šŸš€ 8 Days of Azure PaaS — Updates!

Day 1 & Day 2 are live — and this is just the beginning.

I’m two days into my new project: 8 Days of Azure PaaS šŸŽ‰

Over 8 days, I’m refreshing and documenting my knowledge of Microsoft Azure’s Platform as a Service (PaaS) offerings. Each day I dive into a different piece — App Services, Functions, SQL Database, AKS, Logic Apps, and more — while sharing notes, gotchas, and hands-on examples.

šŸ’” This is a learn-in-public project. I’m sharing the journey openly — the good, the confusing, and the “aha!” moments — along with the learning sources I review.

šŸ‘‰ Read Day 2 — Azure App Services

šŸ”¹ Why I’m Doing This

In a recent interview, I realized I’ve been deep in the MSP world, IT security, RMM tools, and PSA platforms — but needed a refresher on Azure’s PaaS side. This project keeps me accountable and fills in those gaps while sharing the journey with others.

šŸ”¹ What’s Covered So Far

  • Day 1 – What is PaaS? (vs IaaS & SaaS) ✅
  • Day 2 – Azure App Services ✅

šŸ”¹ What’s Coming Up

  • Day 3 – Azure Functions
  • Day 4 – Azure SQL Database
  • Day 5 – Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)
  • Day 6 – Logic Apps & Event Grid
  • Day 7 – App Service Plans & Scaling
  • Day 8 – Security & Identity in PaaS

Follow along as I update the guide daily — and if you’ve got real-world examples or tips on Azure PaaS, I’d love to hear them.

When Your Core MSP Tool Becomes the Headline

⚠️ Security Advisory: N-able N-central on CISA KEV — CVE-2025-8875 (insecure deserialization) & CVE-2025-8876 (command injection). Active exploitation reported. Update to 2025.3.1 Or install 2024.6 HF2 Enforce MFA for Admins Share client notice MSPs, Take Note: When Your Core Tool Is in the Crosshairs The N-central news shows how fast a central platform can become a central risk. In the MSP world, your RMM/central platform is the heartbeat of patching, monitoring, and response. When it lands on the KEV list, it’s not just a patch—it’s an operational fire drill: validate exposure, confirm versions, brief staff, notify clients, and verify compensating controls. Why It Hurts the MSP Space Trust shockwave: Headlines trigger client anxiety. Even fully patched orgs get the “Are we safe?” calls. Operational drag: War-room time: scanning, change w...

Every RFP is more than paperwork

Breaking Down an RFP: From Discovery to MRR šŸ’” Every RFP is more than paperwork — it’s your chance to tell a story, build trust, and lay the foundation for recurring revenue. Too often, RFPs are dismissed as just another box to check. They’re actually a blueprint for how an organization sees its partnerships. For MSPs, each section reveals priorities and challenges. By mastering the structure, you not only increase your odds of winning projects, but also build long-term predictable growth. Timelines especially matter — usually broken into discovery, design, implementation, testing, and handoff. Watch sub-headings carefully: a “Project Plan” timeline may only apply to that section, while another may appear in “Implementation.” Multiple, nested timelines are common — miss them, and scope gets messy fast.
