Ever wondered how the hybrid approach is reshaping the world of cloud adoption in network infrastructure? Then, buckle up for an exciting journey with Karl Cooke, an Azure Solutions Architect and Azure MVP, who is joining us to shed light on the intriguing Azure MVP program and share valuable insights on the Azure network architecture evolution.

During our exchange, we take a deep-dive into the complexities and solutions of a hybrid cloud environment. From delving into the nitty-gritty of procurement times to discussing the importance of Terraform in deploying infrastructure across multiple cloud providers, we leave no stone unturned. We further discuss the merits of internal developer platforms (IDPs) like Backstage and how they are revolutionizing businesses.

As we steer into the realm of managed Kubernetes, we uncover the edges that managed clusters have over self-managed ones (and vice versa) and the critical role of networking in a Kubernetes space. Karl also highlights the potential of Azure Arc for hybrid cloud capabilities and the advantages it brings in terms of onboarding servers, security updates, and enabling logging and monitoring for on-premises servers. This episode is packed with insights, making it a must-listen for anyone eager to keep up with the rapid pace of cloud computing, networking, and infrastructure as code.
