Security is always number 1 or 2 in any survey on the fears of cloud computing. Networking in The Cloud is very different to traditional physical networking … but in some ways it is quite similar. The goals of this workshop are:

• To teach you the fundamentals, the theory, of how Azure networking functions so you can understand the practical design and application
• Do hands-on deployments of secure networks

As a result, this workshop takes you all the way back to the basics of Azure networking so you really understand the “wiring” of a secure network in the cloud. Only with that understanding do you understand that small is big. The topics covered in this class will secure small/mid businesses, platform deployments that require regulatory compliance, and large enterprises:

• The Microsoft global network
• Availability & SLA
• Virtual network basics
• Virtual network adapters
• Peering
• Service endpoints
• Public IP Addresses
• VNet gateways: VPN & ExpressRoute
• Network Security Groups
• Application Firewall
• Route Tables
• Third Party Firewalls
• Azure Firewall
• Architectures

Attendees will require an Azure subscription capable of deploying multiple 4 x single-core virtual machines, 1 x Azure Firewall, 1 x Web Application Gateway, and 1 x per GB Log Analytics Workspace for 1 day.
