Designing Microsoft Azure Infrastructure Solutions (AZ-305)

This course teaches Azure Solution Architects how to design infrastructure solutions.

Course topics cover governance, compute, application architecture, storage, data integration, authentication, networks, business continuity, and migrations.

The course combines lecture with case studies to demonstrate basic architect design principles.

• Azure Active Directory
• Azure compute technologies such as VMs, containers and serverless solutions
• Azure virtual networking to include load balancers
• Azure Storage technologies (unstructured and databases)
• General application design concepts such as messaging and high availability

Recommended prerequisites:

• M-AZ104 - Microsoft Azure Administrator (AZ-104)

• Design a governance solution.
• Design a compute solution.
• Design an application architecture.

Successful students have experience and knowledge in IT operations, including networking, virtualization, identity, security, business continuity, disaster recovery, data platforms, and governance.

Students also have experience designing and architecting solutions.
