Description

Welcome to "Mastering Azure Infrastructure Design: From Fundamentals to Expert Solutions," a comprehensive course designed for IT professionals aiming to become Microsoft Certified: Azure Solutions Architect Experts. This course will equip you with the knowledge and skills necessary to design scalable, secure, and resilient infrastructure solutions on Microsoft Azure, the leading cloud platform used by organizations worldwide.

Who Should Take This Course?

This course is ideal for aspiring and current cloud architects, IT professionals, system administrators, and cloud engineers who have experience working with Azure and want to advance their careers. If you’re a network administrator, developer, DevOps engineer, consultant, or technical advisor looking to deepen your expertise in Azure, this course is for you. It’s also suitable for IT managers and decision-makers responsible for designing and implementing cloud solutions within their organizations.

While the course is comprehensive, it's recommended that participants have foundational knowledge in Azure, typically acquired through the AZ-104: Microsoft Azure Administrator certification or equivalent experience. Familiarity with IT operations, including networking, virtualization, identity management, and data platforms, will also be beneficial.

What You Will Learn

This course is structured to provide you with a deep understanding of the key areas required to design Azure infrastructure solutions. By the end of the course, you will be able to:

1. Design Governance and Compute Solutions:

   • Learn how to design effective governance solutions to manage your Azure environment. Understand how to implement role-based access control (RBAC), policy management, and cost management strategies.

   • Gain expertise in designing compute solutions that meet the needs of various workloads, whether they involve virtual machines, containerized applications, or serverless computing.

2. Design Data Storage Solutions:

   • Explore strategies for designing data storage solutions that include relational databases, NoSQL databases, and data lakes. Learn to choose the appropriate storage solution based on the requirements of your workloads.

   • Understand data integration and processing strategies that ensure data is accessible and usable across different services and environments.

   • Develop a solid backup and disaster recovery strategy to protect your data and ensure business continuity.

3. Design Business Continuity Solutions:

   • Learn how to design solutions that ensure high availability and disaster recovery for your Azure workloads. Understand the concepts of failover, redundancy, and replication.

   • Explore the tools and techniques to design a disaster recovery plan that meets your organization’s Recovery Time Objective (RTO) and Recovery Point Objective (RPO).

4. Design Infrastructure Solutions:

   • Master the design of network solutions that connect your on-premises data centers with Azure, ensuring secure and efficient communication.

   • Learn how to design logging and monitoring solutions that provide visibility into the health and performance of your Azure infrastructure.

   • Gain insights into creating a migration strategy that minimizes disruption while moving workloads to Azure.

5. Hands-On Labs and Real-World Scenarios:

   • Apply your learning in hands-on labs that simulate real-world scenarios. Practice designing and implementing Azure infrastructure solutions, from setting up governance frameworks to architecting complex network topologies.

   • Work through case studies that reflect common challenges faced by organizations moving to Azure. These scenarios will help you understand how to apply the concepts learned in the course to actual business needs.
