This is the super cut of my study notes for Microsoft AZ-900 Azure Fundamentals Exam. This is section 1 Describe Cloud Concepts (20-25%) which is really a significant portion of the exam having the potential to be a quarter of the exam. 

This goes into cloud concepts, basic cloud services overview, and we'll dive deeper into that in section 2 and 3. In this video we cover: 

Describe the differences between categories of cloud services
Describe the differences between types of cloud computing

This is the super cut 42 minute video of 6 individual videos
Do let me know what you think of these, as these are my personal study notes and I'm taking the test at the end of the month 2021.

What is Cloud Computing? In this episode we discuss AWS Cloud. AWS Cloud computing is the on-demand delivery of compute power, database storage, applications, and other IT resources through a cloud services platform via the Internet with pay-as-you-go pricing.

What is an Amazon EC2 Instance?

Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) provides scalable
 
computing capacity in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud.
 
Using Amazon EC2 eliminates your need to invest in hardware up 

front, so you can develop and deploy applications faster. 

You can use Amazon EC2 to launch as many or as few virtual 

servers as you need, configure security and networking, and 

manage storage. Amazon EC2 enables you to scale up or 

down to handle changes in requirements or spikes in popularity,
 
reducing your need to forecast traffic.

Amazon EC2 what is that?

Andrew Clay Shafer on Three Economies, the Wall of Confusion, and the Origin of DevOps

Ravi Mhatre is a founding partner at Lightspeed Venture Partners and focuses primarily on software/cloud infrastructure, applications and internet investments. Before starting Lightspeed, Mhatre was an investor with Bessemer Venture Partners and before entering the venture capital industry, he was with Silicon Graphics, where he was a product manager and later directed the company’s workstation market development efforts. In this conversation with Stanford lecturer Ravi Belani, he explores what a career in VC looks like, and talks about some of the sectors and technologies that he believes are poised to transform the future.

The team at Stanford eCorner believes in the powerful combination of evidence and imagination. We share original stories from informed leaders in academia and industry that focus on innovation, startups, culture, and strategy. The goal: empower you to bring bold ideas to life. 

Stanford eCorner is led by the Stanford Technology Ventures Program (STVP), the entrepreneurship center in Stanford University’s School of Engineering.

Software engineers, architects and team leads have found inspiration to drive change and innovation in their team by listening to the weekly InfoQ Podcast. They have received essential information that helped them validate their software development map. We have achieved that by interviewing some of the top CTOs, engineers and technology directors from companies like Uber, Netflix and more. Over 1,200,000 downloads in the last 3 years.

O'Reilly Media spreads the knowledge of innovators. At O’Reilly, a big part of our business is paying attention to what’s new and interesting in the world of technology. We have a pretty good record at having anticipated some of the big technology developments in recent history. For instance, we launched the first commercial Web site, GNN, in 1993; we organized the meeting at which the term “open source” was first adopted; we were early investors in Blogger, which helped launch the blogging revolution; and more recently, our Web 2.0 conference launched a world-wide meme. We call this predictive sense the “O’Reilly Radar.” And while we’re certainly not always right, we are, at least, good at making interesting guesses.

Our methodology is simple: we draw from the wisdom of the alpha geeks in our midst, paying attention to what’s interesting to them, amplifying these weak signals, and seeing where they fit into the innovation ecology. Add to that the original research conducted by our Research team, and you start to get a good picture of what the technology world is thinking about.
