Azure Mastery Course

Microsoft Azure is Microsoft's cloud platform, and this course covers the parts you will actually use. Learn identity with Microsoft Entra ID, networking, compute from App Service to Container Apps and Kubernetes, storage and databases, messaging, infrastructure as code with Bicep, delivery with GitHub Actions, and how to keep it all secure, observable and affordable. It also covers the older services and patterns still running in real estates, so you can read, maintain and migrate what is already there.
