What you'll learn:
- Understanding of Azure cloud Components which is required to build AVD Infrastructure and various objectives for the exam AZ-140
- Design and Deploy Azure Cloud and Azure Virtual Desktop Services
- Implementation of FSlogix Solution(profile Container, Cloudcache, Appmasking etc.)
- Azure Backup and disaster recovery for Azure Virtual desktop
- Securing Azure Virtual Desktop
- Monitor and troubleshoot Azure Virtual Desktop
In this Course you will learn about how to plan, design, implement and monitor Azure cloud services and Azure Virtual Desktop Infrastructure.
This Course does not require prior azure knowledge and we will cover from the basics of azure to deploy the AVD Infrastructure
This training course is a combination of Azure Architect (AZ-305) and AZ-140 where I have included topics from Azure compute, network, storage and Identity and Access management as well as Azure Virtual Desktop so such mix and match you would not find anywhere.
All concepts covered in this course are aligned to the following Exam Objectives
Plan an Azure Virtual Desktop Architecture
Implement an Azure Virtual Desktop Infrastructure
Manage Access and Security
Manage User Environments and Apps
Monitor and Maintain an Azure Virtual Desktop Infrastructure
In this course, you will learn about below Azure cloud and Azure Virtual Desktop services .
