This session aims to enhance your comprehension of the principles and practices necessary to fully realize the potential of cloud computing. The cloud offers numerous advantages, including pay-per-use, business agility, resiliency with geo fail-over, self-healing, and improved security. However, it is often challenging for application teams to meet these responsibilities. This session will put you on the path to achieving more of that potential.

We will cover aspects of architecting for the cloud and the approach to solutions that embrace cloud excellence! Architectural design principles covered include high availability, fault tolerance, disaster recovery, observability, and security. We will look at external communication, scaling strategies, caching strategies, security best practices, microservices architecture, message brokers, and observability and monitoring. The examples given will be using a range of services native to the Azure Platform. By the end of this session, you will have a broader understanding of advanced Azure architecture and design principles that fulfil the promises of cloud computing.

This session is presented by an Architect who has been with the Cloud since the dawn of the cloud and who has helped his customers make their cloud better for countless teams and applications.
