AZ-101: Azure Administrator, Integration and Security Training & Certification Course
Overview
AZ-101: Azure Administrator, Integration, and Security Certification Course teaches IT, professionals: How to discover, assess, plan, and implement a migration of on-premises resources and infrastructure to Azure. Students will learn how to use Azure Migrate to perform the discovery and assessment phase that is critical to a successful migration. Students will also learn how to use Azure Site Recovery for performing the actual migration of workloads to Azure. The course focuses primarily on using ASR on a Hyper-V infrastructure to prepare and complete the migration process. In addition, students learn about other scenarios, such as migration of VMware vSphere Hypervisor virtual machines and System Center VMM Hyper-V machines.
How to manage and maintain the infrastructure for the core web apps and services that developers build and deploy. Students will learn how Azure App Service is used as a Platform as a Service (PaaS) offering for deploying cloud apps for web and mobile environments. Students will learn how to use App Service Environments (ASE) to host a dedicated environment for securing and running App Service apps at scale. Students will also learn how to use deployment slots as staging environments for web apps, that can then be swapped into production when needed. Azure Administrator, Integration, and Security Certification Course also teaches students how to scale up and scale out to meet and adjust for demand, and how bandwidth for web traffic can be optimized using Application Gateways and Content Delivery Networks (CDN). Lastly, the course provides students with an overview of serverless computing solutions, including Azure Functions, Event Grid, Service Bus, and Logic Apps.
Who Should Attend
Azure Administrator, Integration and Security Certification Course is for Azure Administrators. Azure Administrators manage the cloud services that span storage, networking, and compute cloud capabilities, with a deep understanding of each service across the full IT lifecycle. They take end-user requests for new cloud applications and make recommendations on services to use for optimal performance and scale, as well as provision, size, monitor and adjust as appropriate. This role requires communicating and coordinating with vendors. Azure Administrators use the Azure Portal and as they become more proficient they use PowerShell and the Command Line Interface.

You will also learn how to use the ASR deployment planner to ensure your infrastructure is ready for migration. Lastly, you will walk through the process of implementing ASR on a Hyper-V infrastructure.
Lessons
- Overview of ASR
- Preparing the Infrastructure
- Completing the Migration Process
Module 3: Additional Migration Scenarios
In this module, you will complete your study of Azure migration by looking at two different migration scenarios. In the first scenario, you will see how to migrate VMware vSphere Hypervisor virtual machines to Azure using ASR. In the second video series, we will migrate System Center VMM Hyper-V machines.
Lessons
- VMWare Migration
- System Center VMM Migration: Video Walkthrough
AZ-101T2: Implementing and Managing Application Services
