LAB OVERVIEW
Azure Lab

Azure Enterprise Practice Lab (AZ-104 / AZ-305)

Identity, networking, governance and design scenarios for enterprise architecture readiness.

An Azure enterprise lab built to cover the operational skills of Azure Administrator Associate (AZ-104) and the design thinking of Azure Solutions Architect Expert (AZ-305). Practice identity (RBAC), networking (VNets/NSG), governance (Policy), monitoring, backup, and design drills such as landing zones, resilience and cost controls—structured as tasks with verification and rationale.

What you get
  • Task pack covering identity, networking, governance and monitoring
  • Verification checklists for each task (what to test, what to capture)
  • Design drills with trade-offs: security vs usability vs cost
  • Templates: architecture note, change note, validation checklist
  • Optional mock Q&A mapping key keywords from AZ-104/AZ-305
Lab scenarios
  • RBAC access problems: identify assignment scope and fix least privilege
  • VNet segmentation drill: NSG rules, route behavior, and connectivity checks
  • Policy enforcement: deny vs audit vs deployIfNotExists trade-offs
  • Backup and recovery drill: verify restore workflow and RPO expectations
  • Monitoring triage: choose signals, build an alert that’s not noisy
  • Landing zone reasoning: subscription layout, resource groups, governance
How it works

Create a clean resource layout and baseline identity/networking.

Add Policy/RBAC/monitoring with verification evidence.

Make architecture decisions and justify them under constraints.

Capture outputs and write short, professional design/change notes.
Access & environment
  • Browser-friendly guide + clear checkpoints
  • Tasks designed to be repeatable and easy to reset
  • Documentation templates for interviews and project use
  • Pairs well with an AZ-104/AZ-305 question bank
Prerequisites
  • Basic Azure concepts (resource groups, subscriptions)
  • Comfortable with networking and access control basics
  • Willingness to validate using a checklist
Outcomes
  • Faster Azure troubleshooting and admin workflow (AZ-104 style)
  • Better architecture reasoning and trade-off explanation (AZ-305 style)
  • Reusable governance and landing-zone patterns
  • Confidence discussing Azure solutions in interviews
