Why Choose This Course

AZ-204T00: Developing Solutions for Microsoft Azure is an instructor-led training course designed for software developers who want to build, deploy, and maintain cloud applications using Microsoft Azure. Aligned with the Microsoft Certified: Azure Developer Associate certification, this course provides practical experience developing modern cloud-native applications using Azure services, security features, storage solutions, and application integration technologies.

As organisations continue adopting cloud-first strategies, developers need the skills to create scalable, secure, and high-performing applications that leverage the full capabilities of Microsoft Azure. This course helps participants develop the knowledge required to design, build, test, deploy, and monitor cloud-based solutions in real-world environments.

Participants learn how to implement Azure compute solutions using Azure App Service, Azure Functions, and serverless architectures. The course also explores container-based application development using Azure Container Registry, Azure Container Instances, and Azure Container Apps, helping developers build flexible and scalable cloud-native applications.

Data storage and management form a key part of the training. Learners gain practical experience working with Azure Storage services, Blob Storage, and Azure Cosmos DB to support secure, responsive, and highly available applications. The course demonstrates how Azure data services help organisations manage modern application workloads efficiently.

Security is integrated throughout the curriculum, with participants learning how to implement authentication and authorisation using Microsoft Entra ID, manage secrets using Azure Key Vault, and secure application configurations. These skills help developers build applications that meet modern security and compliance requirements.

The course also covers application integration and messaging services, including Azure Event Grid, Azure Event Hubs, and Azure Service Bus. Participants learn how to create event-driven and loosely coupled architectures that support complex business processes and scalable application designs.

Monitoring and performance optimisation are explored using Azure Monitor and Application Insights. Participants learn how to collect telemetry, monitor application health, diagnose issues, and improve performance to deliver reliable user experiences.

Hands-on labs and practical exercises reinforce learning throughout the course, allowing participants to work with Azure services, development tools, APIs, SDKs, and deployment techniques used in modern cloud development projects.

This course is ideal for Software Developers, Application Developers, Full-Stack Developers, Cloud Developers, DevOps Engineers, Solution Developers, Technical Consultants, and IT professionals responsible for building and supporting Microsoft Azure applications. Training is available across Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth, and Canberra, as well as through live online delivery throughout Australia. A Certificate of Attendance is included upon completion.
