- Identify the Azure infrastructure as a service (IaaS) and platform as a service (PaaS) resources and services available for Linux deployments.
- Determine which virtual machine images will be most suitable for your IaaS deployment.
- Identify Microsoft-supported Linux distributions.
- Identify additional Azure tools and services you can use.
Module 3: Learn about standards and practices for planning, deploying, managing, and optimizing Linux VMs in Azure.
- Plan the network environment and sizing of Microsoft Azure virtual machines (VMs) running Linux.
- Apply established best practices for deploying and configuring Linux on Azure VMs.
- Optimize your Linux environment on Azure VMs for performance and functionality.
Module 4: Learn about different methods of provisioning Linux virtual machines in Microsoft Azure.
After completing this module, you'll be able to:
- Provision a Linux virtual machine (VM) by using the Azure portal.
- Provision an Azure VM running Linux by using the Azure CLI.
- Provision an Azure VM running Linux by using Hashicorp Terraform.
- Provision an Azure VM running Linux by using Bicep.
Module 5: Use generative AI in Azure Database for PostgreSQL.
- Examine the concepts of generative AI and large language models and explore how they can be used to build rich AI applications.
- Evaluate the capabilities of azure_ai extension for PostgreSQL.
- Install and explore the azure_ai extension in an Azure Database for PostgreSQL - Flexible Server database.
