Project goals:

  • Create Azure Web Apps in U.S. East regions
  • Enable Autoscaling for web apps
  • Deploy sample application from Visual Studio with Application Insights enabled

Testimonial

I upskilled with Simplilearn to align with a five-year cloud project. The course, covering AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, was flexible, with virtual classes fitting into my schedule. Studying on weekends and during early mornings allowed me to balance work and learning. Post-certification, I was promoted twice—first to Senior Technical Architect and then Senior Development Manager—with a 30% salary hike. The course boosted my Azure expertise, client communication, and career growth.
