Azure Weekly

Issue #374 - 12th June 2022

After a week off because of the extended bank-holiday Jubilee celebrations in the UK, we're back with an edition that covers the last two weeks. There are two interesting announcements in the Identity Space:Introducing Microsoft Entra - modern identity and access solutions, and Dynamic Groups Enhancement Now at Preview for Azure Active Directory Users.

There are three interesting articles around dev tooling: Chaos engineering to improve application resiliency using Azure Chaos Studio, a nice dive into Guided Hunting Notebook: Azure Resource Explorer and Visual Studio Code Tools for Azure Revamped.

I was pleased to see this announcement, as the existing limit has hit a number of our bigger customers: Public Preview: Create additional 5000 Azure Storage accounts within your Subscription

In the web space, Azure Static Web Apps CLI is now GA general availability and there's an interesting article about Efficient OAuth Authorisation Management in Azure API Management.

Finally, there's a nice round-up about all the current container offerings on Azure: Azure Container Hosting Demystified - 2022 Edition
