Here we have a set of tutorials to work with Azure cloud technologies.

These tutorials represent my personal experience and may be helpful for other people. They are snapshots in time for a particular question I needed more investigation or I was just curious about. They may not represent the best approach to solve a particular problem. Consider as "some notes" with no warranty at all.

Some of them got (or will get) published at Azure HPC tech blog website [LINK].

Each folder contains a different tutorial and one tutorial may link to other tutorials in this repository.
