Agenda What is Azure? SharePoint On-prem vs. Office 365 SharePoint farm topologies Key Azure learnings for SharePoint admins Performance and Storage considerations

What is Azure? Multitude of cloud services Platforms as a Service (PaaS) Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) Pay as you go Changes all the time Updating/Improving Adding services

Key Azure Learnings for SharePoint Admins Networking User Connectivity VM/SKU Sizing Storage High Availability What’s next?

Key Azure Learnings for SharePoint Admins Networking and Storage is the Key! Separate your key networks Manage your IOPs User Connectivity Access from Corporate Networks Access from Internet Add DCs to the cloud Read-only DCs work great Review the SKU Sizing for memory Understand Changes in SharePoint for the future

Isolated Virtual Networks Separate your key networks SharePoint Servers Web Front-Ends, Dist. Cache, App Servers Contain SP Server traffic Domain Controllers Access from farm members Can route through VPN/ER to CorpNet Should be Read-Only DCs for security SQL Servers Isolate from other server types Needed for Always On configuration
