Description
Deploying and Managing Azure Virtual Machines is a 3-hour demo-heavy course that's designed to be the "next step" for those who have completed my AZ-900 course, entitled "AZ-900 Exam Prep: Microsoft Azure Fundamentals". However, it's also a fantastic course on its own - and it teaches the student how to deploy and manage Azure virtual machines using the Azure portal.
While it's been designed as a next step for those who have taken my own AZ-900 course, this course serves as a fantastic complement to really any other AZ-900 course you may have taken, as well. As a matter of fact, this course also helps students prepare for the AZ-103 and AZ-104 exam as well.
