This Azure Administrator course prepares you for the AZ-104 Microsoft Azure Administrator certification exam. The Microsoft Certified Azure Administrator Associate is one of the most in-demand cloud certifications, validating your skills in implementing, managing, and monitoring Azure environments.
What does an Azure Administrator do? A Microsoft Azure Administrator implements, manages, and monitors identity, governance, storage, compute, and virtual networks in a cloud environment. You’ll work with the Azure Administrator Portal, PowerShell, Azure CLI, and ARM templates to manage infrastructure.
The AZ-104 Microsoft Azure Administrator exam consists of 40-60 questions with 120 minutes of testing time. The passing score is 700 on a scale of 1000. The exam costs $165 USD and can include multiple choice, case studies, drag-and-drop, and hands-on lab scenarios.
This Azure Administrator training covers all five exam domains: Manage Azure identities and governance (15-20%), Implement and manage storage (15-20%), Deploy and manage Azure compute resources (20-25%), Configure and manage virtual networking (25-30%), and Monitor and back up Azure resources (10-15%).
What’s the Azure Administrator salary? Entry-level MS Azure Administrator positions start around $68K-$89K annually. Experienced Azure Administrators earn $97K-$148K, with senior roles at top companies reaching $162K+. The Azure Administrator certification significantly boosts your earning potential for Azure Administrator jobs.
This Azure Administrator Associate course requires no formal prerequisites, but we recommend having 6+ months of hands-on Azure experience or completing AZ-900 Azure Fundamentals first. Knowledge of PowerShell, CLI, and basic networking concepts will accelerate your learning in this Azure Administration training.
