• Feel overwhelmed trying to get website online

  You'll probably want PostgreSQL and Storage Accounts as well - be VERY careful provisioning that; if you play with the Azure Cost Calculator you'll see it's pretty easy to make a PostgreSQL instance that's ~$80 and also one that's ~$8. Similarly, there are features on e,g. Storage Accounts (namely SFTP access) that you REALLY don't want to turn on. (SFTP access on a storage acct is like $250 USD a month!). Source: 11 months ago

• I’m Thomas Maurer, Microsoft Certified Trainer MCT. Ask me anything (AMA) Microsoft Azure training, certifications, and cloud computing career advancement.

  I agree with you, pricing in a cloud and pay-per-use world can be challenging. Now as you mentioned the pricing calculator is a great starting point: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/calculator/. Source: 11 months ago

• Any recommendations for .net web hosting with SQL Server?

  What type of resources and consumption plans are you using? The lowest I can find on the Azure Pricing Calculator is about $14/mo for just an App Service and a SQL Database. Source: 11 months ago

• Generating cloudwatch alarms using 'metric math' via CloudFormation and Terraform.

  There are several well-known 3rd party tools, such as Splunk or DataDog, but people often forget there is a handy set of tools provided by AWS under the CloudWatch banner. CloudWatch provides a range of services, such as exposing metrics, linking them to alarms, and X-ray services, to allow us to understand the performance of services in more depth. - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago

• Refactoring a serverless application to use Step Functions third-party API call integration

  I use the OpenWeather API to receive the current temperature data by providing the latitude and longitude coordinates as query strings in the request. A Lambda function invokes the weather API and sends the current temperature value as a custom metric to CloudWatch. I then graph the temperature values on a dashboard and activate an alarm when the temperature sinks below zero degrees Celsius. - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago

• Build Amazon CloudWatch Dashboards with AWS CDK for Serverless Services

  The library provides “easy-to-use CDK constructs for monitoring your AWS infrastructure with Amazon CloudWatch.” It abstracts the CW widget creation and simplifies it with out of the box support for many AWS services such as API Gateway, Lambda, DynamoDB and more. - Source: dev.to / 7 months ago
