Discover the essentials for success when developing and maintaining cloud-based solutions on Azure

With the prevalence of cloud technologies and DevOps ways of working, the industry demands developers who can build cloud solutions and monitor them throughout their lifecycle. Becoming a Microsoft certified Azure developer can differentiate developers from the competition, but with such a plethora of information available, it can be difficult to structure learning in an effective way to obtain certification.

This book covers the following exciting features:

• Develop Azure compute solutions
• Discover tips and tricks from Azure experts for interactive learning
• Use Cosmos DB storage and blob storage for developing solutions
• Develop secure cloud solutions for Azure
• Use optimization, monitoring, and troubleshooting for Azure solutions
• Develop Azure solutions connected to third-party services

All of the code is organized into folders. For example, Chapter02.

A block of code is set as follows:

using Microsoft.Identity.Client;
const string _clientId = "<app/client ID>";
const string _tenantId = "<tenant ID>";
var app = PublicClientApplicationBuilder

When we wish to draw your attention to a particular part of a code block, the relevant lines or items are set in bold:

var app = PublicClientApplicationBuilder
    .Create(_clientId)
    .WithAuthority(AzureCloudInstance.AzurePublic, _tenantId)
    .WithRedirectUri("http://localhost")
    .Build();

Any command-line input or output is written as follows:

$ dotnet new console -n "<app name>"
