Overview
This course provides experienced IT professionals with the advanced skills required to design robust, scalable, and secure infrastructure solutions on the Microsoft Azure platform. Moving beyond implementation, this curriculum focuses on the critical thinking and decision-making processes involved in translating complex business requirements into well-architected technical designs. Students will dive deep into a wide range of Azure services, learning how to evaluate and select the optimal components for solutions that balance performance, security, cost, and resiliency. The course emphasizes architectural best practices across the core pillars of Azure, including identity, governance, compute, networking, storage, and security, preparing you to design solutions that meet the strategic goals of any organization. The primary objective of this course is to equip students with the expertise to design comprehensive Azure solutions. Throughout the modules, you will learn to design for governance and identity using Azure Active Directory and policy enforcement. You will master the design of business continuity strategies, including high availability, disaster recovery, backup, and archiving. Key learning outcomes also include architecting infrastructure solutions for compute, networking, and application services, as well as designing modern data platform solutions and creating holistic strategies for logging and monitoring. Ultimately, this course is designed to prepare you for the AZ-305 certification exam, validating your skills and enabling you to earn the prestigious Microsoft Certified: Azure Solutions Architect Expert certification. This course is intended for experienced Azure administrators, cloud engineers, and IT professionals who have significant hands-on experience in implementing and managing Azure resources. The ideal candidate has a deep understanding of core Azure services, including virtualization, networking, identity, security, and storage. While not a strict prerequisite, candidates will benefit greatly from holding the Microsoft Certified: Azure Administrator Associate (AZ-104) certification or possessing equivalent knowledge. This course is the definitive next step for professionals looking to transition from an operational or implementation role to a strategic, architectural focus, empowering them to lead cloud adoption and design cutting-edge solutions within the Azure ecosystem.

Common questions students ask about
- •A global e-commerce company is planning to migrate its three-tier web application to Azure. The primary design goals are to achieve high availability with disaster recovery capabilities across two Azure regions (e.g., East US and West Europe), ensure low-latency access for a global user base, and secure the application from common web exploits. The application consists of a web front-end, an application logic tier, and a relational database backend. Propose a comprehensive Azure infrastructure solution that meets these requirements, explaining the role and justification for each selected component.
- •A global financial services company is planning a hybrid cloud strategy. They need to connect their on-premises data center to Azure to migrate mission-critical, multi-tier applications. The requirements for this connection are stringent: it must support sustained throughput greater than 5 Gbps, offer low and predictable latency for database replication, provide a private and highly secure path that does not traverse the public internet, and be backed by a high-availability SLA. While cost is a factor, performance, security, and reliability are the primary drivers for the solution. As an Azure Solutions Architect, what hybrid connectivity solution would you recommend, and why? Justify your choice by comparing it against the main alternative.
