0:00:07.480000 --> 0:00:13.360000
 Hi, welcome to this INE On Demand course,
 Azure Administration Compute

0:00:13.360000 --> 0:00:17.520000
 Management. This course is aligned with
 the Microsoft Certification Exam

0:00:17.520000 --> 0:00:24.400000
 AZ-104 for the Microsoft Certified
 Azure Administrator Associate.

0:00:24.400000 --> 0:00:27.820000
 Now, even if you're not planning on
 taking the exam, this course does

0:00:27.820000 --> 0:00:32.360000
 give, if I might say so, good coverage
 of your compute options in Azure.

0:00:32.360000 --> 0:00:36.140000
 And if you are prepping for the exam,
 then I think we've got some pretty

0:00:36.140000 --> 0:00:38.400000
 good preparation material here.

0:00:38.400000 --> 0:00:42.160000
 I'm Tracy Wallace and I am your
 instructor for this course.

0:00:42.160000 --> 0:00:47.520000
 I am an Azure Solutions Architect Expert
 as well as an Azure Administrator

0:00:47.520000 --> 0:00:50.360000
 Associate and a few other
 things as well.

0:00:50.360000 --> 0:00:54.200000
 I've been doing this for a long time
 and the more these intros I do and

0:00:54.200000 --> 0:00:57.460000
 say that, the less I want to say how
 many years, but it's been a while.

0:00:57.460000 --> 0:01:02.300000
 And I will tell you, I've been
 working with Azure since 2009.

0:01:02.300000 --> 0:01:05.300000
 I've been an instructor for
 much longer than that.

0:01:05.300000 --> 0:01:09.820000
 If you want to reach out and get in
 touch with me, you see my contact

0:01:09.820000 --> 0:01:14.120000
 information there, both or all three
 of email and Twitter, you can follow

0:01:14.120000 --> 0:01:16.520000
 me there or you can
 connect on LinkedIn.

0:01:16.520000 --> 0:01:20.240000
 Now, what I want to do is talk a little
 bit about what's in this course.

0:01:20.240000 --> 0:01:26.160000
 I really like this course for compute
 because I think it really combines

0:01:26.160000 --> 0:01:31.720000
 the three major compute options, big
 picture within the Azure environment.

0:01:31.720000 --> 0:01:33.720000
 We start out looking
 at virtual machines.

0:01:33.720000 --> 0:01:36.800000
 This is infrastructure as a service
 and we're going to talk about what

0:01:36.800000 --> 0:01:40.580000
 virtual machines are, what your management
 options are, how you can update

0:01:40.580000 --> 0:01:43.320000
 them, set them up,
 automate them, etc.

0:01:43.320000 --> 0:01:49.100000
 Then we take a step up to the platform
 level where we look at Azure App

0:01:49.100000 --> 0:01:50.420000
 Service Management.

0:01:50.420000 --> 0:01:51.960000
 What is an app service?

0:01:51.960000 --> 0:01:52.640000
 What does it do?

0:01:52.640000 --> 0:01:54.020000
 Why would we choose it?

0:01:54.020000 --> 0:01:57.820000
 How do we administer that
 or how do we manage it?

0:01:57.820000 --> 0:02:02.400000
 And then the final topic, I think, is
 really of critical importance for

0:02:02.400000 --> 0:02:07.040000
 any cloud implementation and
 that is container management.

0:02:07.040000 --> 0:02:12.260000
 What containers are and what the options
 are, both at the infrastructure

0:02:12.260000 --> 0:02:14.460000
 level as well as the
 platform level.

0:02:14.460000 --> 0:02:17.480000
 And I'd actually kind of throw
 in what I call quasi platform.

0:02:17.480000 --> 0:02:20.120000
 It's kind of platform, but
 really infrastructure.

0:02:20.120000 --> 0:02:22.400000
 But we're going to talk about those
 different options that we have and

0:02:22.400000 --> 0:02:27.660000
 how you can use that to really optimize your
 deployment in the Azure environment.

