What you will learn

  • Design durable identity, least privilege, and dependency-complete recovery.
  • Use measured objectives and reviewable evidence to maintain decisions.
  1. Messaging, delivery, and durable business identity

    Choose Service Bus, Event Grid, or Event Hubs from the communication contract. Separate acceptance, delivery, processing, settlement, ordering, and idempotent effects.

  2. Workload identity, secrets, and layered security

    Build a narrow trust path between an application and its dependencies. Separate managed identity, role assignment, secret lifecycle, network access, encryption, and application permission.

  3. Reliability objectives and disaster recovery

    Translate business recovery needs into time, data-loss, dependency, and authority requirements. Evaluate a complete restoration path instead of treating replication or backup status as sufficient proof.

  4. Capacity, latency, and performance evidence

    Connect demand, bottlenecks, quotas, scaling delay, and cost accountability to a complete workload. Use synthetic queue arithmetic while keeping measured Azure performance explicitly unclaimed.

  5. Azure architecture decisions and defensible tradeoffs

    Build an architecture decision record from business constraints, quality attributes, alternatives, and evidence. Make Azure service choices revisable without treating a score or diagram as proof.

  6. Operational ownership, change, and release evidence

    Connect governance, telemetry, safe change, incident response, and recovery into one workload lifecycle. Report what is known and untested without treating a successful control-plane operation as complete health.
