Other Key Services for Developers

Learn more about other key Azure services for C# developers.

After we have built a solid foundation in Microsoft Azure as C# developers, it is good to keep learning about other services.

Here are five other Microsoft Azure services that would be beneficial for C# developers to learn about:

  1. Azure logic apps: This cloud-based service provides solutions to help you automate workflows without writing code. Azure Logic Apps is important for developers because it enables efficient and effective process automation, reducing manual intervention and the potential for errors. It connects to various other services and data sources, making integration tasks much easier.

  2. Azure Cosmos DB: It’s a globally distributed, multi-model database service designed for scalable and high-performance modern applications. Cosmos DB is critical for developers because it simplifies the delivery of high-speed and highly available applications that span geographies. It supports multiple data models and APIs for accessing data.

  3. Azure DevOps services: This complete DevOps toolchain for developing and deploying software is integral for developers. It includes services like Azure Boards, Azure Repos, and Azure Pipelines. Azure DevOps enhances team collaboration, streamlines the development process, and automates deployment, thus ensuring faster, more reliable, and more frequent releases.

  4. Azure Active Directory (Azure AD): Azure AD is Microsoft’s cloud-based identity and access management service. This service is crucial for developers as it secures and manages the identities of the users interacting with the apps. It helps build a more secure environment for user identities and access management.

  5. Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS): AKS is a managed container orchestration service provided by Azure. AKS is critical for developers as it simplifies containerized applications’ deployment, scaling, and operations. It helps to manage and orchestrate containers across a fleet of virtual machines.
