Architectural Patterns for Azure Stack Solutions from Pluralsight

Azure Stack represents a solid extension to the Microsoft Azure public cloud. In this course, you will learn how to integrate Azure Stack into your hybrid cloud environment; saving your organization development costs and management overhead.

Microsoft offers an unrivaled integration of on-premises assets with Azure Stack and Azure Cloud in one unified solution, eliminating the need to manage multiple point solutions and a mix of cloud providers. Azure and Azure Stack provides a scalable solution utilizing the advantages of both environments. In this course, Architectural Patterns for Microsoft Azure Stack Solutions, you’ll learn various design patterns to integrate Azure Stack into your existing Azure cloud applications and services. First, you will examine seven use cases for Azure Stack. Next, you will learn how to design a hybrid cloud architecture to meet your security, performance, and availability requirements. Finally, you will familiarize, or re-familiarize yourself, with the Azure services that are shared between Azure cloud and Azure Stack. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have a foundational knowledge of Azure hybrid cloud architecture with Azure Stack, and can provide real value to your organization's Azure development, administration, and architecture staff.
