Overview of cloud as the backbone of modern apps and how the course will teach Azure in a beginner friendly way.

A thorough, hands-on tour of Azure basics for beginners, centered on building and managing a VM end-to-end in a real lab, plus career context for Azure admins.

Summary

Simplilearn’s Azure Full Course (2026) walks beginners through the why and how of using Microsoft Azure in modern businesses. The instructor starts by reframing cloud as the backbone of apps, data, and services, then defines the Azure admin role, key infrastructure concepts, and how resources are organized into tenants, subscriptions, and resource groups. The course emphasizes real-world constraints like data residency, regional availability, and governance to explain why Azure’s global regions, availability zones, and SKUs matter. A substantial portion is dedicated to a practical lab: creating a Windows VM (DS-series sizing with 2 CPUs and 8 GB RAM), installing IIS, hosting a basic website, and exposing it via HTTP. The session also covers the ticket-driven workflow typical in enterprises, cost controls (on-demand versus reservations, monetary commitments, and spot pricing), and the importance of following governance and budgeting processes. Throughout, the instructor connects the lab to broader career paths—AZ-900/104 prep, 305 architecture track, and even AI/ML alignment with Azure Foundry in future learning. Learners see how to navigate the portal, use Run Command and VM monitoring, and leverage the Azure health dashboard to distinguish portal issues from tenant problems. The course closes with a social thread: attendees share their backgrounds, goals, and next-step plans, reinforcing that cloud administration blends technical chops with business awareness and ongoing learning.

Key Takeaways

  • Understanding the Azure admin role as a disciplined, ticket-driven workflow where tasks are allocated via tickets and approvals, not ad-hoc changes.
  • Knowing VM SKU decisions matter: DS-series is a general-purpose choice for lab Web servers, while other series (B, E, F) suit different workloads like cost-sensitive demos, memory-heavy apps, or CPU-intensive tasks.
  • Grasping data residency and regional strategy: data must be stored in the country/region of operation and Azure regions are organized into geographies with availability zones for reliability.
  • Gaining hands-on VM skills: create a VM in West US2 with Windows Server 2025, install IIS, configure a public HTTP endpoint, and validate site access from PC and mobile devices.
  • Appreciating cloud economics: on-demand pricing, reservations (monetary commitments), and spot pricing help control cost; Kota (quotas) can constrain/new deployments and may require escalation.
  • Mastering lab discipline: two lab anchors—1) delete resources after practice to avoid ongoing charges, 2) enable two-factor authentication and use portal health/status checks to triage issues.

Who Is This For?

Essential viewing for aspiring Azure administrators and solution architects who want a practical, hands-on grounding in VM deployment, cost governance, and real-world workflows before moving to AZ-305 or architect roles.

Hey everyone, welcome to this Azure course. Today cloud is no longer just a tech buzzword anymore. It is the backbone of how modern companies run their apps, store data, manage services, and scale their businesses. And when we talk about cloud platforms, Microsoft Azure is one of the biggest names out there. So if you want to understand how Azure works and what an Azure administrator actually does, then you are at the right place. In this course, we are going to learn Azure in a very simple and beginnerfriendly way. So here's what we'll be covering. First, we will start with the basics of cloud and Azure so you can clearly understand what Azure is and why businesses use cloud platform. Next, we will talk about the role of an Azure administrator and understand the kind of day-to-day responsibilities this role includes. Third, we will cover important Azure infrastructure concepts like virtual machines, storage, disk, networking, data centers. Fourth, we will learn how Azure resources are organized using tenants, subscription, and resource group. Next, we will understand regions, availability zones, and deployment basics. So you get a very clear idea of how Azure handles aability and reliability. We'll also talk about licensing, governance and cost control because these are very important in real business environments. And by the end of this course, you will have a strong beginnerfriendly understanding of Azure administration and how Azure is used in the real world. Also, if you are interested in learning Azure in a more structured and career focused way, we have the Microsoft Azure cloud architect masters program. This program is designed to help you build strong foundation in cloud skills through live online interactive classes, hands-on learning and content aligned to AZ900, 104 and 305. You will learn important Azure services, cloud architecture, security, cost management, and real world implementation. Along with that, you will get access to official Microsoft learn materials, class recordings, and career support to help you move forward in cloud roles with confidence. On successful completion, you will earn a program completion certificate from Microsoft and simply learn and you can also receive course completion certificate based on the Microsoft learn portal. So what are you waiting for? Hurry up and enroll now. The course link is mentioned below. Now before we get started, here's a quick quiz question for you. Which Azure component is mainly used to group related resources together? Your options are region, resource group, tenant or availability zone? Let me know your answers in the comment section below. welcome you all to job oriented Azure administration training. So what does it means now? For an example if someone ask if you are an Azure administrator what your day to day or from 9 to 5 look like. This is the very very first important understanding of the context of the whole training how your day look like and this is a very very important part for all of you to understand. Second, remember one very important part for 104 or you can say administrator role in Microsoft Azure platform that you actually do not have the free hand. When we say a free hand means need to perform a task which is assigned to you. So there is no you can say that a kind of a liberty as an Azure administrator at initial days as you get matured when you have that experience then probably you can take certain decision by your own but in a 90% cases you basically get instruction how you get instruction instruction how you execute the task and so on. So in the next 10 days that is my promise that after the 10 classes you understand each bit of Azure administration as well as you should be confident enough if you are trying for a job role change or if you're trying to get uh probably a role in any of the azure administration world. So these two question please remember and that we will discuss in the ninth or 10th class one more time to understand how much clarity you get. Yeah, it's a it's a quite different than what usually we have in a training. So before we start our formal journey on AJ 104, let me have let me have a simple question. What is Azure? Why a any customer use Azure boom in last four to 5 years? Everyone go crazy. I am going for on a zero. Okay. It's a 104 sort of. All right. So, let me have your understanding. What is Azure? Can anyone say as per your own understanding till now? What is Sumant Rohiti your input in your understanding what is Azure cloud platform. Okay very good cloud provider. Mhm. Microsoft Azure cloud looks to me cloud. Yes, exactly. Infrastructure on their own data center uh assist. That's very good. And yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. So I'm just pasting few of you. All are perfect. Fine. Sack Moan. Hey Sack, nice to see you buddy. You are also in this V to have in across tenant and storage the Yes, exactly. Provided by Microsoft. It's a B service. Mhm. I think that most of you are actually uh able to decode Azure and that's a very good news and Pass said that it's a public cloud service to manage I I I get your context all of you are fantastic and they get freedom to upscale and terminate. Exactly. Exactly. Assis. Yeah. So I actually put some of your point uh every one point is quite valid. That's a very good news. Now my question is why any customer should use Azure and why Azure boom is there in the last four and five years platform as a service. Yes. Bamit service cost efficiency sort of cost efficiency is the one of the reason why customer you know uh go for Azure CEX and OPEX Gregory Mhm. less on premises data center maintenance guy three that's very good yes exactly this is the main reason right so cost yes Azure is a cloud-based platform which provide SAS is and pass all these three service integrate with the Microsoft service mhm cost effective yes so in the nutshell high availability business continuity right so for an example I'm just putting it out here few Few of you mention cost benefit. Few of you mention cost benefit. Few of you mention high availability. You can say that business continuity. Correct. Easy management. Right. there. It's a simple management price. That good. Yes. Yes. Yes. So you can like OPEX model in a state of AEX you do not have to spend money global availability not font size is uh actually uh there is a option in the zoom when you click on the top the screen will get enlarged. Just try that. user friendly. Mhm. Perfect. All right. Okay. Now why Azure boom in last four and five years? So if all these are the benefit, please listen my question very carefully. When these are the benefit of Azure, it's not new. It's not new, right? Then why customer not opted for Azure or any cloud platform for so long a time because the cloud already present in this whole space for last 23 years. These all are the benefit which you all listed. So