Microsoft AZ-304 Certification: Azure Architect Design

Welcome to the Skylines Academy AZ-304 certification course!

The AZ-304 course is intended for IT engineers and architects who have previous experience of Microsoft Azure. Since Azure services were released, there have been several additions and updates to the platform that will be explored in this course. In order for you to achieve success and pass the AZ-304 exam, this Skylines Academy course will guide you through a series of sections, lectures, demonstrations, and hands-on labs, alongside other helpful study material. We have got you covered!

During this course, you will gain knowledge and hands-on experience of:

• Design Logging and Monitoring solutions such as Log Analytics, Network Watcher and Security Center

• Implement Cost Optimization for your environment

• Design Compute such as Virtual Machines for Windows and Linux

• Design and Manage Storage Accounts

• Deploy Automation and Configure Resources

• Implement Azure AD and PIM

• Design and Manage Hybrid Identities

• Configure Cloud Infrastructure Monitoring

• Design and Manage Governance Solutions

• Design Load Balancing and Network Security

• Design for High Availability

• Architect Security for Applications

• Design an Application Infrastructure

• Design Container-based Applications

• Design Data Platforms like Azure SQL and CosmosDB

• Design a solution for Backup and Recovery with Azure Backup and ASR

• Design Migrations using Azure Migrate

  
  

  Lectures will educate you on the fundamental terms and principles of the Azure platform and demos will enable you with a hands-on experience using scenarios to empower you in the real world.

Note: If you took the AZ-303 course, there will be some overlap. There is a lot to repeat around subjects covered in AZ-303 to make sure you have the basis on core technologies that align with the curriculum. Where possible, I try to make the distinction but you will find that we need to cover core infrastructure topics again before moving onto design elements. Feel free to ignore these videos if you took my AZ-303 course, or watch them again for a good refresh before taking your AZ-304 exam. I continue to update this course based on design examples so you can try to take your hands on knowledge and think about it from an architecture perspective.
