Blog and Personal Updates for 2023

Dear diary, looking at the update frequency of my blog, or more specifically lack of such, it’s safe to say that this year has been off to a very rocky start. As usual, lots has been going on, luckily not all of it bad, but overall this part of my life I have been neglecting completely, and I am not happy about it.

Going over the blog stuff first, while I’m looking to have a little more comprehensive write-up in the near future, the short of it is that I have finally ditched AWS Amplify as the hosting platform, and moved to Azure Static Web Apps. This is both because I like money, and because I have taken a turn towards Azure/Microsoft side of things in general, so moving stuff over helps me going forward in multiple ways. Was it as easy as pointing a service to my GitHub repo, as was the original plan when using GitHub as part of the workflow? Ha, you wish. But we’ll get to that.

On a more personal note, I’ve just about been able to keep up with things, but hopefully everything is getting somewhat more organized now. While I have been recently studying for the AZ-104: Azure Administrator certification, I also took up AI-900 and DP-900 as the final Microsoft Virtual Training Days offerings, and need to get those in the bag soon. Oh, and then there’s the “30 Days to Learn It / Cloud Skills Challenge” for AZ-305: Designing Microsoft Azure Infrastructure Solutions, which is a bit jumping the gun, but at the same time the discounted voucher would help a lot in the near-ish future. And then I’m trying to keep up with all the security stuff as well…

So much to do, so little time.