why customer resist? Why customer now start boarding on the cloud platform nowadays in last four to five years? What is changed all around? What is the trigger point of why Azure boom in last four and five years? security but security was there for a long time right Kaitri but ragu storage capacity was there for a last 20 years no it's nothing new cost benefit is also there for a last I can I think that 20 years Yes, that's all I that's what I am saying that these are the benefit is not new. You all agree these are not a new benefit. It was there for a quite two decade uh before this benefit is still available. So why customer not going for an Azure that is my what my question Gaitri unmute yourself. Uh hi hi so you know you know understand my question. So for example if these all are the benefit then why I as a customer I do not like to go with Azure I say 5 years back what is limiting me and what is changing now uh data is increased by the time and that could be the reason we shift to the cloud. Okay. Uh Gaitri let me ask a question to you. Nowadays if you have to uh watch a movie what you do you go to movie theater or you watch on Netflix yeah platforms prefers mostly sitting at your home correct if you have to let's say uh uh uh need something and you have to just order online so you would like to go outside and then you get the thing or you just uh prefer to order Order online by sitting at your home. Order online. Correct. Now, so why this app is now available now? Why this app is not available 10 years back? Why there is no Jumato? You know, no blinket. Why it's happening now? What is changed? Anyone guess what is change? Tech tech part is changed and no guy three. So before that what was your internet speed five 10 years back you remember? Yeah correct correct yes it is just like you know when you watch any movie it will just buffering buffering buffering correct correct. So even if I have a gumato how can you use that? Because you click jamato it will say buffering buffering buffering. Ah yes yes yes yes yes. Got you. This is the main trigger point my dear friend. Okay. So if you look at here before that you have a internet speed of 2z. 2G what has changed? Suddenly 2G is now became a 5G and even in many country the 6G is already in a process of a roll out. So when you have a fast internet availability, it powered a smart devices like phone, tablet. So when these fast internet provide or you can say boost a smart devices people like you and me what our behavior change our behavior change is that by sitting at our home we like to avail the service just like that today I and you both are connected on a Zoom platform. Can you do it 10 years back? It is almost impossible. Almost impossible. So when customer behavior are change it impact the companies. So let me give you a context. Now before that a business depend on business depend on or you can say h use app. So even 10 years back if you go to bank if you go to bank you have to stand in a queue then at the counter they ask a certain question from you and they fill the some detail. So 10 years back, 20 years back they still use application business still use application and your application depend on infrastructure. So where application is running on infrastructure and what is the best part of this approach? If application is down remember 10 years back if application is down still business function. So remember that even if the application is down still you can do certain task certain task right what is happening now it's a app who drive the business it's a app who drive the business let me have give you a very simple uh analogy behind if Uber app what you can say that a general manager a CEO can do if Uber app is down can they do anything Nothing. So remember my friend today era right now where we are sitting we call it as an appdriven world. Everyone agree agree. Yeah. So how this changing scenario trigger the adoption of Microsoft Azure or cloud platform because that is interesting that is happening at a business and consumer side. What to do with what is the relationship of the appdriven business scenario? Anything to do with Microsoft Now let's go deeper. Now we are trying to understand how number one internet power a smart device. How a smart device power a business now. So it's a appdriven business nowadays. How appdriven business is actually trigger aure adoption. I give you a sensitive information now. So for an example, if you have to use Uber or Amazon, do you need to register? Yes. Yes. And what you provide, what you provide when you register, whether you notice or not, you provide your whole personal detail. You provide your name, you provided your date of birth, you provide your address, you provide your national ID card. You provide your credit card. Do not you think this is a very very personal information? Yes. Now remember when I as a company let's say for an example I am I am a company who is based in India. Let me call myself simply learn. Today we are working in India. Tomorrow I want to open my business in France. I simply rename simply learn.fr. Who am I? India based company where I want to work in France which is a totally different country. So today India and France is a very good friend. Tomorrow tomorrow tomorrow for XY Z reason that friendship is not good. Now in Indian company simply learn have lot of data about the French citizen in the in the changing scenario. Is it possible that we can use this data to target to disrupt something to the people who already give all their information with me? Yes or no? I can or I cannot because there every information is India now in India. Correct? Correct. That is very very important to all you to understand. Now, so France said that okay dear simply learn if you want to do a business with me 10 years back you have to only obtain a business license 10 years back but now because you are doing appdriven business and your app capture a lot of data. Please remember your app capture lot of data which you do not know. For example, your IP address, for example, your device name, for example, your location. Are you aware that your app is capturing all this data as well? So France is saying that hey dear Indian company you are welcome to do a business in France but now you have to store data in France only. You cannot store this data to India data center. So what they say now data residency if you do not heard this term please now heard it's called data residency law for example GDPR in Europe simply learn say that okay so it means that if I have to do a business in France ance I have to first obtain a business license then I have to also have a data center. Please remember this is a very very important part which help you to understand how Microsoft as your trigger. So one data center I already have in uh India which I spend billion dollar to get that data center. So when we say a data center it means that it's a real estate you have to occupy a space and you know that in the real estate price nowadays is just a skyrocketing you have to hire multiple people from guard to the engineers to the managers you have to you have to purchase thousand of servers network devices and then you have to do a compliances like ISO compliance and so your invest investment in setting up a single data center can be $1 billion. So I'm just saying that similar now say that hey I have to spend $1 billion before even we start the business I have to invest $1 billion you are a businessman let me ask a question to you can you take a risk in this geopolitical scenario that you will invest $1 billion to somewhere and tomorrow for XY Z region if business doesn't I what will you do with all this investment? Does it make sense to you if you are a CEO of a company? Absolutely no. Let call us. Yes sir. Yeah buddy, you are CEO of a company. What will you do now? Absolutely not worth to spend that much money in a country and if the business doesn't boom you're nowhere. You are nowhere, right? Your investment go for a toss. Yes. Absolutely. Right. So if I come to you I'll say that hey ais hey a Microsoft okay I give you the data center on rent how much you have to pay nothing zero nothing okay so in this data center you host your service host your uh uh you can say data how much you use you just have to pay If you do not use, you do not have to pay. Which option will you go? Go with uh build your own data center or you are like to you know become my guest and to occupy some space in my data center. Which one is the most feasible option for you? Obviously option two for the business. Exactly. Everyone is agree now. Why Microsoft Azure boom suddenly? Correct. Correct. This is the main reason why dear friend why why Microsoft boom everywhere. Yeah. Sorup unmute yourself. Yeah. Hi. Hi Vin. So now now now you're telling that means Microsoft is giving the data means Azure platform for the means for the functionality of the business. But the again the question is coming for the data mean data is again storing to the Microsoft sites itself. Correct. In the in the Microsoft data center correct perfect. Yes. Yeah, but in the same country correct and this is the France requirement. But Microsoft having some different different regions where the DC is allocated. So you cannot store the data anywhere. Okay. You cannot do because one simple audit and you gone. Okay. Okay. Okay. Cannot. Right. So remember anyone of you who is in India, we have a Blackberry. Everyone remember Blackberry? I think for a few of you use what happened to the Blackberry. What happened to the Blackberry? India government demand. Hey Blackberry, you are a US company. You when you are staying in India, when you are doing a business in India, you have to set up the data center in India. You have to host your whole data in India. Blackberry belly refuse. India say pack up and go. That's how you suddenly you see that blackberry disappear from India. All their investment go for a toss. Correct. Few years back there is a big fight happened between Instagram, Twitter and government of