Synopsis "Implementing Microsoft Azure Architect Technologies: Az-303 Exam Prep and Beyond: A Guide to Preparing for the Az-303 Microsoft Azure Architect Technologies Certification Exam, 2nd Edition"
Become a certified Azure Architect and learn how to design effective solutions that span compute, security, networking, and developmentKey FeaturesDiscover how you can design and architect powerful and cost-effective solutions on Microsoft AzurePrepare to achieve AZ-303 certification with the help of mock tests and practice questionsEnhance your computing, networking, storage, and security skills to design modern cloud-based solutionsBook DescriptionFrom designing solutions on Azure to configuring and managing virtual networks, the AZ-303 certification validates your knowledge and skills for all this and much more. Whether you want to take the certification exam or gain hands-on experience in administering, developing, and architecting Azure solutions, this study guide will help you get started. Divided into four modules, this book systematically takes you through the wide range of concepts and features covered in the AZ-303 exam. The first module demonstrates how to implement and monitor infrastructure. You'll develop the skills required to deploy and manage core Azure components such as virtual machines, networking, storage, and Active Directory (AD). As you progress, you'll build on that knowledge and learn how to create resilient and secure applications before moving on to working with web apps, functions, and containers. The final module will get you up to speed with data platforms such as SQL and Cosmos DB, including how to configure the different high availability options. Finally, you'll solve mock tests and assess yourself with the answers provided to get ready to take the exam with confidence. By the end of this book, you'll have learned the concepts and techniques you need to know to prepare for the AZ-303 exam and design effective solutions on Microsoft Azure.What you will learnManage Azure subscriptions and resourcesEnsure governance and compliance with policies, roles, and blueprintsBuild, migrate, and protect servers in AzureConfigure, monitor, and troubleshoot virtual networksManage Azure AD and implement multi-factor authenticationConfigure hybrid integration with Azure AD ConnectFind out how you can monitor costs, performance, and securityDevelop solutions that use Cosmos DB and Azure SQL DatabaseWho this book is forThis book is for solution architects and experienced developers who advise stakeholders and translate business requirements into secure, scalable, and reliable solutions.
