A talk (Spanish) on Azure Landing Zones and Enterprise-scale Architecture

By default Cloud Shell sessions run inside a container inside a Microsoft network separate from any resources you may have deployed in Azure.

Azure Functions provides you with an event-driven programming model and Dapr a set of essential cloud-native building blocks that you can use together to create great solutions. Joins Carlos and create a solution that reads tweets, stores them in a database, access secrets, uses pub/sub between functions and much more!
