Whether you\u2019re thinking about making the move to Microsoft Azure, or if you\u2019re just starting out, there\u2019s a lot to learn. I\u2019d like to tell you the best way to start learning Azure. And, no, it\u2019s not by reading a book or watching a YouTube video.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The best way is to start doing it!<\/strong> That\u2019s right, get in there and give it a try. Choose a real project, something small, maybe an application you have on-premise and move it to the cloud. Or possibly write a small app and deploy it in Azure.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t assume it\u2019s going to take you tons of time to do this. It\u2019s very fast and straightforward to spin up to Azure SQL databases, a Cosmo DB instance or to put something in a container.<\/p>\n

Put some thought into what you want to try, then go to <\/span>docs.microsoft.com<\/a>. Here you\u2019ll find documentation pages and tutorials<\/span> to view for your first workload, as well as script examples to take advantage of.<\/p>\n

Another helpful tip, do this trial move with someone else on your team<\/strong>. Maybe you\u2019re a data professional and not as strong on the application side. Then find someone who is and work together, then share this project with the rest of your organization. Chances are, you\u2019ll find that getting your apps into Azure is more straightforward than you think.<\/strong><\/p>\n
