Try Azure out for Free this week!

May 05, 2010

Sorry I didn’t get this out sooner since it’s already half way through the week, but you can give Azure a test spin this week for free (without having to sign up for an Online account, etc.). This is good from May 3rd through the 10th. Check out the specifics over at the US ISV Developer Blog.

If you missed this week or don’t have enough time then there are many other ways to catch some free training on Azure:

Go to a Windows Azure Boot Camp in your area. (a one or two day FREE training course on the Azure platform with hands on labs and a temporary token to deploy apps with).
Attend a Windows Azure Webinar (less information than the Boot camp but you do get to deploy an app for free and cram a lot of knowledge into 1.5 hours).
Watch the Windows Azure Firestarter videos on Channel 9 (doesn’t come with a token or anything, but good stuff)

If you live in the Cincinnati/Dayton/Frankfort/Louisville area I will be giving some of the Windows Azure Boot Camps soon. I’ll post here when I have more specifics and you can also keep an eye on the Windows Azure Boot Camp website schedule as they will show up there as well.
