Why this matters

Azure is one of the largest and most powerful cloud computing platforms with over 300 services. As more and more data science moves to the cloud, learning to use Azure is fast becoming an essential skillset.

In this webinar you'll learn about cloud concepts, essential services, and effective management. The session will cover deployment models (public, private, hybrid) and their implications, service models (IaaS, PaaS, SaaS) and when to use each.

You'll also get an overview of the services relevant to data professionals like compute resources (virtual machines, containers), networking components (virtual networks, load balancers), storage options (blobs, queues, tables, files), and databases (Azure SQL Database, Cosmos DB).

Finally, you'll learn how to secure your Azure environment using identity and access management, monitor resources effectively, implement cost management strategies, and comply with regulatory requirements.
