Welcome to this course.

Fully captioned in English. Spanish captions being added.

This course has been continually improved and covers the AZ-204 Azure developer topics.

Microsoft Azure is a skill in high demand in today's large business marketplace.

If you're a developer, you know as well as I do that change is always happening. It's not possible for all of us to be up-to-date on every piece of new technology out there, but this is not one of those times. Cloud-hosting has changed the way all applications are developed—from websites, to web applications, to mobile apps, and traditional backend applications as well. The rapid adoption of the cloud has touched everything. 

The next time your resume is on someone's desk—be it a promotion at work or a new job opportunity—you cannot afford to have such an obvious gap in knowledge. Can you imagine being a front-end web developer today and not being able to talk about mobile-first or responsive design? Industry trends show that developing applications that have cloud-hosted components is becoming the in-demand skill of tomorrow. Having Azure skills on your resume will only help you get in front of more hiring managers, and land more jobs.

This course goes through all of the requirements of the Microsoft exam AZ-204: Developing Solutions for Microsoft Azure exam. While other online resources cover bits and pieces of the topic, I can confidently say this course goes deep on everything you need to know for this exam. Multiple videos are devoted to each sub-objective, and this course also includes a full sample test so you can see how ready you are to take the real test.

If you don't have much previous exposure to Azure, this course will cover each core section in detail. If you ARE already an expert at many Azure topics, you can easily skip the sections that you already know and focus on the sections that are new to you.

This Azure exam is tough. But these videos will guide you through the Azure interface, and through your own practice and experience with the platform.

You get lifetime access to the course, and so there are no silly "30-day" countdowns that require you to pay more to extend access. This course will be here when you need it.

I've taken other courses from Scott before and they are always great, well-paced, and full of rich content! At the time of taking this course, Azure had updated a few things, which is expected, but I can always go back to the video of the component or service I am trying to work on and the videos will make it easy to understand and review. Keep the courses coming, Scott!!

Hi there, my name is Scott Duffy. And I love making complex technical topics easy to understand. 

    This has been the basis of my entire career – as a developer, as a development manager, as a software architect – over the past 20 years. I spend half my time in the world of business, explaining complex technical topics to business owners and stakeholders so that they can understand and agree with my approach to solving their business problems with technical solutions. And the other half with developers, explaining the business reasons behind decisions and ensuring that any decisions made on the technical side don't restrict the business in unexpected ways. 

    And I'm here on Udemy to teach what I know in an approachable way. I started teaching courses in 2014, and have taught over 460,000 students. I am grateful every day with being able to connect with so many students in almost every country around the world.

    I'm a certified Enterprise Architect and certified cloud architect. I have been developing with Microsoft technologies for 20 years, starting with Classic ASP, and all the versions of .NET. We now live in the cloud era, with Microsoft Azure being prevalent in most large enterprises. I'm certified as an Azure Architect and Developer too. As well as AWS Solution Architect Associate (SAA).

    Certified as an MCT by Microsoft.
