Microsoft Azure for .NET Developers - Cloud Patterns and Architecture
Building applications in the cloud gives you a range of abilities to build scalable, resilient, and highly available applications. This course presents you with design patterns and systems architecture for applications in Microsoft Azure.
What you'll learn
Building applications in the cloud gives you the ability to write highly available, highly scalable applications, and services that are resistant to failure. In this course, Microsoft Azure for .NET Developers - Cloud Patterns and Architecture, you'll learn a different architectural approach to building cloud applications, and see how various Windows Azure services and resources fit into those architectures. First, you'll explore how to use specific Azure resources to add redundancy, fail-over, and load balancing to a system. Next, you'll discover how to utilize the Azure Content Delivery Network. Finally, you'll delve into learning how to create an API gateway. By the end of the course, you'll have the patterns and architectural knowledge you need to build scalable, resilient cloud services and applications.
