About Marc:Marc is a lead consultant at Xpirit with a strong focus on event-driven architectures. He has extensive knowledge of the serverless offerings in the Azure platform and he enjoys helping organizations making effective use of cloud-based technology. You might have seen Marc at a developer meetup or conference since he's a regular speaker in the area of Azure cloud & serverless technologies. He started Azure Functions University, a free and open source learning curriculum on GitHub, where everyone can learn about Azure Functions at their own pace. In his spare time, Marc likes to give attention to the creative part of his brain. He likes to create pixel art, code visuals & music, and occasionally create retro games.

Join us in this episode, where we discuss the numerous aspects of moving towards a cloud-only architecture. Having a more lightweight approach to on-premises is often something that companies are focusing on, so we take a look at the relevant aspects such as file shares, legacy apps, Active Directory, and security. Also, Tobi asks Jussi an unexpected question!
