In this series, we are going to learn Azure with ASP.NET Core. Today, for most organizations, Cloud Computing is the preferred model for addressing their infrastructure and software needs. It provides resources like storage and computing power as and when required by the users. Additionally, these resources are maintained in large data centers that are distributed across multiple locations and made available to end-users over the Internet.
Microsoft Azure is a major cloud computing service available in the market today. Using Azure we can build, deploy, and manage applications and services. Moreover, it supports many different programming languages, tools, and frameworks. It has excellent support for integration with applications developed using ASP.NET Core and we are going to focus on that area.
