Azure Landing Zones: Modern Architecture for a Modern Datacenter
Monday May 5, 2025 10:00am - 11:45am CDT
Description:
We've had datacenters for years. On-Premise, Co-located, or leased; It was only a matter of where the equipment was physically located. We still had the same equipment, connected with the same cables, in the same racks, and managed by the same teams. But what about the cloud? It's just another 'location' right? While many of the workloads haven't changed, the way we deploy, connect, and manage those workloads couldn't be any more different. Enter 'Landing Zones'. The modern approach to workload deployment, management, and governance.


What you will learn:
  • Understand what Azure Landing Zones are.
  • Design workloads to effectively leverage landing zones.
  • Migrate existing workloads to a landing zone design.
  • Consider cost, security, and governance for landing zones.
