Overview of this book

This Learning Path helps you understand microservices architecture and leverage various services of Microsoft Azure Service Fabric to build, deploy, and maintain highly scalable enterprise-grade applications. You will learn to select an appropriate Azure backend structure for your solutions and work with its toolkit and managed apps to share your solutions with its service catalog. As you progress through the Learning Path, you will study Azure Cloud Services, Azure-managed Kubernetes, and Azure Container Services deployment techniques. To apply all that you’ve understood, you will build an end-to-end Azure system in scalable, decoupled tiers for an industrial bakery with three business domains. Toward the end of this Learning Path, you will build another scalable architecture using Azure Service Bus topics to send orders between decoupled business domains with scalable worker roles processing these orders. By the end of this Learning Path, you will be comfortable in using development, deployment, and maintenance processes to build robust cloud solutions on Azure. This Learning Path includes content from the following Packt products: • Learn Microsoft Azure by Mohamed Wali • Implementing Azure Solutions - Second Edition by Florian Klaffenbach, Oliver Michalski, Markus Klein • Microservices with Azure by Namit Tanasseri and Rahul Rai

Pricing


The billing for Azure Storage usage depends on the used storage account. Also, storage costs are based on these determinants:

  • Location: This describes the geographical region in which the account is based.
  • Storage capacity: This refers to how much of the storage account is used to store data.
  • Account type: Based on the usage of either the general-purpose storage account or the Blob storage account; the account type affects the billing. When using a Blob storage account, the access tier also defines the billing model for the account.
  • Storage transactions: Transactions are all read and write operations to Azure Storage.
  • Replication scheme: This describes the number of copies of your data and where they are stored.
  • Data egress: This is the data that is transported out of an Azure region. This usually happens when the data is obtained by an application that is located in another region or in an on-premises location. If data egresses from Azure, charges apply.
