Prepare with six comprehensive AZ-204-style practice exams containing 600 scenario-based questions focused on developing solutions for Microsoft Azure.

This course is designed for Azure developers, cloud engineers, software developers, DevOps professionals, application engineers, and learners who want to review the technical skills previously measured by the Microsoft Azure Developer Associate certification.

The practice exams cover Azure compute solutions, including Azure App Service, deployment slots, autoscaling, Azure Functions, triggers, bindings, Azure Container Apps, Azure Container Instances, and Azure Container Registry.

You will also practice Azure storage development with Azure Cosmos DB and Azure Blob Storage. Topics include SDK operations, consistency levels, change feed, blob metadata, lifecycle management, shared access signatures, managed identities, retry policies, and resilient storage access.

Security scenarios cover Microsoft Entra ID, OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, Microsoft Graph permissions, Azure Key Vault, managed identities, Azure App Configuration, authorization, secure secret handling, and delegated access.

Monitoring and troubleshooting topics include Application Insights, Azure Monitor, distributed tracing, availability tests, application telemetry, dependency monitoring, exception analysis, and performance diagnostics.

The integration section includes Azure API Management, API policies, Azure Event Grid, Event Hubs, consumer groups, Azure Service Bus queues and topics, sessions, Queue Storage, dead-letter handling, webhooks, retry strategies, and Microsoft Graph APIs.

Every question includes explanations for the correct answer and each incorrect option. These explanations help you understand why a particular Azure service or development pattern is appropriate, distinguish between similar technologies, and identify areas that need further review.

By completing all six practice exams, you can strengthen Azure application development knowledge, improve architectural decision-making, identify knowledge gaps, and review 600 professional exam-style scenarios.

Important: Microsoft retired AZ-204 and the Azure Developer Associate certification on July 31, 2026. This course should therefore be positioned as a legacy AZ-204 skills review and practice resource rather than preparation for an active certification exam.
