Government is rethinking how it approaches software development and use of tooling in its technology programs by using more flexible methods to streamline the process and to improve cybersecurity from the start. Double clicking on a previous DevSecOps meetup, this month’s Azure Government DC Meetup takes us deeper into advances in tooling, thinking around software factories and DevSecOps frameworks, and current DevSecOps implementations....

Work with Azure IoT EdgePart 5 of the Azure training series, Build end-to-end IoT solutionsWith large amounts of data being collected and urgent time responses needed, you’ll want to bring the intelligence to the edge for processing data and only send the important data to the cloud. We’ll take a deep dive on using an IoT Edge device as a gateway, and you’ll learn the different scenarios where an IoT Edge device is on an ente...

Messaging processing, analytics, and business integrationPart 4 of the Azure training series, Build end-to-end IoT solutionsPreventive maintenance is a key IoT scenario—detect that something is wrong before there is any damage. In this module, you’ll write code to send continuous telemetry to an IoT hub that will use Azure Stream Analytics and a built-in machine learning model to warn of anomalies. Using Power BI to visualize the d...

Device provisioning at scalePart 3 of the Azure training series, Build end-to-end IoT solutionsThis portion of the workshop walks through a hypothetical asset-monitoring solution that requires IoT devices with sensors for tracking location, temperature, and pressure to be placed in product transport boxes. When a new box enters the system, it is equipped with the new IoT device. The device needs to be auto-provisioned to the IoT hub using Azur...

To fully embrace the cloud, businesses need to understand where the balance of responsibilities lies between protecting the cloud infrastructure, which is the responsibility of the cloud provider, and protecting the data that resides in the cloud, which is the responsibility of the customer. This is what cloud providers refer to as the shared responsibility model. Please join us in this webinar co-hosted by Microsoft and Check Point to learn a...
