In this book, you'll learn about:

Designing Your System - Begin with design considerations: sizing, availability, security, cost, and more. Then understand Microsoft Azure’s architecture and recommended practices for architecture design and service configuration. Walk through network architecture, storage options, and optimizations for your system.
Operating Your System - Make sure your system is operating at peak efficiency with tools like SAP Solution Manager and Azure monitor, and keep the bottom line in mind with cost management tools.
Protecting Your System - Hope for the best, plan for the worst. Make sure your system can run without significant downtime (high availability) and can be restored in the event of failure (disaster recovery). Leverage backup mechanisms, shared storage, and encryption to make your system resilient!
Preparing for Migration - Evaluate your migration readiness, preview the states of any migration project, and begin planning your migration.
