This course is for Azure Administrators. Azure Administrators manage the cloud services that
span storage, networking, and compute cloud capabilities, with a deep understanding of each
service across the full IT lifecycle. They take end-user requests for new cloud applications and
make recommendations on services to use for optimal performance and scale, as well as
provision, size, monitor and adjust as appropriate. This role requires communicating and
coordinating with vendors. Azure Administrators use the Azure Portal and as they become
more proficient they use PowerShell and the Command Line Interface.
