FTA Live Sessions

Category Title Description
Application Modernization Infrastructure as Code In this session we will discuss how to create an ARM Template using Bicep and deploy using Azure Pipelines. We will cover key areas such as CI/CD Pipelines and Authoring Tools.
Application Modernization App Service Networking In this session you will learn about the different ways you can secure Azure App Service from a networking perspective. The main focus of the session will be Azure App Service, but you will also be able to apply a lot of the concepts we cover to other Azure PaaS services.
Application Modernization Application Lift and Shift A "lift and shift" approach offers a quick migration path to the cloud. While this is a valid approach, it is also important to understand the trade-offs of migrating applications with minimal code changes, which can also introduce new complexities in infrastructure as well as increased costs in the short term. In this session, we will discuss the pros and cons of lift and shift, as well as recommended best practices for long-term successful applications in the cloud.
Application Modernization PaaS Networking In this session you will learn about the different options available to more closely integrate Platform as a Service into your virtual network, where that requirement exists. The main focus will be the different options available at a high level - the concepts are widely shared between different services.
Application Modernization Azure DevOps Patterns and Practices This session is a technical deep-dive on CI/CD in practice for Applications. Topics include Pipeline Triggers, Securing Credentials, YAML Pipelines as Code template organization, workflow guidance and more.
Application Modernization CI/CD for Applications This session is a technical deep-dive on CI/CD in practice for Applications. Topics include Pipeline Triggers, Securing Credentials, YAML Pipelines as Code template organization, workflow guidance and more.
Application Modernization CI/CD for Infrastructure This session is a technical deep-dive on CI/CD in practice for Infrastructure.

Application Modernization DevSecOps In this 200-level session we will walk you through the practice of DevSecOps. You will learn why it is important to apply a "shift-left" security strategy to your software development lifecycle. You will also learn where to apply which security in your CI/CD stages.

Agenda: (1) How to shift your security focus left. (2) Steps in your development process where security can be built in. (3) Tools that can help you in improving your overall security.

Audience: This session is most useful for application architects wanting to improve their overall security stance, as well as security officers wanting insights in how development processes can be secured from the initial conception of a project all the way to production. This session is also useful for developers wanting to build in security on their developer processes. Some knowledge on overall DevOps practices and automation is nice to have.
Application Modernization Cloud Architecture The way we design solutions in the cloud has a large impact on things like scalability, cost, performance, security and managing overhead.
