It’s crucial to keep learning the latest cloud technology skills if you want to stay competitive in your field. Whether it’s a network at risk from an outside threat, data being improperly backed up, or a problem debugging an app, you’re on the front line of maintaining your company’s bottom line. Our series of role-based Azure Skills Navigator guides are designed to help you explore and develop these abilities, and we’re thrilled to announce the release of new guides for Network Engineers, Backup and Disaster Recovery (BDR), and Java.
| Network Engineers | Train yourself to recommend, plan, and implement Azure networking solutions, including hybrid networking, connectivity, routing, security, and private access to Azure services. Start your networking journey in the cloud by understanding the basic tenets of Azure networking, how to configure hybrid connections, and manage the solutions for performance, resiliency, scale, and security. |
| Backup and Disaster Recovery | Explore why centrally managed backup for on-premises and cloud data is best for reducing the management burden and costs of a BDR infrastructure while also optimizing the speed and reliability of backup and data-recovery operations. Next, dive into the Azure backup architecture and learn how to design your backup and recovery solution and then configure, deploy, and troubleshoot your BDR solution. |
| Java | Discover the host of reasons why developers prefer building Java applications in Azure, from the ability to build, debug, and deploy Java applications using their favorite development environments, to quickly adding services and capabilities and integrating them with other apps and services in the Microsoft partner ecosystem. And not least of all, the productivity bonus of not having to manage infrastructure during development. |
Additional curated guides to strengthen your Azure expertise
Each guide is carefully curated with downloadable digital training, videos, certifications, and more, and is streamlined so you get the maximum result in the minimum amount of time.
