Folks we’re finally here! The stage is set and light the lights as it’s all ready
to go oooorrrrffff on March 29th 2014!
What is it – it’s back!!!!
The Global Windows Azure Bootcamp –
over 134 locations will be delivering this world wide event at the same time (same
relative time).
In April of 2013 we held the first
Global Windows Azure Bootcamp at more
than 90 locations around the globe! This year we want to again offer up a one
day deep dive class to help thousands of people get up to speed on developing Cloud
Computing Applications for Windows Azure. In addition to this great learning
opportunity the hands on labs will feature pooling a huge
global compute farm to perform
diabetes research!
Where is it?
It’s back at Saxons in the city – 10 Barrack Street, NSW 2000 (see the rego page for
all the details)
Why you?
It’s a free day of Azure training delivered by several MVPs and other
community prominent experts.
