Free workshop and lab: Thursday 5th November 2020.
Looking to drive cost savings and efficiencies managing your .NET application estate? Microsoft’s .NET Modernization in a Day workshop was built to help you evaluate your applications, prepare them for migration and host them on managed tools in Azure that were purpose-built for .NET.
In our workshop facilitated by Bill Chesnut and Chris Gilbert, you will better understand:
How to evaluate and prioritize .NET applications for modernization
How Microsoft technologies can help you increase .NET application resiliency and allow them to scale easily

The morning session will focus on best practices, design patterns and common obstacles to avoid, and mapping out your migration/modernization strategy. The afternoon session will be dedicated to hands-on training with our Migration Assistant and the easy to use Azure App Service and Azure SQL Database offerings that have been custom built to host and power .NET applications.
