This Week I Learned -  * For dependency visualization Azure Migrate: Server Assessment leverages the power and technology from Log Analytics. The dependency visualization is free for the first 180 days from the day of associating a Log Analytics workspace with the Server Assessment tool. After 180 days, standard Log Analytics charges will apply.  And if you use any other solution within that Log Analytics workspace it is not free, and you’ll incur standard Log Analytics charges. My recommendation is to leave the tool gathering the dependency visualization data for at least 30 days as that should capture a good picture of what happens within your environment and show any specific workload spikes.      *  A Practical Guide to DESIGNING SECURE HEALTH SOLUTIONS Using Microsoft Azure *  Datastore Choices Cheat Sheet *  Vertex AI is the end-to-end ML platform from Google which ties all stages from data curation to model training to deployment and monitoring.

This Week I Learned -  * Microsoft Power Platform consists of Power Apps, Power Automate (formerly Flow), Power BI, and Power Virtual Agents Microsoft Power Platform provides a suite of capabilities for Dynamics 365 applications via the Power Platform Admin Center. *  Azure Stack, AWS Outposts and Google Anthos aim to integrate on-premises resources with the public cloud services on Azure, AWS and Google Cloud Platform (GCP), respectively .  Organizations can use the on-premises hardware they already own to build a hybrid cloud with Anthos, or they can purchase inexpensive commodity servers. Google offers the most flexibility with hardware choices, while AWS offers the least. Azure Stack and Outposts are  not  multi-cloud products. They only work with their respective clouds -- Azure or AWS -- and IT teams cannot integrate them with other public clouds.  * Microsoft bought Github in 2018.  For hosting code repositories , nothing comes close to GitHub . * With the new service Azure Reso

The 600-paged 2020 Web Almanac  [PDF] is HTTP Archive’s annual state of the web report. *  Images are the greatest source of weight. This means, it will also be our greatest source of savings. * Microbrowsers, lso known as “link unfurlers” and “link expanders,” these are the user agents that request web pages and grab bits and pieces from them to assemble rich previews when links are shared in messaging or on social media. The lingua franca of microbrowsers is Facebook’s Open Graph protocol * Amazon, Microsoft and Google are all Databricks

This Week I Learned -  * A custom connector is a wrapper around a REST API (Logic Apps also supports SOAP APIs) that allows Logic Apps, Power Automate, or Power Apps to communicate with that REST or SOAP API. Once you have an API with authenticated access, you can describe your API using OpenAPI definitions and Postman collections so that Logic Apps, Power Automate, or Power Apps can communicate with your API.  If you'd like to share your connector with all users of Logic Apps, Power Automate, and Power Apps, you can submit your connector for Microsoft certification . *  Google Cloud Certification - Professional Cloud Architect prep material *  Cisco's perspective on multi-cloud   - As the adoption of multicloud has increased, so has the potential for evolution to cloud-native operating models and the transformation in IT capabilities delivered by such an evolution. That transformation, in turn, helps enable agility and responsiveness for the business. Hence, the rationale for
