Exam AZ-700 Designing and Implementing Microsoft Azure Networking Solutions (Video)

Description

This video course will prepare you for the Designing and Implementing Microsoft Azure Networking Solutions exam.

The AZ-700 exam, also known as "Designing and Implementing Microsoft Azure Networking Solutions," is aimed at professionals who design and implement networking solutions in Azure. The exam covers several critical areas essential for Azure networking professionals. It includes designing, implementing, and managing hybrid networking solutions such as site-to-site VPN connections, ExpressRoute, and virtual WAN architecture. The exam also focuses on designing and implementing core networking infrastructure, including virtual networks, private IP addressing, and name resolution. Routing is another significant topic, with emphasis on using Azure Load Balancer, Azure Application Gateway, and Azure Front Door. Additionally, the exam covers securing and monitoring networks through network security groups (NSGs), Azure Firewall, and network performance monitoring. Lastly, it addresses designing and implementing private access to Azure services using private endpoints, service endpoints, and Azure Private Link. These topics ensure a comprehensive understanding of Azure networking solutions, from core infrastructure to security and monitoring.

This course follows Microsofts study guide for the AZ-700 exam. Each video in the course covers a topic outlined on the exam. Networking is a critical part of any organizations cloud infrastructure. This exam and video course highlights designing, implementing, and securing that core connectivity.
