Description
Chapters in this book correspond directly to the exam skills outline and are delivered in a "from-the-ground-up" approach, allowing you to build your knowledge as you go. This approach serves to help even novice developers get up to speed quickly, while allowing more experienced developers to find the exact topics and scenarios they need to hone their skill sets as they both prepare for the exam and reference information for real-world solutions.
As you work through each chapter, you will get an introduction to the topic of the chapter followed by a comprehensive discovery of the key elements of the Azure service(s) being covered. You'll be guided through solutions by studying typical, real-world scenarios. Each chapter concludes with review questions to solidify your learning and includes links to the corresponding Microsoft Learn modules that are relevant to the concepts in the chapter and associated with each section of the AZ-204 exam.
