Designing and Implementing Microsoft Azure Networking Solutions: 3 Days Workshop

NETCOM LEARNING

In this course, you learn how to design and implement a secure, reliable, network infrastructure in Azure and how to establish hybrid connectivity, routing, private access to Azure services.

This Designing and Implementing Microsoft Azure Networking Solutions course teaches Network Engineers how to design, implement, and maintain Azure networking solutions. This Designing and Implementing Microsoft Azure Networking Solutions training covers the process of designing, implementing, and managing core Azure networking infrastructure, Hybrid Networking connections, load balancing traffic, network routing, private access to Azure services, network security and monitoring.

Target Audience

• This course is for Network Engineers looking to specialize in Azure networking solutions. An Azure Network engineer designs and implements core Azure networking infrastructure, hybrid networking connections, load balance traffic, network routing, private access to Azure services, network security and monitoring. The azure network engineer will manage networking solutions for optimal performance, resiliency, scale, and security.
