Microsoft Azure in Action teaches you to put the premier cloud computing service to work building real apps and services. Its lighthearted tone keeps dry technical details from becoming boring. Aimed at developers who are familiar with some cloud basics, this straight-to-the-point guide explains both the how and the why of each Azure service.

Author and Azure expert Lars Klint guides you from the fundamentals of Azure through to DevOps, security, performance enhancement, and architecture decisions. Throughout, you’ll tinker with example applications and hands-on serverless tasks, including a useful photo resizing tool. By the time you’re done, you’ll be ready to untether yourself from on-prem servers and make the leap to the Azure cloud!
