Microsoft Azure Cloud

Microsoft Azure Cloud

Microsoft Azure is a cloud computing service created by Microsoft for building, testing, deploying, and managing applications and services through a global network of Microsoft-managed data centers. It provides software as a service (SaaS), platform as a service and infrastructure as a service and supports many different programming languages, tools and frameworks, including both Microsoft-specific and third-party software and systems.

The Windows Azure training Course teaches .NET developers to build and deploy applications on Microsoft’s Cloud Computing platform. The training course is designed to provide a comprehensive overview on using the management portal of Windows Azure and its features. Primary goal behind this training is to teach students how to use various services provided by Windows Azure.
IT industry is going through a quiet wave of innovation and its being powered by this phenomenon which is referred to as the cloud. Cloud allows testing business ideas very quickly for very little money. Every start up, even divisions within huge companies that have an idea for something new are using cloud extensively. The verdict is out more and more companies and startups are increasingly adopting cloud in its varied avatar. Cloud is    disrupting the traditional way of doing business and more and more companies are adopting it, as not adopting may become an existential threat. This leaves you and me (as knowledge workers) only one option. That option is to prepare for the cloud invasion of the Industry. Also most of the legacy (old) software and systems are working on Microsoft and hence Microsoft Azure cloud is a good cloud skill to develop.