India. Yes. Because now the every government is start demanding if you are a foreign entity you are welcome but you have to now store all the data here. Is that clear? Now why you as a customer I as a customer I have no choice if I have to go global I have to host my data into the territory where I supposed to do the business. And this is how Microsoft Azure or any cloud platform boom clear very good. So what exactly the Microsoft platform is? What is the Microsoft platform is? remember any cloud platform. Uh that is a different question Patan. So I'm just talking about why cloud infrastructure is booming. Now when I say Azure I mean to say cloud. Uh it can be AWS also. Okay. Now let's understand the global infra of a cloud. What does it means now? And that is very interesting to know. Every cloud provider they divide the whole world into manageable geography and that is very interesting to know. Now for example we have a geography called US. We have a geography called APAC. Europe. We have a geography called Middle East. and so on Africa. What is the meaning of geography? Now remember when we say that we are in Apac regime. Now you go to any country in Nepad, any country number one you find certain similarity in terms of some kind of a cultural you can say that culturally somewhere we are similar. Second, within that particular geography, usually one country will have some kind of a agreement with another country. Like in Apac region, you have sark. Have you heard this name before? Like in Europe, you have a European Union. Correct? Yes. So these are the political alliances what we call political alliances. What does it means by Yes. Yes. Yes. Perfect. what I mean by political alliances is is when let's say I am India and because of the sark political alliances I have a agreement with uh for example Sri Lanka I have agreement with some other countries okay so this agreement means as a government of one country, I am trusting the government of another So your cloud provider actually tap this political alliances. They understand that one country trust another country. How does it help? So in the US region they set up their data center in East US for an example. in west US and let's say in a central US same day in Apac they set up the data center in India they set up the data center in Singapore They set up the data center in Japan but there is no data center in Sri Lanka. There is no data center in South US. So remember when we say a data center these data center are usually called tire four data center. Let me ask a simple question to all of you. Azure, AWS, Google, you take any big name, all their data center are in Mumbai, Chennoi and somewhat in Hyderabad. But why there is no data center in Delhi, Gura and Anoida in India? Any guess why there is no data center in Delhi Gura earthquake prone area that is a very very important part that is a very very important part. So remember you cannot build a data center for a cloud in earthquake bone area that is a very very important part. Yes. Second very very important part is these data center are actually connected globally globally but if you see the globe 70% is water so it means that the internet fiber line is run through the water line so it means that each data center yes should be near coastal area and third that is of course that is uh you can say in a generic you will see the uh stability of the country correct uh the taxes how the uh taxes is there what is the compliance requirement of the country and so on so so there are a huge long checklist list why why a data center cannot be set up in certain region. So maybe southwest US is a landlock area. Maybe in the south region is earthquake prone area. We do not know. Same way if you look at that there is no data center in Sri Lanka. Possibly a stability might be one of the factor and it can be any other reason as as such. your service provider like Microsoft, like any other they set up the geography, geography. They have a reason. And then they have a data center. Now I am a customer. Just just take this word. I'm a customer. I host my data center in India and this data center is in andhi Mumbai. If you are outside India and is just like one of the downtown any big city and I host my let's say a database for an example let's say for example SQL server in this Aleri Mumbai I also have my which can be a VM running in this Anderi Mumbai and I am a e-commerce giant in India flip card it's a peak season millions of user login on my on my flipcart.com Suddenly Andhi Mumbai data center is for any XY Z reason. Fire broke out, hardware failure or it might be flooded or might be the municipal corporation of Mumbai dig the road and cut the fiber is down. Millions of users suddenly say Flipkart is offline. Anyone who is not from India, Flipkart is just like an Amazon. It's a local uh you can say e-commerce platform. So, Flipkart will go to Microsoft. Hey Microsoft, I trust you. I put all my service in your data center. Now, now you are giving me a lame excuse because of XY Z reason your data center is down. So what can I do? My business is lost. My reputation is lost. Is that good or bad? Very bad. So Microsoft said that All right. All right. All right. Do not worry I understand business is critical for you. So in the same reason in a Mumbai itself I have now three data center. Please remember it is just for your understanding. One is in Andheri Mumbai. one is in let's say a BKC band Bandra Kura complex and second is let's say for example any other region in where let's say XY Z all let's say PH PI PI Mumbai. Okay. All right. So please remember one more time. So it means that in the same reason in the same reason Mumbai Microsoft has built more than one data center and these data center are connected with each other with the very fast fiber network. very fast fiber network with the you can say that it's a very minimal latency. So Microsoft give an offer now. They say that hey customer if business is so important for you create replica of your database from more than one data center of course you have to pay price three times but in this way you get something which is called high aability. and what we called availability zone. So what you have geography region availability zone and the data center data center. Okay. Do you know AWS? Anyone of you know in this batch AWS AWS. What is that? It's a cloud service provider. Okay, hold on. So AWS will have a geography. AWS will have a reason. AWS have aity zone. AWS have a data center. Anyone know Google? What is Google? It's a cloud platform. Okay. So Google have a geography. Google have a reason. Google have ability zone. Google have a data center. Anyone know for an example bumsy cloud? Bamsy. Bamsy cloud. Anyone heard or sep cloud? No, I don't care. What is bami? Oh, it's a cloud platform. Okay. Then bamy have a geography. Bamcy have region. Bamy have ability zone. Bombs have a data center. Is that clear now? Is that clear? Any cloud any cloud exactly the same. Pankage. I am working on AWS. Okay. can I get the similar architecture there? Whatever we see similar architecture yes you will get it. Yes. So if I ask Google can he give me everyone go back to Google please and just type here Azure speed test and you get this option aure speed test.com okay and then you type AWS speed test and just look at that and just tell me are you see any difference Correct. Pank you see everything right? Asia Pacific. Asia Pacific. Correct. Now Correct. You see that uh uh Europe you will see Europe here also. So I have to say no difference. It's exactly same. Correct. And if you look at that on the left hand side you have as your reason and here also you have a reason Here you see you have availability zone. Here also you see availability zone. Is that clear to my dear friend everyone? Yeah. Yeah. So it means it means pankage if tomorrow if I ask you hey pankage can you explain me a cloud XY Z you do not have to go in detail the moment you understand it is a cloud platform just go through the same architecture. So by mistake if you learn AWS from me you will surprise that sir it is the same thing you teach me in 104 because the same architecture is there. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Very good. Nice. Yes. I hope that it's a it's a very very much clear now to all of you. Correct. So yes, yes. Very good. nice. This is just an introduction from me beginning. I hope that you understand that how the way we move forward. Now here I am drawing up the map for your learning and study. I start with week one, week two, week three, week four and week five. So week one we are going to talk mostly about a compute power that is a sava. Week two we are going to talk most about a storage service in Microsoft Azure week three which is for me it's a very important one. We're going to talk about the app service and a network service. app service and virtual network service. Week four we are going to talk about HR and DR including your load balancer. your firewall and we also going to talk about the security especially the key vault concept. Week five we are going to going to understand about how you can manage whole Azure as an administrator other way around of uh portal like your CLI your infrastructure as a code monitoring. So I am just talking about the ARM and in the final one we talked about the monitoring of so let me to write it Now week one and today and tomorrow we talked about the VM in detail in depth we go with Microsoft stories both Saturday and Sunday it's a big topic we are going to understand about an app and a network Here we talked about the high ability DR plus security. Here we talked about the infrastructure as a code like a bicep ARM plus monitoring. Yeah. Is the plan clear? You can take a note. Okay. Yeah. Very good. So can we have a quick short 5 minute break just to go to washroom come back and then we discuss about the first topic of the day that is a virtual machine. All right 5 minute just 5 minute please have your refreshment come back we're going to understand the first virtual machine before