• The Azure Compute team builds a fault-tolerant, distributed system on top of commodity datacenter hardware, to deliver infrastructure for hosting cloud applications in virtual machines (VMs). We create an illusion that resources are limitless, infinitely elastic, and always available.
• I work for the Availability Platform team that primarily focuses on making sure every Azure VM is available with an SLA of 99.99+%. Getting to that target and beyond requires out-of-the-box thinking, backed by sound data-driven decisions.
