During this talk, we will discuss how you can easily provision and manage a Dev-Test environment with MS Azure, move existing environments into the cloud for testing with relative ease, less complexity and comparatively small cost. All of this will help you meet the needs of your teams faster and manage Dev-Test environments with more visibility and control. Some of the topics covered:
• An introduction to the cloud using Microsoft Azure functionality
• How Azure can accelerate traditional software development and testing
• Azure Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) vs Platform as a Service (PaaS)
• How to quickly provision development and test environments with Azure Dev-Test Labs
• Minimize resource usage and costs with quotas and policies
• Set automated start-ups/shutdowns to minimize costs
• Create Windows and Linux environments with pre-built fully patched VM image templates