that let me give you one corporate scenario to understand why we need this service and as an administrator where your role Come. So a customer want to host its uh website on Microsoft Azure. This website is developed in HTML, Java, React.net, whatever you think this is. Now this is one of the ask of a company. They want they have a website and then they want to host it in Microsoft Azure. Now just to give you a context at this point of time in Microsoft Azure cloud platform we have a multiple service which where you can host your website. One is we call it as a server which is essentially a VM. You can hold it or store it in a a storage which is called a blob storage. You can host the website in a app service. And we also have a world where we talk about the container. You can host it in a container as well. So someone who in the role of solution design we also called them as a solution architect they first understand this requirement and then they have lot of questionnaire to ask from the customer. So for an example in generic if I am a solution architect I ask a questions by looking at this scenario. Hey customer, does your website a static or dynamic? This is a very very important questions. The moment customer say that no my website is a dynamic website means it can keep changing let's say it's a dynamic so the moment I have a clarity that the type of website which customer is looking at is uh dynamic website a storage account gone because a storage can only host a static website to drill down further. I as a c solution architect I may ask another questions. Do you need to control backend like an operating system? Because in a certain scenario customer want to deploy its own antivirus. Customer want to do hardening of the service means disable lot of services from the windows. Customer want to control the patch management and so on. Some of the compliances require it like PCI compliance. So in that case customer say that yes I need backend control then the app service gone because app service do not let you control the back end OS managed by Microsoft. Maybe to do a further isolation as a solution architect. I may ask one more question. Does your application code base or container image base? So essentially what I am asking here do you have a code or your whole code is encapsulated as a you can say that DVD image. If customer give me an answer that it is a pure codebase. I do not have anything called container image. My developer developed the code and it is now available to here the container service gone. So I mean to say someone at the top level they make this decision what exactly needed and how they do that by something which is called asking a questions a lot of ways. So when you if you if you are already enroll for 305 uh you probably understand this one when you are in that module but this is the same thing let's say for example once that uh uh requirement is clear means we are going to have an a virtual machine so a solution architect then do the second task it uh create a complete map in the sense okay I am going to create a VM which VM so they make decision. Now in Microsoft Azure we have something which is called as an S K U. You can think it like a pricing unit or in a very crude language we also call it as a family. For example, when you go to Domino, it give you three options. A small pizza, medium pizza, large pizza. And you have to select from them. So there are many families which is available. We will discuss it very shortly. But at this point of time, they decide which family. Second, they decide what should be the VM name. Third, they decide which operating system they have and in the operating system again there is a lot of things like a licensing and all come into the picture. Third, they decide which reason this VM should be run. So once the decision has been made they give you they again draft something it is called a execution flow. In the execution flow they give you a a full uh you can say that diagrammatic view. So for an example when I say this is a VM and let's say in this VM we install Windows operating system. So we have a Windows operating system in this VM and to run a website we need something called web server. So there are multiple web server available. Can anyone of you if you know the web server can put a name there? I Yes. Very good. Yes. Yes. Anything else? Apache engine. Very good. Love it. So you have for a Linux you have a Apache. You have engineix in Microsoft usually we use something called internet information server and so on. Tomcat right Tomcat. Yes. Yes. Exactly. Yeah. So top three is basically used in a Linux uh light speed also. Yes. Yes. Sometimes we use sum. because it's a windows so we prefer to use IIS. So in this we install a web server called IIS web server. That is what we are going to install inside that. Now once I get installed in this uh VM it will give me something which is called a virtual folder. Usually this virtual folder are located inside your default C drive with called inet pub and within the inet pub you will have a folder called www root. Inside that folder you put all your uh website code like you have an HTML, you have a Java, you have a Python, whatever you have, you can just put it inside that. So I put my HTML code inside here. So it means that first we have to create a VM. Inside the VM we need to install IAS. Inside the IAS we need to put my HTML, Java, Net, React any application. And then this VM will also have something which is called a public IP. This public IP can be mapped with the DNS like a GoDaddy or this public IP can be directly accessed by the user because it's a public IP. So it is accessible from outside. So any user can hit this public IP and get the website or this public IP can be also uh match with map with DNS and people hit the DNS name like a Microsoft.com and then can get the website. This all decision where I am as an administrator I am nowhere till now we do not have any idea what is going on outside. So remember this is administration. Okay. Now this all has been drafted and then you as an administrator you come to know how. So there are many method available. Few company will give you information via email. You get a formal email. ADR administrator. This is what we have to do. This is what you have to create something right. Yes. Uh one formal method. So if you are very new to microour administration we call it as a ticketing tool correct very good like Sorav has already put few names I also put that name for you better you can do a Google watch some video before going for an interview okay like service Now BMC remedy Jira Salesforce. Yes. Zera Salesforce. So anyone of you if you are very very new to this whole world this name can be yes people DevOps board also but that is more when you are in a devops as a simple administrator this is what the tool you can use okay that's why excellent now so let's say for example in in my company if I have to get this job done I will get something which is called a ticketing tool. So I will get a ticket and that using that ticket I will uh you know uh get the whole bunch of uh uh task to uh perform. So usually in the uh ticketing world someone who for whom this VM is created let's say this VM is supposed to create for my HR team. So any department like HR or you can say sales you can name it any who own the server. Uh basically they raise the ticket. Usually this ticket will come for department head for approval and from there it is come to the fin stream or you can say that your accounting team who actually create the budget how much you can spend to in this VM because Microsoft service is not free. It's a chargeable. So phop team you can say provision budget and this is a very dangerous part because once you have the budget you have to be limit inside yourself budget then it will finally come to the IT team. So you have an IT team manager. Now IT team manager then choose you or choose me as an administrator who supposed to do this task. So then the ticket assigned to you. So I mean to say if you look at that this is a full flow how this ticket will done. I just give you a sample ticket for you to visualize how it might look like. It can be different in a actual world scenario. So for an example here I'm saying that I have a ticket number let's say it's related to Azure. So I have Azure and let's say it's for HR team. So it might be an HR and then some number and probably here it say that who has request by let's say HR manager or the name of the people and then the priority of the let's say it's a high means it need an immediate action and then probability inside that it will give okay you have to give a name VM name let's say my name is BPIN so I'm saying that BPIN HR srv01 you should also have a like uh which OS so I'm saying that 2025 which is the latest one and then you probably have what is the size. So number one as per the SQU you use the any D series machine you have to give two CPU and 8 GB memory you cannot go beyond this is the limitation you have and then it also decide what the username you give so let's say HR admin and what the password you give let's say for example password at 8 1 2 3 I mean to say if you look at this whole ticket now this is how it sample look like. So anyone who is first time entering into the world of Azure administration and preparing to crack the interview remember this one because generally interviewer know that people which come from lot of training and they do not carry the experience. So someone asks can you create a VM you say yeah yeah yeah immediately I can create a VM and that is a time when you rejected you you do not understand I answer correctly why I get rejected because you try to demonstrate your knowledge and where the approach is absolutely different. So next time as an administrator if someone ask a question can you create a VM you say yes. How you create a VM in your company do not say that okay I go to the portal I do that first you say this is how I assign a ticket in the ticket it everything is mentioned and I follow the whatever is mentioned inside the ticket. Is that clear so far? Shall we go for a lab now to execute this one first then we discuss it further more detail. Yes. Very good. So, all right. I I stop my sharing now and I ask to share your screen. Ais, share your screen. Open LMS. Yes, I'm just demonstrating that. Gopal. I go a little slow. Everyone be attentive now. be on your desk. Assist. Share your screen. Open LMS. 1 minute. 