These days it's extremely hard for the non-professional traders to be profitable. Large financial organizations invest millions in data centers and computer algorithms that trades on the market and reacts to changes within milliseconds. However to be profitable for an individual trader no need to be the best trader on the market. It' is good enough to be better than average. Being an IT pro I've noticed that most of the non-professional traders are not aware of the possibilities that competing software giants like Amazon, Google, Microsoft give away to extremely low prices or even for FREE. Cloud computing services is one of them. Sure thing Microsoft Azure wasn't developed for non-professional traders in mind. Azure is complex, it consists of hundreds of services but doesn't be scared we need just a few of them and we are going to use just a small set of those features that we benefit. In this course, I will provide you with simple, step-by-step instructions and you really can apply them just after the lecture. Various tips & tricks will save you time. Don't miss the great opportunity that free tier from Microsoft Azure gives you away today. Every video-lesson has Q&A section and I will be more than happy to help you out if you have difficulties in understanding the lesson or applying it in your account. Looking forward to seeing you as the student!

In the past decade, cloud computing has been gaining popularity at a tremendous rate. Some cloud providers are experiencing a growth rate of 50% year over year – which is just astounding. And the reason for this growth is obvious – cloud computing enables ubiquitous, convenient, on-demand access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources which can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal effort. Microsoft Azure is a cloud computing platform that offers a broad set of global compute, storage, database, analytics, application, and deployment services that help organizations move faster, lower IT costs, and scale applications. The Azure Resource Manager , provided by Microsoft Azure , is a versatile service that simplifies how you manage your cloud resources. The Azure Resource Manager can help you define, build and maintain your application in a consistent manner. Within the context of Azure Stack, the Azure Resource Manager is the management layer (API) where you connect to for deploying resources. With Azure Resource Manager ( ARM ) you can deploy, delete, or update all resources for your solution in a single and coordinated operation by using templates. The templates are in the form of JSON format, and these templates can be used for deployment in different environments such as staging, testing, and production. The Resource Manager helps in providing auditing, security, and tagging features to help you manage your resources post-deployment. Although we have the Azure portal for managing the resources but in cases where you need to maintain and deploy multiple servers, in complex configurations - it might get a cumbersome to handle these deployment and configuration activities via the point and click portal. Moreover remembering every resource category and their respective cost evaluation can become a mammoth task. As companies look forward to automating deployment, scaling, and operations of cloud applications in the Azure cloud (across clusters of hosts), there is a need for providing automated deployment solutions for the cloud infrastructure. With Azure ARM Templates , you can define your infrastructure environment in simple JSON file template. These file templates can be versioned, validated and checked into your source control systems. This is what we call Infrastructure-as-code ( IaC ). Do you know what it takes to design and deploy sophisticated cloud applications and manage your complex infrastructure via the use of ARM templates ? How does one go about automating the configuration of the cloud resources in the Azure cloud environment? How to make the deployment process consistent and repeatable? How to scale the infrastructure with a simple push of a button or a simple command? These are some of the fundamental problems Cloud and DevOps engineers struggle with on a daily basis. This course teaches you how to design, deploy, configure and manage your Azure cloud resources with Azure ARM Templates . The course will start with an introduction to the Azure ARM templates and their core features. Then we will dive deeper into designing and deploying our cloud resources with the use of these templates. If you’re serious about building scalable, flexible and robust Azure ARM Templates for deploying your cloud infrastructure, then this course is for you. These DevOps and Cloud Computing skills are in high demand, but there’s no easy way to acquire this knowledge. Rather than rely on hit and trial method, this course will provide you with all the information you need to get started with your Azure cloud projects. Startups and technology companies pay big bucks for experience and skills in these technologies. They demand DevOps and cloud engineers to automate the deployment of their cloud resources  -  and in turn, you can demand top dollar for your abilities. Do you want the skills and be highly sought after? Do you want your career to touch cloud 9? Did you answer, “Absolutely” to that question? If so, then our new training program "Azure Masterclass: Manage your Azure Cloud with ARM Templates" is for you. We have been in the software industry for more than two decades. We’ve been part of many prestigious projects and startups. Over this span, we have gained great insight into what makes for flexible, scalable and robust software and IT solutions. We are passionate about sharing all our collective knowledge with YOU !! In this course, “ Azure Masterclass: Manage your Azure Cloud with ARM Templates” , you will get an in-depth look at how to utilize Azure ARM Templates for designing and deploying your Azure cloud resources in a consistent and repeatable manner.

Course Introduction Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 (ADLS) is a cloud-based repository for both structured and unstructured data. For example, you could use it to store everything from documents to images to social media streams. The most effective way to do big data processing on Azure is to store your data in ADLS and then process it using Spark (which is essentially a faster version of Hadoop) on Azure Databricks. In this course, you will follow hands-on examples to import data into ADLS and then securely access it and analyze it using Azure Databricks and Azure HDInsight. You will also learn how to monitor and optimize your Data Lake Storage.
