Azure Stack HCI
Readiness Bootcamp
Brought to you by:
Azure Stack HCI-Readiness Bootcamp Lecture Series
This series of lectures partitioned over three days are designed to give the fundamental knowledge on Azure Stack HCI. It is primarily designed for presale technical resources involved with positioning Azure Stack HCI in customers environments but anybody with an interest in Azure Stack HCI will benefit.
The curriculum has been designed to cover the overview of the HCI trend in IT environments and then build the knowledge base on the Specific of Azure Stack HCI. Architecture, suitable workloads, solution deployments, VM sizing and hybrid connectivity to Azure will be covered in this bootcamp. Intel and Microsoft experts will be presenting each section to ensure the best possible coverage of the content.
