Microsoft’s Ignite conference kicks off next week and here is what you should be looking for at the big event.

Aidan Finn explains how you can use Alerts in Microsoft Azure to monitor the performance of Azure virtual machines and create alerts or trigger actions when performance breaches pre-defined thresholds.

Microsoft recently launched a limited public preview of Archive Storage and Blob-Level Tiering in Azure storage accounts. What does this mean for Azure customers?

Aidan Finn shows you how to use Azure virtual machine performance threshold alerts to trigger email alerts or start automated-response actions.

Aidan Finn teaches how to capture packets from the NICs of Azure virtual machines using Network Watcher and inspect Azure network traffic at the packet level using Wireshark.

Aidan Finn demonstrates how you can use Azure’s Network Watcher to check if one Azure virtual machine can talk to another.

Aidan Finn discusses how you can achieve better networking performance with Azure virtual machines by using a feature called Accelerated Networking.

Aidan Finn explains how all actions in Azure are recorded, can be archived for long term retention, and searched.

Aidan Finn explains how JIT access to Azure virtual machines enables you to further secure virtual network deployments and enable on-demand access to the machines.

Aidan Finn argues why knowledge of how infrastructure works is still as important as ever.