1 minute. 1 minute. unmute yourself. Yeah. Everyone please ready with your LMS and just confirm in the chat if you are on an LMS. Everyone is on LMS open LMS. Uh in the LMS you see on the left hand side there is something called practice lab. Yes, everyone see the practice lab. Now there is a two rule. There is a two rule because you have please make a note of these two rule. Rule number one whatever you create during your lab that is chargeable. Simply learn give $100 worth of credit to every account. So if you once you create any service after the lab delete it. If you do not delete it what will happen? It will continue running in a background. You are not using it and end of the day you consume all $100. So next day when you open a lab it will not launch. So rule number one after the practice delete the lab. Rule number two this lab is only valid for 6 hour. After 6 hour lab will be will close you have an option to relaunch the lab again. Okay is that clear? Now practice and delete. Okay. Once you are in this. Yeah. Once you are in this, hit launch lab. Please click launch lab. Yeah. While your lab going to be launched. Now remember whether you are talking about Azure, AWS, Google or any other public site now a day it is mandatory you have to go with two factor authentication and there is something called authenticator app. Authenticator app Microsoft Just confirm that in your mobile you have a Microsoft. Ah it's buffering. It might be taking time. Every one of you have authenticator apps. Kamal you have. Mhm. G3. Yeah. Okay. By any chance if you do not have authenticator app if you do not have please download it from the if you are using Android phone from the Google store if you are using Mac from the Mac store it's called oh can you relaunch it anyone by any is able to see the lab. Yeah, just click launch. If you get an error, please try it again one more time. Okay, everyone, please try it again for one more time just to confirm if you are Rohit. Okay, now AIS is sharing the screen. Rohit uh maybe for you it's a freezing but you are able to see Rohit. Good morning sir. Morning Roy. What you see in your screen actually window is black sir. Yeah blank window is there. Ah, so Rohit, can you quickly disconnect and connect back? Disconnect the Zoom and connect back same error for you. Sujit no loaded for you. No Salman, it's for whole whole 10day journey even beyond that. Huh? Yes. Uh uh Raju that is fine. Uh it is recorded so you can do it later on. Yeah. Yeah. Perfect. Yes. So you get a username and password. This is the second screen. Yeah. Same. Okay. Very good. Now open incognito browser because you may be using your company laptop. So please everyone open incognito browser. Okay, launch it now. Incognito or private browser. If you are on a company laptop, I do suggest strongly suggest use the company browser and disconnect your VPN. Okay. Yeah. Now go back to your uh browser and type portal.io.com. portal.ajure.com. This is the website. Okay. You get a username. So please copy the username and paste. Here you have a copy button here. You get a copy button. So copy and paste. Same way the password portal.io.com. I just pasted that. Ah, perfect. Yes. Thank you. Yes. So it is after the username and password it it will ask for authenticator. So click next. You must have authenticator open in your mobile. Click next. Now scan the QR code from your authenticator app and then click next. Once it is you have to put 78. Yes. Very good. And done. So please remember if you're not able to do for any reason no worry. We are going to do it every day. Second, this session is recorded. So you can even do it later on. Okay. Hit enter. So I am able to see AIS is now log on Microsoft Azure. Just confirm how many of you are successful and login on Azure portal. Nha Bishnu Sumant. Okay. DHS Bami Biml Gopal A. Okay. Very good. Ragavendra Gorab Pass. Excellent. Thank you very much. Si not able. C3 are not able to drag it. Okay, can you stop your sharing assist for a minute? Sue can you just share your screen? Try because it is something which you have to do from your phone. Okay. Able to sign in Gopal. Anyone who has a problem, you can share your screen now. Sign in. Very good. Aar is also done. One catch. Okay. Subam gi please confirm so that we can proceed further. Wow you all are done. Sack okay. Okay okay okay please do it. I just wait for another 1 minute and then I proceed. Subam done. Uh, I will just wait another 1 minute and then I will proceed. Okay. Uh, Bin, I have the error actually on the Microsoft authenticator. What the error? It is giving to you. Uh, unexpected error. Please contact your local IT administrator to resolve the problem. My work my work account is also add actually in my mobile phone. Oh, it doesn't make because let me a scan from my mobile. Okay, share the screen. Yeah, Ahari is having a suggestion for Gaitri. Uh, try incognito mode. Done sir. Okay guys, share your screen. If you have a problem, I will scan from my authenticator. Okay. Share the screen. Wait, wait, wait. Let me do two. I have added it for you. Can you click next? But you have to fix this issues. Okay. One minute. Yeah, I've done for you. Yeah. Done. So you have a two suggestion Kaitri for next time. Number one, Ahar suggest use cognto and sep suggest use complete close the authenticator app and for the next time. Okay, not this time. This time we have done. Okay, goes. Yes, sria. All right. Very good. Yes, iswara. Congrats guys. Stop your sharing for a minute and let me go to the last participant. Iswara, share your screen, please. Where you have a problem? 1 minute is I'm just 1 minute. 1 minute. You log from two. Okay. Hi sir. Huh? Sorry. Uh I hope my screen visible. Uh here I'm getting this one. Okay. Other way to sign in. Click other way to sign in. Uh no first you close this one and open incognito window. Yeah, that was also I have open. Type portal.io.com. Copy the username. Paste here. You have a copy button. Next. Next. Next. You have authenticator app. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. I have. Okay. Next. Next. Next. Yes. So you can now I hope that is done for you right this yes then just type 54 it takes okay perfect congrats for you so every day we need to do like this only now yeah every time yes thank you thank you sir welcome yes guy three now you share your screen we I proceed with you so we are going to create a VM now guy three share your Yes. Uh yeah. So in Microsoft Azure if you have to work on any service on the top of the bar. Okay. Perfect. Mohammed. Uh on the top of the bar you have to search that service. Okay. Which service we are going to work today? virtual machine. So type virtual and you get virtual machine. Everyone able to see virtual machine when you search. Can you all confirm if you are on the same screen as Gaitri? Yes. Yes. And then you get very good. And then you get create button on the top. Hit create button create and you get virtual machine. Please create virtual machine click that. So there is a two thing which you have to remember something which we call subscription. Subscription is like you can think like a department like a sales HR and resource group is like a project within that department. So by default both are already fixed when you work in this tenant. So your subscription is always simply learn H O which is called hands-on lab and some your some number and then in the resource group drop down and you will get a default resource group which is called ODL on demand lab drop-down guy 3 OD uh resource group resource group below everyone able to see ODL Yes. Yes. Very good. Perfect. Now I scroll down and it is called VM name. You all of you remember the VM name which is given in your ticket. It's your name. So start with G3 hyphen dash give a dash HR oh I meant to say underscore huh HR perfect that's fine that's fine just HR underscore or dash give a dash only dash VM01 one it is called naming convention okay so for example when you work in HCL probably the VM name there like HCL - NOI means noa - sales - VM03 so this is how generally the naming convention people follow uh in our case we use our name then HR as a department and then VM as a 01. Okay. Now, which reason? So, this whole project we are going to execute in a West US2. Everyone please select West US2. West US2. In the availability option, in the availability option, select no availability or no infrastructure redundancy required. the first one because we only going to create a single VM in the security type drop-down and select a standard in the image drop-down and select Windows Server the latest one which is 2025 Azure edition. Can you take a screenshot guy and paste it for everyone in a chat you have to take from probably beginning if uh you know the resource group at all. So anyone who is probably late Huh? