MS Build Developer Conference 2020. – Some
important announcements
News 1#
Per the Azure
portal, Microsoft has 58 Azure regions worldwide and available in 140
countries. As per MS Build 2020, it is announced that Microsoft has extended 3
more Azure regions which is a great leap in cloud computing. As per the latest
announcement, the number has reached to 61. Wow…
It has
officially left AWS and Google behind the race. As per MS-Build 2020 conference,
the Azure alone has more regions than AWS and Google together. The below
snapshot gives more clarity.
The Azure lovers
would celebrate this for sure.

Microsoft
has announced, “Azure Static Web Apps” in this developer conference. This is an
awesome service provided by Microsoft Azure team. It is a great work behind delivering
this super cool service.
Microsoft
Azure and GitHub came together and jointly given the privilege to developer
community to automatically builds and deploys full-stack web apps to Azure from
a GitHub repository.
The GitHub
Actions workflow works in the background. When you create an Azure static web
application, Azure sets-up a GitHub actions workflow in the application’s
source code repository that looks at the code branch of developer’s wish.
Whenever the developer commits any changes to the repository, the GitHub actions
invokes and build the application and if successful then immediately deploys
the application and its API to Azure. So cool… I’m sure, it would make the
developers’ life super easy.
