Developing Solutions for Microsoft Azure (AZ-204) Zelfstudiepakket

Algemene omschrijving

In dit zelfstudiepakket zit het officiële cursusmateriaal, een labomgeving, MeasureUp-oefenexamen en een Microsoft-examenvoucher. Je hebt 180 dagen toegang tot de labomgeving.

Deze training leert ontwikkelaars hoe ze end-to-end oplossingen in Microsoft Azure kunnen maken. In deze training leer je de volgende taken uit te voeren:

• Azure Compute-oplossingen implementeren.
• Azure Functions maken.
• Webapplicaties implementeren en beheren.
• Oplossingen ontwikkelen met gebruik van Azure Storage.
• Authenticatie en autorisatie implementeren.
• Oplossingen beveiligen met behulp van KeyVault en Managed Identities.

Cursisten leren ook hoe ze met Azure en diensten van een derde partij kunnen verbinden en deze gebruiken, en gebeurtenis- en berichtgebaseerde modellen in hun oplossingen gebruiken. Deze training behandelt ook het monitoren, oplossen van problemen en het optimaliseren van Azure-oplossingen.

Doelgroep

Cursisten voor deze training zijn geïnteresseerd in ontwikkeling op het gebied van Azure of willen het Microsoft Certified: Azure Developer Associate-certificaat behalen.

Voorkennis

Om deze training met succes te kunnen volgen, is het volgende nodig:

• Praktijkervaring met Azure IaaS- en PaaS-oplossingen, en het Azure Portal.
• Gemiddelde ervaring in het programmeren in een van de door Azure ondersteunde talen: (C#, JavaScript, Python, of Java).
• Code kunnen schrijven waarmee verbinding gemaakt kan worden, en opdrachten kunnen worden uitgevoerd, met een SQL- of non-SQL-product (SQL Server, Oracle, MongoDB, Cassandra, of vergelijkbaar).
• Gemiddelde ervaring in het schrijven van code met betrekking tot authenticatie, autorisatie, en andere beveiligingsgerelateerde zaken.
• Een algemeen begrip van HTML, het HTTP-protocol en REST API-interfaces.
