Issue #421 - 4th June 2023

A slightly more condensed issue after the bumper, post Microsoft BUILD edition. A couple of announcements, and a number of interesting posts. First up Create ready-to-code dev boxes using config as code - now in preview, and Microsoft Enterprise SSO for Apple Devices Is Now Available for Everyone. and Azure Container Apps Updates and Improvements.

My noteworthy posts for this issue are as follows: How do LLMs work with Vision AI OCR, Image & Video Analysis, and a deep dive into Confidential VMs on Azure. There's an interesting post son Implementing database change notification using SignalR and Azure Functions, and a good round-up of Azure Global Distribution Solutions. A handy hint for Tidying Up URLs: Removing Trailing Slashes in Azure Static Web Apps, and a nice little demo of Generate and send SMS and Email using Azure OpenAI Services and Azure Communication Services.
