Course Overview
This five-day FastTrack course (AZ800 and AZ801) is designed for IT professionals who configure advanced Windows Server services using on-premises, hybrid, and cloud technologies. These professionals manage and support an infrastructure that includes on-premises and Windows Server-based workloads hosted on Azure IaaS. The course teaches IT professionals how to leverage Azure's hybrid capabilities, migrate virtual and physical server workloads to Azure IaaS, and manage and secure Azure VMs with Windows Server. The course also covers performing tasks related to high availability, troubleshooting, and disaster recovery. The course highlights various administrative tools and technologies, including Windows Admin Center, PowerShell, Azure Arc, Azure Automation Update Management, Microsoft Defender for Identity, Azure Security Center, Azure Migrate, and Azure Monitor.
Who should attend
This five-day course is designed for Windows Server Hybrid administrators who already have experience with Windows Server and want to extend the capabilities of their on-premises environments by combining on-premises and hybrid technologies. Windows Server Hybrid administrators who already implement and manage on-premises core technologies will want to secure and protect their environments, migrate virtual and physical workloads to Azure Iaas, enable a highly available, fully redundant environment, and perform monitoring and troubleshooting.
