Introduction to Microsoft Azure
In this session we are going to discuss several Microsoft Azure services that may be interesting for students, developer and researchers. We will start with some PaaS services that allow you to build Web Applications and Internet of Things solutions. In the first demo you will be able to see how to deploy a basic web site even without any knowledge in Azure. In the second demo we will cover IoT Hub, Stream Analytic and Power BI services. The second important topic in the presentation is Big Data. Thanks to Azure you can use lots of Big Data services like HDInsight, Data Lake and Azure Date Lake Analytics. We will discuss all of them. Right after the Big Data topic we will discuss Containers that are very popular not just in development environments but also for many tasks in production environments. You will be able to see, how to deploy containers based on Docker service. Of course, we cannot miss Azure Machine Learning. You will be able to see tools and components that you can use in order to train you ML model and publish it as a web service in order to make it available to all other services. If time permits, we will discuss Microsoft Cognitive Services and Visual Studio Team Services.
