Three trends in distributed computing are converging. First, the number of places where applications can run has grown to include the cloud, public and private edges, and on-device. Second, distributed applications increasingly span these compute targets simultaneously, with placement decisions based on cost, location, and performance requiring continuous evaluation. Third, the networks connecting these compute targets are increasingly programmable, allowing applications to query and dynamically configure network conditions and behavior via APIs. Azure offers excellent support for deploying and managing applications across the full diversity of today’s compute targets. We have a limited, private preview program for Azure Programmable Connectivity (APC) to support network-aware applications that span compute targets and program the networks in between. Who should attend? • Developers who want to enhance the connectivity of their applications and make it more reliable, efficient and secure • Developers who recognize that network connectivity is critical to the success of their applications, and want to learn how to leverage network programmability to achieve their goals • Developers who want to enhance the user experience of your application by optimizing network performance and reducing latency • Developers who are interested in learning about Network APIs What will I learn? Overall, attendees will gain a deeper understanding of the benefits of network programmability and how it can be used to enhance application connectivity, performance, and security, as well as how to apply to the private preview program for Azure Programmable Connectivity to get hands-on experience with building network-aware applications.
