Preface
Microsoft Azure is one of the most popular cloud computing platforms that are available publicly. As more and more companies decide to migrate their on-premises workloads and modernize them, expertise in at least one cloud vendor becomes critical when planning your next career steps.
The goal of this book is to help you to understand how Microsoft Azure works and what can be achieved when choosing cloud products over a traditional model of hosting. It focuses on presenting managed services such as Azure App Service, Azure SQL Database, and Azure Container Registry, addressing the current direction of modern architectures and the plans of many companies.
