This course will help an IT professional prepare for the AZ-303, Microsoft Azure Architect Technologies exam or simply learn about common Azure services.

Overview:

Cloud computing is growing at an accelerating pace, and skills in cloud computing are becoming an important part of any IT professional’s resume. Microsoft offers role-based certifications in several areas of Azure, and the most advanced certification for IT administrators is the Azure Solutions Architect Expert. This certification is achieved by passing two exams: Microsoft Azure Architect Technologies and Microsoft Azure Architect Design.

This course is designed to help you pass the first exam on Azure technologies. It discusses the common services in Azure and lays the foundation for architecting solutions in Azure. All the skills measured on the Microsoft Azure Architect Technologies exam are covered in this course.
