Architecting Microsoft Azure Solutions

## Beskrivelse

OBS! Microsoft har valgt at lade dette kursus inkl. tilhørende test udgå til fordel for nye Azure-kurser, som er mere målrettet til hhv. administration, udvikling og arkitektur. Kurset og tilhørende test udgår helt fra Microsofts sortiment 31. december 2018. Derfor afholder SuperUsers fra 1. december 2018 fremover de nye Azure-kurser. Dette kursus bliver afløst af følgende to Azure arkitektur-kurser: AZ-300 - Microsoft Azure Architect Technologies AZ-301 - Microsoft Azure Architect Design

Kurserne forbereder dig yderligere til de nye tests, som giver certificeringen Azure Solutions Architect Expert.

Efter dette kursus vil deltageren kunne:

• Beskrive Azure arkitektur komponenter, herunder infrastruktur, værktøjer og portaler.

• Oprette og implementer Azure Resource Manager (ARM) skabeloner til forskellige alsidige løsninger.

• Sammenlign forskellige infrastrukturer, serverless, database og kommunikationstjenester; sÃ¥som App Services, Virtual Machine Scale Sets, Azure Cosmos DB, SQL Database og Container Service i Azure.

• Inkorporere forskellige Azure platformtjenester, sÃ¥som Cognitive Services og Media Services, i en samlet Azure-løsning.

• Opsætte sikre monitorerings- og backupløsninger implementeret i Azure.

• Oprette automatiserede DevOps-løsninger ved hjælp af en kombination af ARM-skabeloner, konfigurationsstyrings-værktøjer, Azure CLI og Cloud Shell.
