Azure Services Every Developer Needs to Know

Azure is a powerful platform with many amazing services, but it can also be hard to know which ones you need to know about when you are first getting started with cloud development. What can you do when you looking to modernize an existing ASP.NET application? What data services are the most applicable to .NET development? How can you get started with serverless? In this session, Chad will cover how to get started within cloud development in Azure using common services that most .NET applications running in the cloud will benefit from using.
