Azure Technical briefings out about in the UK

 Our technical team have been out and about across the UK meeting with software companies, talking about Azure and the journey to cloud. The briefings we have run have explored the various aspects of the journey that many people have encountered in their to move to the cloud:

- Lift and shift to get onto Azure quickly and easily, using virtual machines and our Infrastructure as a Service offering

- Make small changes to reduce running costs and enhance scalability and availability using our Platform as a Service capabilities

- Undertake some elements of redesign to start harnessing the power of serverless computing via Azure Functions, Logic Apps and Power BI

- Explore the next wave of technology innovation such as Machine Learning, AI and Bots.

In the sessions we explore architectural design and best practices. You can find the slides here.
