Moving your data center to the AWS cloud can reduce your cost, improve flexibility, and simplify resource management. Come learn how you can use Windows-based technologies in the AWS cloud to power your business. If you want to explore running Microsoft Windows and Windows-based workloads of any size and level of complexity in AWS, this session is for you. We focus on key topics ranging from taking the first simple steps running Windows on AWS to expert topics like deploying enterprise workloads using AWS deployment technologies and the tools you already know and are familiar with, such as Visual Studio, .NET, and Windows PowerShell. Filled with tons of demos, this session shows you how to use Windows to bridge your on-premises network with AWS and quickly deploy enterprise workloads such as Exchange Server, SQL Server, SharePoint Server, and Windows ISV applications. Be prepared with all your Windows questions.
