What is inside

5 modules, 20 lessons. Each module ends in a graded quiz.

1. 01

   Identity, Governance, and Monitoring by Design

   Covers the AZ-305 domain Design identity, governance, and monitoring solutions, which carries about 27 percent of the exam. You will design the Azure Monitor data platform and its workspace, collection, alerting, and retention decisions, then design authentication with Microsoft Entra ID, authorization across Azure and hybrid estates, and the governance hierarchy that holds it all together. Every lesson works through original scenarios and exam style checks that reward picking the narrowest mechanism that satisfies the requirement.

2. 02

   Designing Azure Data Storage Solutions

   Covers the AZ-305 domain Design data storage solutions, which carries about 22 percent of the exam, from selecting a relational engine and service tier through protecting it, storing unstructured and semi structured data, and building the integration and analytics layer above it. You will learn to read a requirement sentence and map it to the correct Azure data service, redundancy option, and tier without over engineering the result. The module closes on the pipeline, governance, and cost decisions that separate a working prototype from a production data platform.

3. 03

   Business Continuity, Backup, and High Availability

   Covers the AZ-305 domain Design business continuity solutions, which carries about 17 percent of the exam. You will learn to turn recovery point and recovery time objectives into concrete Azure designs, to select backup and recovery services for virtual machines, containers, databases, and unstructured data, and to build high availability across compute and data tiers using availability zones, multi region topologies, and the right traffic distribution service. Every topic is taught the way the exam asks it, as a design choice you must defend against stated requirements and constraints.

4. 04

   Compute and Application Architecture

   Covers the AZ-305 objective for designing infrastructure solutions across compute and application architecture, which carries about 16 percent of the exam alongside the rest of the infrastructure design domain. You will learn to select between virtual machines, containers, and serverless hosting from workload constraints, design batch and scheduled processing that finishes inside its window, and choose correctly among Service Bus, Event Hubs, Event Grid, and Storage queues. The module closes with the application layer that ties services together, including API Management, caching, configuration and secrets, and automated deployment.

5. 05

   Network Design and Cloud Migration

   Covers the AZ-305 objective for designing infrastructure solutions across network solutions and migrations, which carries about 17 percent of the exam. You will learn to plan address space and hybrid connectivity, then secure and accelerate traffic with private endpoints, segmentation, edge services, and a monitoring plan that proves the design works. The module closes with load balancing and routing decisions and with migration planning under the Cloud Adoption Framework, from discovery and rationalization through cutover, landing zones, and post migration optimization.
