This hands-on Azure training covers how to implement Application Insights into your ASP.NET web app with Visual Studio, how to integrate a single page application (SPA) to Application Insights, and how to implement Application Insights web tests and alerts. Optimizing and troubleshooting are among the most difficult things to learn because you need to know how every component works with every other component in the system. Luckily, Microsoft developed some tools to help you monitor, troubleshoot, and optimize your Azure applications.

FAQs

What will you learn in this Azure Monitoring, Troubleshooting, and Optimizing course?

This Azure Monitoring, Troubleshooting, and Optimizing course covers not only generic techniques for optimizing cloud services but also how to make the most of Microsoft's built-in tools for troubleshooting Azure operations specifically. Azure comes equipped with Azure Monitor, Application Insights, and other testing and monitoring tools that a cloud engineer should know. But there are also general skills like deploying content delivery networks and scaling cloud operations that you'll learn.

Why should you take this Azure Monitoring, Troubleshooting, and Optimizing training?

You should take this Azure Monitoring, Troubleshooting, and Optimizing because the ability to identify problems and resolve them is a skill that differentiates novice cloud technicians from highly experienced experts. Many cloud technicians can deploy an Azure instance and configure parts of it. But the ability to monitor Azure operations, spot misconfigurations or problems, and optimize them is much more rare. After this course, you can be that advanced cloud engineer.

Is this Azure Monitoring, Troubleshooting, and Optimizing course associated with a certification?

Yes, this Azure Monitoring, Troubleshooting, and Optimizing course can help prepare you to take the AZ-204 and earn the Microsoft Certified: Azure Developer Associate. This course alone won't prepare you to earn the Azure Developer Associate cert, but after this training, you will be prepared for the "monitor, troubleshoot and optimize Azure solutions" portion of the AZ-204 certifying exam.

Are the AZ-204 test and Microsoft Certified: Azure Developer Associate certification still valid?

Yes, both the Microsoft Certified: Azure Developer Associate and its certifying exam AZ-204 are still valid. Microsoft has issued occasional updates to the content of the AZ-204, but those have almost all been minor changes and not substantive.

Is learning to monitor, troubleshoot and optimize Azure worth it?

Yes, it's definitely worth it to learn how to monitor, troubleshoot and optimize Azure. This training in particular is worth it because it can lead to earning the Azure Developer Associate. Industry certifications are strong indications of expertise. In the case of this course, it could mean knowing how to double the efficiency of a mission-critical cloud compute application and halve its costs. Bosses tend to like that sort of thing.

Who is this for?

This Monitor Troubleshoot and Optimize Azure training is considered engineer-level Microsoft training, which means it was designed for Azure developers. This troubleshooting and optimizing Azure skills course is designed for developers or cloud engineers with three to five years of experience with Azure infrastructure.
