Proactively design, deploy & monitor resilient Azure workloads
Do you want to know how to get resilient and stay resilient? Explore the architectural features needed to uphold stringent uptime requirements for critical deployments. Learn how to design resiliency into workloads and environments by implementing Azure landing zones and infrastructure-as-code modules. We will demo native bicep and Azure Verified Modules while explaining the scenarios in which you need those. We'll also show how to use the Azure Proactive Resiliency Library, Azure Advisor and Azure Monitor baseline alerts to minimize outage impacts and increase productivity. This session is part of Tech Accelerator: Mastering Azure and AI adoption. View the full agenda for more great sessions and insights.Microsoft Data and Analytics Forum

Join our upcoming webcast to hear about best practices from our engineering experts – including how to prevent impact from incidents by building resilient applications, and how to protect your cloud environments. You will also have access to live Q&A in the side panel, to get your incident readiness questions answered by our subject matter experts. Two session options, same content presented, both with Live Q&A available: Since building reliable and secure applications on Azure is a shared responsibility, join us to learn from live demonstrations that will empower you to implement our incident readiness recommendations. We will help you understand how to prevent the impact of incidents, protect your environment, and remain informed throughout incident lifecycles. Join us to get familiar with: Our Power Platform team’s journey to identify, assess, and improve the resilience of their own Azure services – which power critical customer-facing workloads – using Availability Zones How to assess whether the resources that support your mission-critical services are sufficiently zone-resilient, using Azure Advisor recommendations and workbooks Balancing competing priorities as you invest in resilience and security, with an eye on cost optimization using best practices from the Azure Well-Architected Framework Retrofitting your existing Virtual Machines and Azure Disks, for zone resiliency and redundancy, respectively – to minimize and avoid impact from common incident types Understand and control who can access your resources – including using Microsoft-managed Conditional Access Policies, and recommended actions to raise your security baseline This approach will bring our incident readiness guidance to life, and get you connected with subject matter experts so that you can ask any clarifications or follow up questions during the session.

Register here for session option #2 Wednesday @ 8 - 9 PM PST (Thursday 25 January @ 04:00 UTC). Incident Readiness Resources Prepare for the unexpected. Learn how you can mitigate impact, protect your investment, and stay informed. Microsoft categorizes cloud incidents into three types: service incidents, privacy incidents, and security incidents. A service incident is an event or a series of events that can cause an interruption or degraded experience for customers using one or more of Microsoft's services. These incidents are effectively unplanned downtime – including outages impacting availability, performance degradation impacting users, and problems interfering with service administration/management. Privacy incidents relate to potential unauthorized use or disclosure of customer data. Finally, security incidents in Microsoft's online services refer to confirmed breaches of security resulting in accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure, or access to customer or personal data while being processed by Microsoft. Please review the cloud specific incident readiness sections that covers steps you should take to prepare and protect your environment and what actions you should take or be aware of during an incident.
