What you'll learn

Managing and deploying compute resources in the cloud can be complex, but it's essential for developing scalable, efficient applications and services. In this course, Azure Compute Fundamentals, you’ll learn to confidently navigate and manage core Azure compute services. First, you'll explore Azure virtual machines (VMs), the most foundational of all Azure compute resources. Next, you'll discover how to deploy VMs and manage compute resources using the Azure portal, Azure CLI, and ARM templates. Then, you'll investigate how to develop and deploy web applications with Azure App Service, a fully managed platform for hosting web applications. Finally, you'll learn how to create serverless applications using Azure Functions, a service that allows you to run code on-demand without managing infrastructure. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of Azure compute services needed to manage your cloud resources effectively.

Oddly enough, theater - or more exactly, performance art. After coming to NY to pursue a career as a theater director, I started doing solo work to better understand acting. At the time, I belonged to a group that had received an NEA grant and I used my money to buy a personal computer that I then performed with, on stage. That led me down the rabbit hole of technology and before I knew it, I was writing books on web design - which was quickly followed by building on-line courses as a part-time, and later, full-time content author for ACG and Pluralsight.
