If you don&#8217;t stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.\u201d To help you do that without spending too much time looking around, this weekly series will highlight what\u2019s new from across Azure over the previous week; however, it won\u2019t provide a comprehensive list of everything that\u2019s new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That said, here&#8217;re five highlights from last week:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1-java-on-azure\">1. Java on Azure<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">JavaOne was last week in San Francisco, so there was a lot happening around the Java offering on Azure. Prior to the event, we announced <a href=\"https:\/\/azure.microsoft.com\/en-us\/blog\/ready-for-javaone-bringing-java-and-kubernetes-together-in-azure\/\">support for securely deploying and redeploying Java apps on Kubernetes in Azure Container Service using Maven<\/a>. At the event, we announced <a href=\"https:\/\/azure.microsoft.com\/en-us\/blog\/announcing-the-preview-of-java-support-for-azure-functions\/\">Java support for Azure Functions<\/a>, which is now in public preview. Check out the <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.microsoft.com\/en-us\/azure\/azure-functions\/functions-reference-java\">Azure Functions Java developer guide<\/a> to learn more. We released <a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/Azure\/azure-sdk-for-java\">Azure Management Libraries for Java v1.3<\/a>, which adds support for Availability Zones, Network Peering, Virtual Network Gateways, and Azure Container Instances. Start exploring what you can do with <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.microsoft.com\/en-us\/java\/azure\/\">Java on Azure<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"2-reflections-on-microsoft-ignite-2017\">2. Reflections on Microsoft Ignite 2017<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Corporate Vice President, Julia White, gathered her thoughts to provide highlights from the recent Microsoft Ignite event in Orlando, FL, which includes links to some useful articles that came out from the event. Be sure to give her post a read: <a href=\"https:\/\/azure.microsoft.com\/en-us\/blog\/azure-is-the-enterprise-cloud-highlights-from-microsoft-ignite-2017\/\">Azure is the Enterprise Cloud \u2013 highlights from Microsoft Ignite 2017<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"3-sql-server-2017-linux-windows-vms-now-available-in-azure-marketplace\">3.

Azure Building Blocks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Last week we released&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/mspnp\/template-building-blocks\/wiki\">Azure Building Blocks<\/a>, which are a set of tools and Azure Resource Manager templates that are designed to simplify deployment of Azure resources.
