RDN Dev Day: Windows Azure

Expert advice and demonstrations to help you get started with Windows Azure.

The rationale to consider moving applications to “the Cloud” are clear: infinite scalability, reduced infrastructure and management costs, and an opportunity to focus on what you do best; develop great software. But developing for the cloud requires much more than just pointing your code at Azure.

Come join Readify Senior Consultant and Microsoft MVP (Windows Azure), Steven Nagy, as we explore the practicalities of the Microsoft Windows Azure Platform from the ground up. We identify real-world best practices in developing highly scalable cloud applications, and get our hands dirty cutting code designed to run on infinite computing resources. This presentation-lab style day-long session is what you need to get a solid grounding in the capabilities of Azure. You’ll leave eager and prepared to start your first application in the cloud.
