Why Choose This Course
Why this course matters: organisations in Melbourne and across Australia continue to migrate and modernise workloads on Azure. That creates strong demand for administrators who can operate secure, cost-effective, and resilient cloud platforms. This course gives you structured practice with the Azure portal, CLI, PowerShell and templates, so you can standardise deployments, apply governance, and troubleshoot issues confidently. You’ll work through identity and access management, network connectivity, backup and recovery, and monitoring, all mapped to how Azure administrators work in real environments.
Across four days, expect focused labs and practical guidance on virtual networks, load balancing and traffic management, storage options and data protection, virtual machines and scale sets, containers and web apps, as well as alerts, logging, and insights to keep services healthy. The coverage is broad but pragmatic, with scenarios that help you apply best practices for security, performance, and cost optimisation. By the end, you will understand how to operate Azure at scale using policies, RBAC, tagging, and infrastructure-as-code approaches, and you’ll be well placed to continue towards certification. A certificate of course attendance is included.
