Deploying your Website in Azure (IaaS)
Anthony Budd, EPS Cloud

What is infrastructure-as-code, anyway? Deploying complex workloads through infrastructure definition documents is now built right into Azure with Azure Resource Manager (ARM). In this session, we’ll walk you through the deployment of a network, virtual machines and a load balancer to make the environment highly available. We’ll also review the anatomy of an infrastructure template so you can roll-your-own in the future.
