95% of Fortune 500 building on Azure. Adobe is building on open source \u2013 one of the biggest PostgreSQL customers. NeuroIntiative using GPUs to simulate drug tests for treatments for Alzheimer’s.<\/p>\n
There\u2019s no one way to use Azure. Find the bits you want to use and deploy them in a good way that suits.<\/p>\n
54 announced regions. Availability Zones in US, Europe, and Asia, more regions coming soon.<\/p>\n
NDv2: 8 x NVIDIA Tesla V100 NVLINK GPUs, 40 Intel SkyLake cores, 672 GB RAM, AI, ML, and HPC workloads.<\/p>\n
NVv2: Tesla M60 GPU. Premium SSD suppor, up to 448 GB RAM, CAD, Gaming 3D design<\/p>\n
HB: Highest memory bandiwidth in the cloud. 60 AMD EPYC cores, 100 Gbps Infiniband. Memory bandwidth intensive HPC workloads.<\/p>\n
HC: Up to 3.7 Ghz clock speed. 44 Intel SkyLake cores, 100 Gbps Infiniband. CPU intensive HPC workloads.<\/p>\n
200 trillion objects. 160 trillion transactions per month.<\/p>\n
Standard SSD is GA. Ultra SSD in preview \u2013 sub millisecond latency, up to 160,000 IOPS and 2,000 MB\/s throughput.<\/p>\n
A demo of Ultra SSD. Opens up an E64s_v3 VM with Ultra SSD. Run IOMETER. Gets nearly 80,000 IOPS and .6 millisecond latency. That’s a single disk! Now for demo 2 with a new VM type. Runs IOMETER. Gets 161,000 IOPS on a single ultra SSD without striping or caching – durable writes. Double the performance of the competition.<\/p>\n
There will be a single VM SLA for VMs running Ultra SSD.<\/p>\n
100,000 miles of fibre to connect the 54 regions with 130+ edge sites.<\/p>\n
ExpressRoute Global Reach allows you to connect your connections together to use the MS WAN as your WAN. Virtual WAN is GA. Front Door uses those edge as a globally available secure entry point to web services in Azure. And Azure ExpressRoute Direct offers 100 Gbps connections to Azure.<\/p>\n
24 TB RAM physical machines. 12 TB RAM VMs on the way. 20+ certified solution architectures on Azure.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
Reasons:<\/p>\n
A new feature in Kubernetes (K8s) to allow burst capacity based on Azure Container Instances called Virtual Node. The node is a VM that can be loaded up with ACIs when demand spikes. You get per-second billing to deal with unusual loads.<\/p>\n
Microsoft offers the only true consistent hybrid experience. Azure Stack, DevOps, data, AD, and security\/management.<\/p>\n
A key piece of this is Windows Server 2019, which has hybrid built in. Hybrid: Azure Backup, ASR, Storage Migration Services, Azure Network Adapter<\/p>\n
Erin Chapple comes out to demo Windows Admin Center.<\/p>\n
End of life coming January 2020, and for SQL Server on July 9, 2019. If you migrate these to Azure, you’ll get 3 years of free security fixes – you’ll have to pay if you stay on-premises.<\/p>\n
Microsoft has announced availability of the first Azure Sphere dev kit.<\/p>\n
Data Box Edge is also announced. You can pre-process data on-prem before moving it to the cloud. It has FPGAs (or whatever) built in.<\/p>\n
Azure Stack will support more nodes in the coming weeks. Event hubs and Blockchain deployment coming in preview this year.<\/p>\n
Starts with the physical and software security of Azure and extends out to the edge and on-premises. 1.2 billion devices and 750,000 user authentications offer a lot of data for analysis.<\/p>\n
New announcements:<\/p>\n
Governance normally restricts and slows down. Azure Policy doesn’t slow you down. A new addition, Blueprints, plans out deployments that are known and trusted. DevOps can deploy a blueprint to stay within the guardrails. It’s ARM template + Policy, resource group(s), and RBAC.<\/p>\n
In a demo, we see a new Azure Policy feature – the ability to remediate variance.<\/p>\n
CTO of JB Hunt, Gary Downy comes on stage. A trucking company that also does last mile and rail transport. Facing disruptive technologies such as driver-less and a shortage of drivers. They had on-prem systems but they wouldn’t scale with the business. Now they use Azure DevOps, Git, and Kubernetes for most of their systems.<\/p>\n
Start with assessment. Then migrate. Then optimize and transition into management & security (ownership).<\/p>\n
