New website!

So the new website is hosted in Azure on a Static Web App now instead of using a storage account this makes moer sense and reducing costs as I needed to have a Azure Front Door before to the storage account since the old CDN was deprecated a while back, it also greatly improves the workflow of updating since I just push the changes needed to my GitHub repo and the workflow generates and publishes the changes.

Managed Identities and How I Use Them

Managed Identities

Today I want to highlight Managed Identities and how they can be used in different ways. There are two forms of Managed Identities and they are System assigned and User assigned, they both have use cases and can be utilized the same way.
