I cant tell how much you contribute to the community who want to take the Microsoft exams. No BS, no paid ad, no self- commercial, pure support. Those kind of videos are so rare nowaday. Please take a big thank from me sir

Excellent tips, resources and delivery towards an optimal and successful exam prep. Thank you!

Hey Tavis. thats great to hear from you and it is very much helpful that you explained very well starting from choosing the right certification among different and the path to parepare and concluded about what steps need to take on the exam day.Thank you very much.

Great tips, Travis.Thank you. I'm preparing to enter the cloud field and I appreciate those precious tips.

Thank you for this video! Super helpful, will be applying these this year.

Thanks for this Travis! Very helpful info!

I always love your content, always. The advise you give is so invaluable. Keep doing it.

Thank you Travis, very helpful info. I have struggled with knowing what to study. This lays out a great plan. Going to use it now.

Most detailed and informative video I’ve seen on KZread regarding the Azure Cloud exams. Thanks Travis! Going to be taking my DP-203 exam soon and this was super helpful

Thank you so much for the tips and the resources!

Awesome video @Tavis Media, thanks for the sharing your exam cert prep

💕Thank you so much for breaking down the pathway for beginners. I appreciate your time and commitment to teaching us.

Thanks for this video! It's really really helpful!

Awesome tips! Nailed every detail! Really appreciated! 🙏

This is good. I wanted to focus on AWS but this actually makes a more clearer plan

Thanks a lot Travis for the great tips 😊

Very useful tips and straight to the point. Thanks!

Hey Travis, love the videos. I taught myself how to code after 30 and successfully changed careers into web development. I am now planning to pivot into a DA path and will be looking into some of the azure certifications. Great video, thanks!

Very amazing and informative, thanks for sharing ♥

Thank you for creating such an informative video. It has made it much easier for me to understand where to begin, and I feel confident about starting now.

I know it's silly, but I really like Travis' voice. It makes it easy to watch his videos from start to end, and I'm always looking forward to the next one!

Open book is a great idea and might sound like a cheat code, but don't be fooled. You won't have much time to do research on the spot during the exam - you get 50-60+ complex, scenario based questions and some labs (+/- for each exam), but such volume simply eliminates any chance of you showing up unprepared and passing. I studied for 2 weeks for my AZ800, open book concept was already introduced and I had 0 time to search around for answers. Failed twice, studied more, then passed.

Thank you, very helpful

Its a great tips. Thank you!.

Very informative Video!...Thank you.

thank you. it really helps me.

Thanks for sharing!

Great Explanation Thanks

great video, thanks for your good advice

Did not quite see the value with MS learn before watching this video, always tend to forget how good MS documentation actually is. Your recommendation for using it together with your training is such a good recommendation, I am using it daily myself now.

Thank you Travis. Amazing explanation. Love from India.👍👍

excelent last 3 tips!

I did not know about the open book - that's awesome. I'm taking AZ-104 soon and feel like I understand the concepts fine but was worried about remembering stuff like Powershell commands, SKU offerings etc. This really takes that pressure off, and it makes sense because in the realy world no one needs to know all that off by heart

@TravisMedia

Yeah it was new to me prior to this video. Though if you are going to use the docs for a few things, be sure to know exactly where to find it as there won't be any added time to the exam. I finished with like 3 minutes left! I think you can remember most the powershell commands as there's a pattern to them. While I didn't have the open book option, I may use it for things like VM sizes, etc. Best of luck on taking it!

I agree with you 100%. Why do we have to memorize everything, and most of them we never used. Open-book tests usually slow you down. You actually need to study for your test. You only use open book for the one that you are not sure.

Thank you so much great video will definitely let you know as soon as cleared az-104

Hey Travis, great video! I recently did the AZ-204 without much prep, but have been working with Azure for more than a year. Really resonate about the open book, I used it in the AZ-204 and finished the exam right on time. In the past, I usually finished 15-30 minutes before the time allotted. Just a tip to not get lost looking at documentation.

Market share indicators are a strange thing. To my way of thinking GCP absolutely wipes the floor with AWS and Azure in terms of ease of use, programmability and cost. It’s a very enjoyable cloud to work on with, I would say, a lower barrier to entry for new cloud developers. Well worth a try.

Great video 💯

this whizlabs hints are great!

Good video, thanks.

Never read the full case study in the exam.too much unnecessary info. Refer to the parts when answering the question.

OMG knowing that I can see the documentation during the exam gave me so much peace 😮‍💨

Thank you so much

Thank You.

33 and I’m burnt out of working with healthcare. Last week we did training for a call center. Today is my first day. I hate it. So this is something I’m going to do next.

