A region is a geographical area with data centers delivering low-latency services. Region pairs replicate resources across geography to boost resilience and disaster recovery.
Describe availability zones as three or more physically separate locations within an Azure region, each with independent power, cooling, and networking, connected by private fiber to ensure resiliency.
learn to install the Azure CLI on Windows, run it from PowerShell or a bash-like shell, and manage Azure resources with interactive mode, creating and listing resource groups.
Resolve a JSON deployment issue by demonstrating real-time creation of a resource group, location, and storage via a deployment template.
Explore blob storage types and replication options in Azure, including lrs, zrs, grs, and ra-grs, to understand durability, accessibility, and disaster recovery for block blob and file storage.
Azure blob storage stores unstructured data as objects in containers, offering block, page, and append blobs, with private or public access and hot, cool, or archive tiers.
Learn how to manage Azure blob storage access with policies and access levels, configure start and expiration times, and understand pricing, data transfer, replication, and tiering.
Learn how to set up Azure vnet peering between France and UK, configure virtual networks, firewall settings, and test connectivity with ping across VMs.
Master Azure Backup by provisioning a Recovery Services vault, configuring backup for virtual machines, installing the backup agent, and managing restore and disaster recovery workflows.
Demonstrate that virtual machines across three subnets within the same network automatically communicate via system routes, even with firewalls temporarily disabled, using ping to verify connectivity.
Learn to create an Azure load balancer, configure a backend address pool, health probe, and zone-redundant public IPs, and attach virtual machines with security rules for port 80.
