Looking to transform your data center into more modern, easy to manage and cloud-driven infrastructure? Well, first of all – congratulations! You’re on the right path 😀 – Azure Stack HCI is probably the hottest cake in the hybrid cloud market right now. If you’re planning to move onto Azure Stack HCI but not sure
Being able to provision VMs through the public Azure portal has been an eagerly awaited feature amongst the AzS HCI community and finally it is here! And of course, I could not pass off the opportunity to try it myself ASAP! The official Msft documentation is here, and feel free to follow that, but honestly
Recently I made a career switch and with that, here I am back to learning the alphabets! I mainly come from a software/application background and the new role I’ve landed myself into requires of me not only the application knowledge but also the relevant hardware understanding. What that means for me is going back to
In the previous part we talked about clusters and the core concepts associated with them. We talked about what they are, how they work, how to create them, register them and manage them end-to-end via Windows Admin Center (WAC). In this chapter we are going to talk briefly about some networking concepts associated with Azure
When you deploy Azure Stack HCI, you deploy it in the form of a cluster, with multiple nodes participating. A cluster is basically a group of otherwise independent servers (nodes) that are interconnected to work with each other to provide features like scalability, high availability, load balancing, etc. and many more. An HCI cluster collects
In the previous part we talked about Azure Arc, which is integral in our Azure Hybrid Cloud story. Azure Arc is essentially the glue that sticks our on-prem or multi-cloud infrastructure to the Azure portal, for unified management and control. We are now ready to move on to other infrastructure focused concepts such as storage,
In the previous part we discussed the “HCI” part in Azure Stack HCI and how it is different than the conventional non-converged infrastructure and the advantages of it. Azure Stack HCI is very tightly coupled with Azure Arc and so it becomes crucial that we discuss Azure Arc first before we move on. Azure Arc