Thanks!

make sure to look locally for how much market share the cloud has! For me as an example, the story is a whole different. As of 2020, Microsoft Azure held the largest market share for cloud computing in the Netherlands, with 73% of the market. Within the healthcare sector, Azure’s share was even higher at 90%,

Scott Duffy is great for priming the information for sure

Thanks for the info - question... how mucha are the case studies worth vs the multiple choice ?

This is exactly how the kubernetes CKA exam is. You can look up stuff but not alot of time. So you have to only use if necessary or to copy a template for some yaml files.

Any job in IT I've had, and with 17 years google box has been everyone's friend. There are many things you have have to know, but there are always times when you have to be able to research. So it makes it realistic. But not being able to understand what you need to research or what the problem is the issue with people who lie on a resume.

Hi Travis, great advices in the video. I want to share my opinion on the first advice, correlate learning with MS doc. It's great! I've been studying the certs with Examtopics, which is a great source, but I'm only remembering the answers and yet I don't understand the concepts of why I'm doing this. So I can actually pass the exams, but after that, I'd forget what are these services for or where can I find the relevant information. Maybe the next cert if I adopt your suggestion, I would have a better understanding!

Great video, I've sat a lot of MS exams. The open books learn policy is more like the real world, people need to be very careful when using this feature though as it might cost more time than it will give a benefit of, really good advice for how to use the function though. I would like MS to move more towards some full lab portions of the exams where you sit in a portal and actually configure things.

@@jpatt31 within your exam there will be an option to open MS learn and access the official MS docs site. This will allow you to look up the official documentation of any Microsoft product.

Hello, just began my AZ-104 exam path today, thanks for your clear explanations and planning tricks, have a wonderful day.

Great video. Why not start with the fundamentals course AZ-900? Is that not beneficial for jobs or are they looking for at least an admin/associate level cert?

Great video travis . I am power bi developer but currently we are using aws for storing data .now fabric is launching in may I wanna do poc costingwise which one is better aws or azure. Could you please guide me how can I do this poc?

Great video. start with azure google or aws. Can you show a developer the documentation to make a decision for a workload? Thank you

Travis, is there much difference between Microsoft Learn mock tests and Whizlabs ones? I'm from Brazil and I'm pursuing a cloud career, and some tests can get a little bit expensive.

Thanks

Amazing

Currently a sys admin and have been doing small bits of development for my job and really enjoy it. As a result I have been learning more dev tools to transition into a full dev position in the near future.

GCP is good for IAAS, PAAS, DevOps, and Data Engineering. Customer service is bad though. AWS has the most jobs and best for IAAS. Also, the Lamda functions have been amazing. Added bonus is the most MacBook friendly if that matters to you. Azure has the 2nd most jobs, 2nd best for Data engineering & AI, the most hybrid friendly, and Windows PC friendly. Since Windows laptops/desktops make up 92% of the world personal computing market, that is a large population that can benefit from Azure.

Duffy's AZ-204 series is out of date. I tried it today and got stopped in section 2 due to changes in the way App Services works causing deployment failures.

I would argue not many of us in IT in general don't memorize everything. We still go back and look things up.

I like you. Too much good stuff to go through in this comment. Love everything about this video and the breakdown of how you suggested we get ready to take our Azure exams. But I gotta be honest I slightly blacked-out with a tid-bit of anxiety when you said pick a date... then suggested the middle of the next month may be good good idea. 🥵🤣 I was totally thinking I'd give myself that 3 month window😳🤪.

Unfortunately, Scott's courses are quite often obsolete. And too superficial. Thanks hor your advice Travis, especially about whizlabs. Preparing AI and DP exams, used examtopics, quite similar, free and less functional. Also if somebody wants to pass DP 203, I can recommend Ramesh Retnasamy courses, not for preparation particularly, but for getting experience in covered topics.

Az-104 is not an open book exam (not anymore if it was in the past). This is from Az-104 exam policy: "This exam will be proctored, and is not open book"

Apologies if this has been answered in another video, but if you are new to the Azure world, do you recommend taking the AI-900 before the AI-102?

What's the pathway for the Azure Solution Architect cert? Do I need to take AZ-104 first I have sound knowledge of AWS but want to pick up Azure as well

8:31 I am planning to get az-204, what do you guys think between Scot Duffy and Alan Rodriguez, I see Alan has a higher overall score on Udemy, and some students also on Reddit recommended Alan over Scott. I know both instructors updated their courses in 2024, it's not about the money I can afford to buy both at discounted Udemy prices, its about my time to spend efficiently on which one. Thanks.
