Machine Learning Engineer
During the intensive training sessions with our instructors, you will work with the official Microsoft course materials.
In this course,experts will learn how to leverage Azure’s hybrid capabilities, migrate virtual and physical server workloads to Azure IaaS, and secure Azure VMs running Windows Server, as well as how to perform tasks related to high availability, troubleshooting, and disaster recovery. Management tools and technologies such as Windows Admin Center, PowerShell, Azure Arc, Azure Automation update management, Microsoft Defender for Identity, Azure Security Center, Azure Migrate, and Azure Monitor are introduced.
1. Protecting on-premises and hybrid Windows Server infrastructures
Learn how to protect your on-premises Windows Server resources and your Azure IaaS workloads. Identify whether these resources pose security risks and address those potential security risks.
2. Implementing High Availability for Windows Server
Learn how to use Hyper-V Replica, Windows Server Failover Clustering, and High Availability for Windows Server File Servers to implement high-availability workloads for virtual Windows Server machines (Virtual Machines, VMs).
3. Implementing disaster recovery in on-premises and hybrid Windows Server environments
Here, you’ll learn how to use Hyper-V Replica to create a cost-effective BCDR solution for a virtual environment. You’ll also learn how to implement Azure Site Recovery for on-premises scenarios and protect your Azure infrastructure.
4. Migrating servers and workloads in on-premises and hybrid environments
Learn how to migrate a workload running on Windows Server to a virtual IaaS (Infrastructure-as-a-Service) VM and to Windows Server using Windows Server migration tools or Storage Migration Service.
5. Monitoring and Troubleshooting Issues in Windows Server Environments
Here, you’ll learn how to use monitoring and troubleshooting tools, related processes, and best practices to optimize the application performance and availability of your Windows Server environment, as well as your Windows Server IaaS VMs and hybrid instances.
Requirements:

- Basic knowledge in dealing with Azure Active Directory
- Practical experience with Windows client operating systems such as Windows 10 or Windows 11
- Basic experience with Windows PowerShell
An understanding of the following concepts related to Windows Server technologies:
- High availability and disaster recovery
- Automation
- Monitoring
- Troubleshooting
- Hardening the security configuration of the Windows Server operating system environment Improving hybrid security with the help of Azure Security Center, Azure Sentinel and Windows Update Management
- Apply security features to protect critical resources
- Implementing solutions for high availability and disaster recovery
- Implementing recovery services in hybrid scenarios
- Planning and implementing hybrid and pure cloud migration, backup and recovery scenarios
- Carrying out upgrades and migrations in relation to AD DS and storage
- Manage and monitor hybrid scenarios with WAC, Azure Arc, Azure Automation and Azure Monitor
- Implement service and performance monitoring and apply troubleshooting
This course consists of training training and is led by a trainer who supervises the participants live. Theory and practice are taught with live demonstrations and practical exercises. The video conferencing software Zoom is used.
This intensive training course will prepare you for:
- Exam: "AZ-801: Configuring Windows Server Hybrid Advanced Services" for the second and final step of the
- Certification: "Microsoft Certified: Windows Server Hybrid Administrator Associate"
This four-day course is designed for Windows Server hybrid administrators who have experience with Windows Server and want to expand the capabilities of their on-premises environments by combining on-premises and hybrid technologies.
Windows Server hybrid administrators who are already implementing and managing on-premises core technologies want to secure and protect their environments, migrate virtual and physical workloads to Azure IaaS, deploy a highly available, fully redundant environment, and perform monitoring and troubleshooting.
