The Azure Application Development team welcomes you to Microsoft Build 2021!

Microsoft Azure provides a broad range of services that enable developers to build, deploy and scale their apps even faster. Our end-to-end platform helps developers focus on apps, not infrastructure and our latest innovations enable developers to build applications with best-in-class developer tools, modernize existing apps as well as build cloud native applications.

Discover the latest news in Azure application development at Microsoft Build 2021 and explore how Microsoft’s developer toolkit and platform allows you to build on your terms and run your applications your way.

The online event will be kicking off on the morning of May 25^th, at 8.30 AM in the Pacific Time Zone.  The event programming will include a keynote, live segments, breakouts, Ask the Experts, Product Roundtables, Learn Lives, Intro to Technical Skills sessions, and more.
