ICYMI (In case you missed it); two weeks in the past was Microsoft’s Construct occasion! The yearly occasion is an opportunity for builders to be taught new issues which can be happening in know-how. The explanation I really like listening to most of these occasions is as a result of it will get you excited in regards to the happenings within the trade.

Azure Arc means that you can deploy anyplace with out the necessity to should be taught Kubernetes and have a bunch of overhead. The combination with Github Actions and different workflows goes to be a time saver forsure!
I extremely suggest watching this session if in case you have the time!
