How to build an Attestation Page using Microsoft Power Apps

Chris Vaught Articles, Azure, Development Technologies & Tools, Tutorial 1 Comment

The purpose of this demo is to show you how easy it is to leverage Power Apps to quickly create an internal Attestation page. Power Apps can easily be tailored to meet your company’s design guidelines and delivered to your platform of choice, individualized, and tied to complex workflows leveraging the tools you use.

This post is organized into three, fairly simple steps. I tried to break it down into minute, succeeding tasks, so it’s easy to follow along. Without further ado, let’s jump right into it!

The steps described in this blog post allow for the adding of a Logic App on Azure to append rows to an Excel file. It took a lot of trial, and mostly error, to figure out how to describe what I wanted in the way that the Logic App would understand. Hopefully, the steps that I outlined in this blog post will save others the time it took me to come up with them.

Bridging the Gap: Azure App Insights to On-Prem Elastic Stack

Zach Gardner Articles, Azure, Cloud, Development Technologies & Tools, Tutorial 1 Comment

Recently, while working for a large healthcare client in New York, I ran into an interesting problem that had slim literature on how to solve it.

Our application is primarily on-prem, but it does leverage Azure for a few functions that are easier to solve in a cloud-native environment. We wanted to be able to monitor those functions using the same Elastic Stack that we use to monitor our on-prem application.

I was tasked with building a bridge between where our functionality logs to in Azure (App Insights), and getting that securely back into our Elasticsearch instance that powers our Elastic Stack.

This blog post will detail the solution I landed on. I hope it will be useful to others that need to solve a similar problem!

Getting Started with Azure Data Studio

On my last two projects, I decided to give Azure Data Studio a try to see how it measured up to SSMS. Azure Data Studio gives you a more modern editor experience. It’s comparable to Visual Studio Code with IntelliSense, source control with GIT, and an integrated terminal for Powershell or SQLMD commands.

Azure Data Studio was built with a data platform user in mind, and its easy editing and export options, built-in charting of query results, and customizable dashboards make it an incredibly valuable tool.

In this post, I’ll go over some of the basics of how to use Azure Data Studio.