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Just scroll down. Scroll down. Little scroll down. Hold on. Ah. Till here. This is the first thing you have to maybe one if you can OS also this will be helpful. Yes. Sack. Yes. But should you? You should not. Why? Because your ticket is very clear. You have to use Windows. uh we come to uh Baswa we will explain everything first you create you have to save it probably if I'm not wrong or just try to paste control V see if it work I think it doesn't work so you may have to you know save And now share with it. So anyone who is lagging behind by any chance please select V mode. Yeah, I think Gopal has shared. Very good. Thank you Gopal. Yeah, Gopal. So it's uh now I give you responsibility. Please you share it. Okay. Yeah, I scroll down. Scroll down and look at the size. Are everyone able to see the Okay, no problem. We are just proceed to create a VM. Okay, watch it out and then probably you can see the recording. Everyone able to see the size and what the size it is showing now? D series D series 2 CPU 8 GB memory. This is what is the ticket requirement. Correct. Are you able to see the size guy 3? Below is say a standard D2S more below. Uh when you drop down when you drop down you can see more hundred of sizes which is available to us correct we will talk about the size later on but at this point of time as per the ticket 2 CPU 8 GB memory that is perfect now yes go ahead and drop down below. So in the username I usually put my username but in a ticket it is given HR admin right everyone remember. So just type HR admin and password at 1 2 3 make the P capital P A S capital P A S W O R D at the rate 1 2 3. Same below. Confirm password. Password at the rate 1 2 3. You can give any password. Gopal. Uh but usually this is what I follow. For example, you can type P A S W O R D. I delet it 1 2 3. Most of the time in Microsoft it work. Yeah. Hey mansu. I create a ticket in the uh chart. So I think that you missed that one, right? Okay, no worry. You can just follow it screen. Now can you anyone of you uh and then the inbound port and select HTTP also because we are going to host a website. You already have a RDP select HTTP also. Okay. Uh while I think that by this time you may have all this installation going on. Ahar can you go to the C drive of the server? Everyone in the meantime go back to the C drive on the server using Explorer right? Uh yes. Everyone go to C drive of the server. Open it. Huh? Open and you get inet pub. You remember my diagram? Ahar. Double click. And you get www root. All of you can you confirm if you are able to see inet pub and www root in the server bam gorup. Uh G3 you have to first install install it the IAS once it is installed then it will and it is in a server not in your local laptop. Okay. IAS is the server web server others which have the engine which can compile your code which can be HTML, Java, Python and it will render it as an JavaScript for your browser. So you can think something like that. It is a mechanism through which you can run your website. Okay. Yeah. Everyone able to see? Yeah. Got Gregory. Once you install IIS in the server C drive, you should get inet pup folder. Not on desktop. Not on desktop. In a C drive. Man, in the server C drive. And how can you come to the server C drive? In the search bars of the server. Look at that. Uh Ahar demonstrating type explorer. You will get file explorer. Okay. In the search bar of the server. uh uh no change is required man I'm just making a small change yeah okay and then when you go there come to the C drive in the C drive you should able to see inet popup folder ah that's fine that's fine inet folder and then you should see www do root folder yeah yeah yeah exactly click www root and you should able to see two file One is the HTML file and second is the PNG file. Right click the HTML file and say open with notepad. Control A delete everything whatever you have in this notepad and go back to your desktop or wherever you have saved my file. Copy the whole content and paste it back here. Save it. File. Save all. Yes. Come back to your Azure portal. Azure portal on my local desktop. Right. Uh uh 1 minute more. I'm coming back to you. No, come back to Azure portal. On the local desktop, right? Ah, yes. Azure portal where you have VM created. Copy the public IP one more Paste in the browser. Remove this some word. Aar VM. Yeah, everyone copy the public IP. If you done paste in the browser in the browser enter to the site uh not required Edit you directly copy and paste that will that is fine only used to test the website. Ahar open your mobile phone. Everyone open your mobile phone. Everyone open your mobile phone in the browser. Type the same IP and just confirm. Are you able to see the website? This all depend whether your is perfectly installed or not. Can you go back to Azar on the VM and just to see if the is installed? Oh, it's still installing. Uh, it's done. It's done. Done for you. Click close. Oh, should I click on close? Okay. All right. Done. Yeah. Installed for you now. Okay. Now can you just check that whether your IP is working go back to I hope you open HTTP port right while creating a VM you want me to type it here or no no no have you open HTTP port Azure okay can you just go back quickly to your uh Azure portal Azure portal right so I'm here and go back to VM to this VM or you want me to go to the VMs? Yeah. All right. Click the VM. How many of you are uh Okay. Few of you are seeing. Okay. Click the VM. Click the VM name. Yeah. And then you have a networking. Click networking. Left hand side. Network setting. I think by creating the Okay. Can you scroll down? Look at that. You have not open RDP port, right? I think that you missed that step. Aar. Okay, no worry. Can you just click create port rule on the top? Inbound port rule. And in the last where it say destination address 80. Delete that. on little top you see at zero delete and just make it a star this way you mean uh that's yes in the name just give anything like demo below below is the name no not here not here not here below uh just add because it's port is not open click add very good now go and refresh the website and I can do it on a mobile phone. Yes. How many of you are able to see the on your PC? Aar now you can share this on WhatsApp group to all the friend that you have done the hosting on Microsoft Azure. I'll tell them that I'm the best. Yes. How many of you are able to see it on a mobile phone? Thank you. I stop you sharing. Should I stop sharing? Thank you. Yeah. Here Rajiv. Yes. Perfect. Yeah. Yes. Manar share your screen. Everyone if you miss now I'm repeating with with Manohar. Okay. Yeah. Manar one minute. So anybody where you are 110% Rajie. Uh okay nobody. Sujit. Ah man, where are you stuck? So you are here. Okay. Now right click the is start. You have a file called is start. Right click. Look at it. I'm able to see in your No, no, no. That's fine. You are uh you are in www root and you see a file called IAS start. Uh right click. Yes. Right click this. Right click this. Uh-huh. Open with notepad. Yeah. And control a delete everything. Now uh go back to your desktop. I share one file to you man. Okay. In index html. Not here in your first you have to minimize it. Yes. Come back to your desktop. Oh, you have not. Okay. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Just click now. Click the file. It will automatically save. Click. Yeah, exactly. Now, go back to your desktop. Uh, one second, S. And now, right click this file. Oh, first you have to go to the folder where it is that. Go to the folder. Now right click this is where it is. Uh click so in folder. So in folder and just search index. Right click, open with notepad notepad. Very good. Copy everything from here. Manar, if you want to your name, you have a hold www.s.implearn.com. Change it to manoharco company.com. Uh just copy it. Go back to your server where you taken remote. Paste it file. Save it. Go back maneuver to your Azure portal. Copy public IP. Paste it in the browser. same IP you can open it in your mobile also. Okay. Yo one more you are already I think that your audio have a problem and that's done. Thank you very much. Okay. Stop your setting please. Okay. So, Sasank and uh Gopal. All right. Very good. How many of you actually enjoy this whole lab? You done? Exactly what you know the customer want. Yeah. Good sack. Excellent work. Good right. All right. So I see that few of you have a questions. So one is Sasank. Sasank I'm opening your mic now. Welcome buddy everyone. Thank you sir. So, so thanks for this very informative uh lab. So, it was very interesting. Uh second one is like uh we selected the IP provided by the uh Azure by default. Correct. Correct. And that is a dynamic IP. It means that whenever you shut down and restart that IP will change. Correct. But in uh our live environment when we into production or offices we don't use public IP address we use private IP you must not otherwise your server will hack correct now we do correct correct so in order to and second one is like uh we always uh we don't open the website with the IP address it is always with like a google.com with a name so for this two things uh one is making the public to private IP address and accessing the server with the valid uh host name. how how we can achieve that so uh number one your server in a real production world your server must not have a public IP address correct second your server must be exposed with outside world usually we use load balancer correct now right yeah yeah so your server which is running on a private IP in a real production world is exposed outside to the load balancer. Now load balancer have a two IP. One is internal which map your server, one is external which can be accessed from outside. Okay. And then this load balancer public IP that has to map with your DNS which can be a god ID. Got that? Okay. So it's quite technical even even the we have not configured the firewall for this server because we don't want any uh malicious or uh correct any unauthorized uh access should be there. So how we can prevent the server from accessing outside by that we discuss in a further module. Okay. Today we just have a introduction. But just to answer your question can we cover can we cover the IP IP address as well. Ah your networking is a full-fledged topic. You have okay thank you. Thank you very much. Gopal to uh uh you do not need to log out after 6 hour anyhow it's gone you only have to delete the service that is the only thing okay that's exactly uh new inbound port rule ah that's fine that's fine that's okay Now let's quickly understand few of the core concept before we close on the session here. We talked the SKU and the family. Now for you as an administrator for you as an administrator that is very important to understand