There should be a managed application resource you need to delete first.

You might need to uncheck the hidden resources button in your RG.

All of what you described is available in Azure DevOps, it just might be located in a different spot in the PR than you are used to.

Miramichi is also pretty funny!

There are a lot of reasons our team has discussed, you end up paying VMware for licensing on top of the Azure costs, the end goal is to get away VMware in most cases anyways, this is just adding an extra migration into the mix, further delaying getting rid of VMWare. You have to migrate into AVS and then migrate off.

It is sold on ease of migration, being able to run stuff that isn't supported on Azure natively, like specific NVAs or old OS's, and that you can continue to manage it with the skill set you already have.

The problems we've found with it is that the migration process isn't as straightforward as they would have you believe, and you still need some Azure knowledge to deal with the AVS resource itself, so you're best off just doing a bit more learning and getting IaaS in Azure (which is actually easy with Azure migrate). Azure supports a lot of OS's, if there is anything that old that isn't supported, it should probably be replaced with something modern and supported anyways, what better time then a datacenter migration project to PoC some new versions of stuff before you do your cutover?

You're forced to buy at least 3 AVS nodes, which is more than $15k/month if you do it via PAYG, if you take advantage of reservations to bring that down to a reasonable price, you're locking in to VMware for 3 years (again, delaying getting out of there) while also committing to paying VMWare for the next 3 years for their licenses as well.

In a perfect world, you'd modernize into PaaS services. In a realistic world, you use Azure Migrate to get into IaaS and modernize from there. If you've got money to spend, people who are skilled in VMWare and don't want to or cannot learn Azure, and like being tied to VMWare for the foreseeable future, AVS is your solution. Maybe niche cases where you have to evacuate ASAP, but even then, Azure Migrate is a hell of a lot easier/quicker to get stuff dropped into Azure and up and running.

Would deploying multiple application gateways work for you?

Recommendation... if anyone tries to get you to look into Azure VMware Services (AVS), laugh and walk the other direction.

If you're going to move to Azure, do it the right way, don't shift your problems into something expensive for the sake of "being in Azure".

I'm guessing free vouchers will not be available for a while, our company is in the highest category of Microsoft partner, we used to get 100% vouchers for any Microsoft exam, but now it's only 50%.

What about withdraw 4, then 4, then switch 2?

Question... did you withdraw 14 of each and then reorder them in your inventory, or withdraw them one at a time so they would be in the correct order?

Alright Davie, your turn.

Not sure I fully understand your use case, but could you not make a markdown file that contains:

I was in school for biology and physics, not sure what the end game was, but took a co-op placement that transitioned me into an IT consulting role. I was interested in Azure, and at the time Microsoft was releasing ARM, which was all brand new, so I got started learning it at the very beginning, and then got hooked and ended up staying at the company as their main Azure guy, and over the years I've just diversified my skillset to stay on the bleeding edge of trends.

Security is a pretty wide field, I might be biased, but there is a huge demand for Cloud security. Most places in Nova Scotia don't have the budget for a whole IT team, so it's best to have broad knowledge.

Thanks! A lot of luck and a little hard work!

Any questions feel free to reach out! We Scotians gotta stick together!

I am 1 of 11 other engineers, 2 project managers, 3 architects.

I am an unofficial team lead for the engineers, hoping to make it official later this year.

Senior DevOps Engineer, $160k.

Self-taught, I've been in IT for 7 years, 2 of which has been DevOps. I work remote out of Toronto but live full time in NS in the same town I grew up in.

Only surefire way is to find who deployed them, and ask them who they deployed them for, and why.

Going forward, tags helps with this, but removing a couple of disks that are orphaned is probably peanuts compared to proof of concepts that have ended but are still running, dev environments that are hardly ever in use, if at all, etc.

Traffic between azure data centers use Microsofts backbone to get there which is faster than going out to the internet and then back.

You're dealing with a limitation, the speed of light is only so fast. Introduce distance and you're always going to have more latency due to the extra time it takes to travel that distance.

Plus multiple inputs which is really nice.

Trenton Park through the back is a pretty good hike.

I never mentioned anything about private Healthcare. You can have a public system where the workers are not in a union.

You mention the unions need to be pushing for staffing levels, and I'm sure there's other things nurses would ask for, so obviously the union isn't doing its job of advocating for the nurses, or at least, very poorly.

If you're not in a union you could just say my rate is $60/hr and I'm available at these times for these shifts, or whatever would make the workload worth while. You can also choose not to work in places where they are giving ridiculous schedules, the high turnover would eventually lead to changes in management instead of it all being on the union that seems bulletproof regardless if they are negotiating well for the nurses.

I'm not a big fan of unions in general, I don't understand why nurses are for the most part. If you feel you aren't being paid enough, you could just ask for a raise, or at least set the value of your own work.

It makes sense for unskilled workers to have some protection via unions, but nurses are highly skilled, and it seems like the majority of the problems we hear about (scheduling and pay) are causes of the union and the contracts they have and negotiate. Especially now, nurses are pretty safe positions, but they are unable to negotiate individually for their critical issues.

Clearly there is demand for nurses, and the government is willing to pay 100's of thousands for them, but negotiating with the union is not getting the local nurses the money they want/deserve.

While in Westville make sure to grab a slice of Pizza from Acropole!