0:02:27.660000 --> 0:02:32.020000
 All right, now, as I mentioned, this
 course does align with the AZ-104

0:02:32.020000 --> 0:02:34.660000
 certification exam.

0:02:34.660000 --> 0:02:37.540000
 Again, if you're not taking that exam
 or don't plan to, I still think

0:02:37.540000 --> 0:02:39.980000
 there's good content
 in here for you.

0:02:39.980000 --> 0:02:42.460000
 But if you are planning to take the
 exam, I think you'll find that this

0:02:42.460000 --> 0:02:47.100000
 aligns well with the deploy and manage
 Azure compute resources objective

0:02:47.100000 --> 0:02:52.620000
 domain. Speaking of which, let's
 go down through that briefly.

0:02:52.620000 --> 0:02:56.680000
 So the Microsoft Certified Azure Administrator
 Associate, this objective

0:02:56.680000 --> 0:03:01.600000
 domain includes high availability for virtual
 machines, automating deployment,

0:03:01.600000 --> 0:03:08.240000
 focusing on ARM templates, which is extremely
 important, as well as script

0:03:08.240000 --> 0:03:12.740000
 extensions looking at the basic process
 of creating and configuring virtual

0:03:12.740000 --> 0:03:17.420000
 machines, things like disk encryption,
 movement, adding disk, managing

0:03:17.420000 --> 0:03:19.100000
 disks, redeploying them.

0:03:19.100000 --> 0:03:21.540000
 Then we get into containers.

0:03:21.540000 --> 0:03:26.300000
 And specifically, we'll talk about Azure
 Kubernetes services, what that

0:03:26.300000 --> 0:03:28.380000
 is and why you care.

0:03:28.380000 --> 0:03:32.760000
 And we're also going to take a look
 at Azure Container instances.

0:03:32.760000 --> 0:03:39.320000
 And finally, we'll take a look at or
 included in the exam our web apps.

0:03:39.320000 --> 0:03:42.520000
 Looking at app services, what they are,
 how to create them and configure

0:03:42.520000 --> 0:03:46.980000
 them, as well as how to create and
 configure Azure service plans.

0:03:46.980000 --> 0:03:51.760000
 So all of these topics are covered within
 this exam, within this course,

0:03:51.760000 --> 0:03:53.560000
 excuse me, and the exam.

0:03:53.560000 --> 0:03:57.980000
 As far as prerequisites, as far as
 being able to take this course, it

0:03:57.980000 --> 0:04:02.520000
 is recommended, I recommend that you
 are familiar with the fundamentals

0:04:02.520000 --> 0:04:04.180000
 of Azure. What is Azure?

0:04:04.180000 --> 0:04:05.180000
 What are subscriptions?

0:04:05.180000 --> 0:04:06.120000
 How do you connect to Azure?

0:04:06.120000 --> 0:04:08.660000
 How do you manage it
 in the big picture?

0:04:08.660000 --> 0:04:12.000000
 If you are not familiar with Azure,
 if you just kind of bumped into this

0:04:12.000000 --> 0:04:14.560000
 course, well, first of all, I'd like
 to say thank you for doing that.

0:04:14.560000 --> 0:04:16.660000
 But also, you may want
 to take a step back.

0:04:16.660000 --> 0:04:19.720000
 We have a complete learning
 path for Azure fundamentals.

0:04:19.720000 --> 0:04:24.280000
 Also, if you're on the AZ-104 or the
 Azure administrator learning path,

0:04:24.280000 --> 0:04:27.400000
 you'll notice in the prerequisites, we
 have a couple of Azure fundamental

0:04:27.400000 --> 0:04:30.620000
 courses that are available
 for you to take beforehand.

0:04:30.620000 --> 0:04:34.860000
 So thank you for jumping in on this
 and I hope you enjoy it and I hope

0:04:34.860000 --> 0:04:36.360000
 you get what you need
 out of this course.
