Azure For Starters (eBook, ePUB)

I will give a background on why I wrote this book, while developing an IT auto-mation system in Azure platform, we struggled day in and day out to make use of Azure services, the project slipped by 8 weeks. Even though Azure claims to have all information online, we found them not enough to develop and execute our project on time. I have now captured all my learning in simple snapshot and working codes. Most of the open source code does not work without modification, we struggled to config-ure and make our code work in azure application platform. Developer/Manager will immediately know, what all azure services need to be procured for his/her project, how to configure and make use of each Azure services, they will also have access to working code, this will easily save 6-8 weeks of time for each project. This book will provide a real life account of my work in Azure platform for 6 months. In this book, firstly We will learn main services provided by "Azure plat-form" and develop a website to authenticate user, upload a large set of dummy in-voices into "Azure Blobs" and validate PAN for each invoice using "Apache Spark" in-stalled in "Azure Databricks" platform. We will also use "Azure Redis Cache" service for caching data. PAN will be validated using drools rules engine. The invoice con-tent will be stored in "Azure Cosmos DB". Secondly we will learn how to scrape con-tent and generate RSS feeds via azure function and display it in the website. Thirdly we will learn "Azure Devops".
