Microsoft Azure AZ-204 Certification Courses

The Microsoft AZ-204 Exam, Developing Solutions for Microsoft Azure is an essential certification for any developer working with Azure.

The exam itself covers a wide range of topics including developing Azure compute solutions, developing for Azure storage, implementing Azure security, monitoring, troubleshooting and optimising Azure as well as connecting to Azure services and service provided by third parties.

Now as with all Microsoft certifications, there are a lot of resources available online to help you with your learning but did you know that Pluralsight have specialised content that focuses precisely on this exam?

This new certification prep path, which you can find here takes you from start to finish and covers everything you need to know. The courses in this path are short, usually only 30 minutes or so long and focus in on specific exam objectives.

I’ve recently published a couple of courses in this path:

The Microsoft Azure Developer: Develop an App Service Logic App course looks at how to develop an App Service Logic App and targets these exam objectives:

• Create a Logic App

• Create a custom connector for Logic Apps

• Create a custom template for Logic Apps

The Microsoft Azure Developer: Integrate Caching and Content Delivery course looks at how to integrate caching and content delivery within solutions and focuses on these objectives:

• Develop code to implement CDNs in solutions

• Configure cache and expiration policies for FrontDoor, CDNs, or Redis caches

• Store and retrieve data in Azure Redis cache

Now these courses are not going to guarantee that you actually pass the exam but I think it’s certainly going to offer you everything you need to succeed so if your studying for the exam, or thinking of taking it in the future then check them out.