that which SKU we have to select. SKUM means a storage keeping unit. You can say that it is a licensing terminology. So when selecting a VM, one very important part is a purpose. Very important part is a purpose. So why you are creating a VM? What type of service you are going to install? For example, I said that in my VM in my VM I am going to install SQL or Oracle means I am going to install a database. So let's say I'm going to install a SQL server. Let me ask a question to you. If you have to install uh SQL SQL uh okay so just give me one minute let me finish this then I come back to you ah that's fine man that's fine but my question is in this VM which component component use more CPU, memory, disk or a network CPU to for a database which component in your server use most? network or a disk. Okay, please remember this is very very important and interesting point uh interesting point for you to understand. So when you say that you are administrator you also have to understand you also have to understand the type of application which you are planning to use. So for an example when you say a database like a SQL, Oracle, MySQL, Postgress SQL, MySQL usually database is a store in a disk. You have a faster CPU, very faster memory, but your disk is too slow to read the data. You are running a command. Select a star from this table and it is reading, reading, reading. You have a faster CPU, faster memory. Will it work? No, it absolutely no. So you need a virtual machine which is a storage optimized. No matter you are going to create in Google, AWS, Azure, Bami cloud or ASOC cloud it doesn't matter. I simply say I need a storage optimized VM. So it means that when I am going to create a VM, I need to define what type of exactly I want a storage I want or VM. I want so Oh my god. Just give me one minute or leave it as it is. I will just ask one of you to probably share your screen later on. Okay. Second, let's say in this VM I am planning to install uh you can say that something which is image processing software like a AutoCAD. Now component in this VM utilize more? CPU, a storage or a network. It's a image processing software. Remember your image load in memory. memory. So in this server if your RAM is DDR2 and you are running it processor your image will not load. So you need memory optimized virtual machine. Let's say in this VM a backup software like net backup. This backup take the backup of all other virtual machine running in my cloud. Which component I need? which component I need which can give me remember backup means backup software means this server can take back up thousand of VM running across so which component you need faster network absolutely network because it is pulling the data through network. So you will see that I need to have a network a. So there are multiple series which is available in you can say in my Azure or all other cloud platform as well they have a different series name but every series dedicated to something else. For example in Azure we have something which is called as a B series machine. Now whenever you see a B series machine anywhere you understand that B this B series machine is the most cheap in costing cheap in costing but it is not used in production so no production actually run the B series Now for a general workload like we are creating just a simple web server. It is running in production but it is not uh utilizing any specific uh component. We have a D series You just create this series machine if you remember and it is for general purpose and then and then you have E series machine E series machine which is memory optimized. So when we want to run AutoCAD we have to take E series machine. If I want a faster CPU we have a F series machine. that is a CPU optimized. Same way when we want a storage optimized we have a L- series machine. We have a L series machine. So I just quickly ask one of you to share back your screen as fast as possible. One of you just share back your screen. Yeah. Yeah, make your uh Azure full full now. Make full uh remove uh huh very good. Now go back and create a machine again. Do not create. Just click the launch button. Yeah. Huh. Virtual machine. Create. Yes. Virtual machine. Select the resource group. Let's scroll down. Let's scroll down. Keep scrolling down. And you now scroll down. What is scroll down? You now have see all sizes. Can you click the see all sizes? So are you able to see? Now we have a few series of machine which is available for you. Few are blocked by the company policy that machine you cannot create. For example you have the you see that D series machine you have a general purpose machine right? It is the type and if you click the add a filter on the top so here let's say for example I want to see the type click type drop down drop down to type this side this side are you able to see compute optimized memory optimized storage optimized Everyone able to see now correct? Is that clear? So it means that when you get the instruction which type of machine you are supposed to create this is how you have to select Make sense? Make sense? Correct. So you have to select whether you like memory optimized machine, a storage optimized machine depend on your application work load. Correct? Yeah. Stop your sharing. Thank you Nia. So this is a day one dear friend and objective of day one number one to make you understand why you are here what exactly an Azure administrator role look like? What is this Azure platform? Why any company use Azure platform for that matter? how Microsoft organize itself in a geography, region, aability zone and a data center and to give you an idea about the very first service which virtual server. with that this is what we end now and I am calling going to call few of you at going to be a regular part of the whole session. So today I like to start with others. Hello. Hi sir. Hi others. How you summarize others today? Today actually I your background. Uh so actually I'm a experienced software engineer working in a IT company and I have around 4 years of experience and I'm basically working on uh I'm in Bosch B. So boss Bangalore. Yeah. Yeah. Bangalore. Very good. I did almost like a 10 projects in Bosch sitting in your boss office others. Very good. Yes. Please go ahead. Yeah. So basically I'm currently working in react app development and I wanted to have experience in uh cloud as well. That's why I'm learning this and today actually I joined late. So really sorry for that and I did not able to understand anything it is really enjoyable. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. So it's a good choice you know why others because number one now the development has changed from you can say that on premises to the cloud native correct and especially when you are in a front-end development your application will go and sit in the cloud use the cloud service okay for example you take Instagram right the whole Instagram develop in react only Facebook they uh develop in React only but the whole Facebook and Instagram use the cloud services like to store the data they use a storage. So this is actually a need of the time that everyone if you are a developer you have to understand cloud now today or tomorrow you are going to see that. Yeah that's a good one. Good. Yes. Now I am going to call Gaitri. Hi Ven. Hi ma'am. Yeah. So it's it's really I really enjoyed the session. So let me tell you I'm I'm an technologist and I'm having almost 3.5 years of experience. Yeah. So but I I'm a very fresh to the cloud. So I really like how you started the session from the very scratch very scratch what I was really looking for because I explored a lot of other courses and YouTube videos. it it is not exactly actually this is what the basics I want so I was so happy I was supposed to join the next month match but then I got to know that I'm a weekend working so I joined early and I really like I'm proud of my decision I really enjoy a lot everything not even a single minute you know that after a very long time good So yes, so I mean to say that now you have an idea about how your next nine session look like correct and uh what is the best part you like in this whole uh today uh just for because it's a starting but yes what is the one thing I I lab perfect yes because it's if you do then only you understand correct that is what the fun philosophy yes thanks thanks thank you Adri yes let me called Rakkes. Hi everyone. uh I am as a I am working as a Q engineer in uh with 3.5 year experience in call as with Adobe express in Adobe X project. So basically I I have a basic knowledge about the Azure so I get uh 100% understanding of uh this of this session right now. So Rakkesh uh because when you are say you are a QA what your exactly end goal let's say if if I'm said that okay Rakkesh after 3 years so what your end goal you are looking at yourself this time yeah I have to change my field first of all that's why I'm going that is what I about to suggest yes there is no feature of Q I think right for a starting You know when you have a college pass out right and to a start QA testing is good one right but uh when you want to see that no your salary should be one lakh or something then uh you need to change your field so far yeah welcome others thank you very much yes I am saying bumsy Hello. Yeah. Hi. So mean. Yeah. I have what around 15 years of experience overall. So I was a DBA then a Linux admin. Um then been part of automation with transible and stuff. Now I'm leading a team of uh I'm an infra manager uh leading a team of cloud team just wanted to understand how assume works and stuff. So I'm just trying to expand my knowledge so that you can control your uh much better right uh more more of a knowledge thing you know I'm more of a Linux guy my background was totally different I I kind of know how Azure works but I have not had hands-on or worked or learned it properly so I thought I'll expand my knowledge here so Okay. That's good one. Good one. So, how you like the session today? Bam. Uh, it's interactive. Nice. Good. Going good. I I'm