When you’re getting started with Azure there is so much to learn and so little time!  Below is a quick summary of the resources I recommend to my customers as they start ramping.

• Azure Overview Training – https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/training/learning-paths/azure-administrator/
• Azure Hands-On-Labs – https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/training/hands-on-labs/
• Recorded Presentations from Ignite – https://myignite.microsoft.com/videos
• Recorded Presentations from Build – https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/build
• Channel 9 – https://channel9.msdn.com/Tags/azure (just try to stick with recent content as Azure is very dynamic)
• Microsoft Virtual Academy – https://channel9.msdn.com/Tags/azure
• Microsoft Academy Professional training (Free for class, fee the certificate) – https://academy.microsoft.com/en-us/professional-program/

And for those of you already familiar with AWS:
