First Steps into Azure
Then one day, cloud computing began to emerge like the wind, surfing every technology page is cloud computing, then cloud this and that. It is not like that. With my curious nature, I also tried to see what it was. I went on google to read everything but did not understand anything because there was no one for me to ask. However, like a wind, I faked a Dreampark account (Actually, at that time, I intended to get the windows license key and some other things), surfed through a gift code about Azure students I always fight.

So initially, there were “goods” to play with the Cloud. I remember that after I finished eating the “code,” the first thing I did was create a VPS (VM) to satisfy my two dreams: one is to own a VPS, the other is to have one. My network is also strong if the machine has a robust bandwidth to download movies with the naive thought that the network is on a robust VPS. After I scratched the VM, I left it there and continued my path of coding and learning.

Second step: Light understanding of Cloud
After my study ended with a post-graduate degree + university + 1 NIIT degree, I was recruited by my brother, who is also my second teacher, to a famous programmer training center. In Da Nang and the whole country (Softech Aptech) with the position of a teacher. I had much time to study new and old things to improve my abilities, and more specifically, in Aptech’s curriculum at that time (Around 2014–2015), there were 2 -3 subjects related to Azure. Now I have more time to study Azure (although I did not teach this subject at that time). Besides VM, I also know Azure Database, AppService, Storage, and I started teaching and giving students practice with these items. This time, I had a plain view and a better picture of Cloud, Azure, and limited application in practice.

Azure is a fully integrated cloud solution used to build, deploy, and manage applications through Microsoft’s global network of data centers. Integration tools, DevOps, and a community help you build efficiently from simple mobile apps to large-scale solutions.