able to understand. Sorry. Okay. Very good. Bye-bye. Thanks. Nha. Yeah. Hi everyone. Hi Vin. So yes, I enjoyed the session and I also enjoyed the lab. The other thing is I am working as a uh big data and GCP engineer. So I have around 6.5 years of experience and yeah and I started uh with the you know big data tools and technologies and then we moved to cloud. So like when we like moved to cloud we you know migrated some you know uh things from Hadoop to uh BigQuery. So now like in the bitquery people you know have uh some knowledge of the cloud uh but you know like I am totally new to Azure and you know even I want to you know start from the beginning so I you know opt for this um sessions and you know for this live training so yeah so since you are starting from like everything from scratch so I'm able to grasp the things very you know quickly and I think I would be a good you know learner in some more days I have that confidence. That was a you know nice session from your side. Yeah. Soha if I ask you that after having a knowledge of ha call herself let's say in the next 3 to 5 years so what your ultimate goal or role yeah because you are in a already in a you know the most demanding field of the IT correct data science is something which is close to the business correct correct correct So you think about your own role and destination. Okay. Because you have a cloud experience after some time and you already have a data science uh you know the expertise. For example, I usually call myself if you go my LinkedIn profile to check uh uh I call myself as a data architect. Whether it is on premises or whether it is on cloud I can design solution around data science around AI and uh even as a general data when you talk about so you can think something about your role as such because it's a good time and probably when you you know target that particular role it will give you the edge. Got it. Yeah. Sure. Sure. Yeah. Yeah. Perfect. Yes. So, anyone I think that Hey, are we safe? Have we sec? All right. So, yeah, thanks for unmuting, Vipin. Uh, all right. So, I I have a question. uh bipin uh uh but before since everyone is introducing I'll I'll give a quick introduction about myself so I'm a 204 uh computer science graduate I'm working uh as a senior manager leading uh IT operational teams uh I have uh I have done I mean earlier in my earlier role I was working as a project manager I am a PMP and a scrum master certified lean six sigma green build certified Right. I also did uh yes and and I did uh uh my RHSCA in the initial phases and then uh I decided to uh move to the project management side. So as a newbie I kept on jumping here and there hopping here from there and then uh uh I got a chance to uh work for u uh uh some esteem organizations like uh HPN Philips healthcare. So I was I I worked there when I was working there as project manager I worked for uh uh two projects where uh I I I was leading the uh project for migration that was from data center to cloud. So I got to know cloud uh since then only I mean uh back to two or three years back Philips you talking about? Yeah Philips healthcare. M so I I work there uh and I and I lead project for migration from data center to cloud for their customers. So I got to know about uh cloud although they were on uh AWS and at that time I did the AWS foundational as well but uh I have completely uh I completely washed out with the uh with the uh concept what whatever I got to learn there. I just have some blur uh uh learning. So I decided that I'll go through the Azure now. So uh I'm doing uh this uh admin and I have also enrolled for the architect uh course the 305. So now I decided so I thought that I'll move from I will move out from the uh management role the operational part and I'll work as an individual contributor instead of leading a team. I do not mind leading a team but you know it's always pressure for when when you lead a team. So I thought that I'll be an individual contributor now and I'll I will work as a architect. So I thought that I'll go through the ar then uh uh AWS and then I'll uh go to uh GCPS. Yes, absolutely. That's my plan because yes you have to plan your career because I I'm also in the same page with you right it's almost like a 30 years I am in this industry uh but you know I say after 5 years 7 years back uh I am in the same phase right uh that how should we treat my career uh in the going further so it's a good decision because why so since you became architect this is the highest role okay if you say from a degree point of view and it after some point of time people will start recognizing you by your name abishek and once that recognition come to you abishek uh money will follow you like anything correct end of the day when you are on your 50 or 60 you you want that you should uh earn money by sitting at your home right just by giving advice and consulting so it's a good decision and I strongly advise now you if you are on good this path catch this path hold this. No, I'm not going to drop this decision. Bin, I I'll stick to this when I'm and sometimes you know the current financial burden will force you that no you should stick to the you know but I I recommend you that you take a little risk come out from your uh your own known jone and it's a good decision and if you need any out of the box help abishek uh I am here you just connect with me outside and I will give you to you. Sure thing. Uh yeah I was when you mention about my question was when you mention about your LinkedIn profile uh I do not see your LinkedIn link uh Bin I would love to uh be no problem you know spelling of my name if you can see from the chat window I have just everyone if you want to know about who am I whom you are interacting with just put my name in a Google simple bipin sa and you get about my profile my credential my board. Perfect. Thanks uh Dash. I saw that you have already pasted the profile link. Thank you so much. All right. So, you all are welcome. You all are a part of my family. Just connect with me anytime for any advice like to work with me also I welcome you. Thanks. Gopal. Uh hi Bin. Hi. Hi. So yeah, right now like uh I'm also currently work it's been like eight years now in the IT industry and right now I'm in the techn working as a services engineer uh and uh I would like to like for today's session if I have to say I really like the session uh basically more on the labs uh and uh I would like to know like tell you that uh I'm also kind of same uh it's been eight years now in this technical support so I would love to change the domain now. So how uh is it uh the decision bipin to right now Gopal I think you are already late right you should change the domain much before that but yes it's a good decision you have to now move as per the 8 years uh Gopal uh you have to spend maybe another two to three years in some kind of a cloud portfolio okay and then you quickly jump towards the architect role or a pre-sale role architect or a pre-sale role if you want to justify your uh time which you have spent in the IT versus what your uh you know the pay package which you are going to get plus your own personal credibility in the market. Yeah. So administration part you already which company I'm not sure uh which company you work uh SLK I'm working in right now. SLK SLK Bangalore right? SLK. So SLK is one of the prime consumer of uh Microsoft right there more the platform are in a Microsoft only. You take Sharepoint, you take Azure, you take uh system center, everything is uh uh SharePoint. You call yourself uh Kopal for outside world that you are an Azure administrator since use the Microsoft Azure you can justify yourself. Okay. Okay, this is your first action. Okay, maybe you can make your whatever the regime or something in the basis of that you are an administrator and then you try to switch either internally uh if you need my help to call your some of your SLK management I am ready to do that otherwise you can try yourself to move towards to inside the Azure management team. Okay, perfect. spend another two years and then try to switch to the pre-sale or uh you can say uh architect role try take partner role like you know sonata software uh comparex you can take uh software one do not try in company try in partners okay so after the completion of this program so I can try right you can take yes as an azure admin as you told right yes you just start calling yourself Azure admin And after 10 classes that is my promise I will give you that experience. Okay. Sure. Sure. For knowledge you have to read for knowledge you have to work but for experience point of view that is what I can translate my experience to you. Sure. Absolutely. Correct. Yeah. Thank you. Yeah. Welcome Sep. Yes sir. That's yes. Yeah. Sep. Yes. Hi Vin. Hi everyone. Uh hi my name is Sep and I'm also like having experience of around uh six plus or seven years uh in the same field not exactly like in the cloud or in the infrastructure but I've been into like operations and as initially you said like we do not have like our say in it and we have to like follow the tickets right. So that's what I have been doing uh for my career and uh so right now I'm working with Innova solutions and I'm here managing a small team uh I'm a team lead over there uh and uh so uh I've been like working on this operations like uh managing like uh throughout the um um like on boarding offboarding and all those kind of like kind of like technical support but my role is uh into like IT infrastructure ure and operation though I do not have like any kind of like uh visibility to infrastructure and that's what I'm here to gain uh I'm more interested into architect and to be honest like uh uh I I just want to like switch my career and I hope this will help and that's the reason I'm here and uh I really like the lab sessions uh the way you are like calling each one of us and like providing us this uh hands-on And that's what I'm like looking for. Perfectly. So, uh just one tips. In fact, I'm not sure if you are already enrolled for 305 or…
