Event: Video: Slide Decks: from first 2 days of Six Steps to Azure

  • Article

Six Steps to Windows Azure launched last week with over 160 attendees over the 2 days at our London kick off events which were run in partnership with the UK Windows Azure User Group.  Our first event Azure in the Real World showcased some fantastic real life solutions. Our second day focused on Advanced Topics in Windows Azure which included Windows Azure Media Services and Web Services.  Overall the feedback has been fantastic.(#sixstepsazure) The audience was a real mix of those who have just started with Windows Azure to those considering it in the coming year.
