// Requirements, Design Patterns, Cloud Architecture Oh My

Chris is a Cloud Solution Architect at Microsoft. He'll explore how GitHub Actions can be used to deploy your own static sites (or other apps!) to Azure.

In this session, Chris will discuss some of the fundamental concepts of the Cloud and Azure, and providing an introductory walkthrough of the Azure Portal.

Chris Reddington is joined by Lee Williams to explore game streaming — the technology that streams a game to your device from cloud-hosted infrastructure, rather than running it locally. The episode covers how cloud economies of scale make low-latency game delivery viable, the consumer shift toward subscription models (Xbox Game Pass, Google Stadia), what the streaming model means for game creators building games as living services, and the future of multi-device gaming experiences.
