they can begin working with Microsoft Azure technologies, and have already begun
developing and deploying cloud based solutions as a team
Oliver Davy – Architecture Manager @ Northumbria University
Completed "Zero To Cloud in 1 Day" with
#theazurecoach - a day well spent and highly
recommended. @michael_stephen was
excellent as usual.

I did this in Leeds last week; 'Zero to Cloud' is a hands-on course
where we went from setting up a dev vm, through to building
and deploying a web-app, and beyond. As we progressed, we set up
auto build and deploy, as well as multi-factor authentication. To cover
all this in a day was good, but throughout Mike injected real-world
use cases and hard-won 'gotchas'. The course works for a range of IT pros,
and is not limited to the devs. If you or your team want to utilise the
Cloud, then this course will kick-start that process.
