Module 1: Implement Solutions that use Virtual Machines
Students will learn how to properly plan for VM deployment. It covers VM creation by using the Azure Portal, PowerShell, and through code. It also covers creating and using ARM templates for repeatable deployments and how to use Azure Disk Encryption to secure information on the VM.
Module 2: Implement Batch Jobs by using Azure Batch Services
Azure Batch creates and manages a pool of compute nodes (virtual machines), installs the applications you want to run, and schedules jobs to run on the nodes.
Module 3: Create Containerized Solutions
You can build and run modern, portable, microservices-based applications that benefit from Kubernetes orchestrating and managing the availability of those application components. Kubernetes supports both stateless and stateful applications as teams progress through the adoption of microservices-based applications.
Module 4: Create App Service Web Apps
Azure App Service Web Apps (or just Web Apps) is a service for hosting web applications, REST APIs, and mobile back ends. Web Apps not only adds the power of Microsoft Azure to your application, such as security, load balancing, autoscaling, and automated management.
Module 5: Creating Azure App Service Mobile Apps
The Mobile Apps feature of Azure App Service gives enterprise developers and system integrators a mobile-application development platform that's highly scalable and globally available.
Module 6: Create Azure App Service API apps
This module covers how to create and document an Azure App Service API.
Module 7: Implement Azure Functions
Azure Functions is a solution for easily running small pieces of code, or 'functions,' in the cloud. You can write just the code you need for the problem at hand, without worrying about a whole application or the infrastructure to run it.
Module 8: Develop Solutions that use Azure Table Storage
