SAP on Azure Training Course
The Planning and Administering Microsoft Azure for SAP Workloads course gives IT professionals the skills to design, migrate and run SAP solutions on Microsoft Azure. You learn how to size and build the target infrastructure, move existing SAP systems to the cloud, and keep them secure, available and well monitored once they are live.
This SAP on Azure training suits architects, administrators and engineers who already work with SAP applications such as SAP HANA, S/4HANA and SAP NetWeaver and now need to plan and support those workloads on Azure. The course maps to the Microsoft Certified: Azure for SAP Workloads Specialty certification, so what you learn is what employers ask for on the job.
What the course covers
You work through migrating SAP workloads to Azure, designing and implementing the supporting compute, storage and network infrastructure, building high availability and disaster recovery, and maintaining and optimising SAP workloads once they run in Azure. Hands-on labs give you practice with real Azure resources rather than slides alone.
A solid grounding in Azure helps before you start. If you are new to the platform, AZ-900 Microsoft Azure Fundamentals is the recommended first step, and AZ-104 Microsoft Azure Administrator builds the administration skills Microsoft recommends before this course. If your goal is a broader architect role, AZ-305 Designing Microsoft Azure Infrastructure Solutions is the sensible next step.
Logitrain has trained over 15,000 professionals since 2004, and this course includes the official certification exam fee so you can sit the exam within three months of finishing.
The Microsoft Certified: Azure for SAP Workloads Specialty credential proves you can plan, migrate and run mission critical SAP systems on Azure, a skill set in demand as more Australian organisations move SAP to the cloud. It sits at specialty level, above the Azure Administrator role, and signals to employers that you can be trusted with enterprise SAP workloads.
With Logitrain the official exam fee is included, and you receive digital course material to keep. Every course is backed by the price beat guarantee, and you can sit the exam at Logitrain as a Pearson VUE test centre or online through Pearson VUE. Train in person in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane, or live online anywhere in Australia.
There are no mandatory prerequisites for this course, so you can enrol without holding another certification. To get the most from the training, Microsoft recommends the following background.
- Hands-on experience with Azure IaaS and PaaS, including virtual machines, virtual networks, load balancers and storage.
- A working understanding of virtualisation, networking, DNS, VPNs, firewalls and Active Directory.
- Experience with Linux and Unix environments.
- Solid knowledge of SAP applications such as SAP HANA, S/4HANA, SAP NetWeaver and SAP BW, including SAP HANA deployment, configuration and administration.
If you are still building your Azure administration skills, start with AZ-104 Microsoft Azure Administrator, which Microsoft recommends before this course.
Candidates can achieve this certification by passing the following exam.
- AZ-120: Planning and Administering Microsoft Azure for SAP Workloads, leading to Microsoft Certified: Azure for SAP Workloads Specialty
You can book and sit the exam within three months of finishing your course. Sit it at any Pearson VUE test centre, or online through Pearson VUE online proctoring from a private space.
Exam format: a mix of multiple choice, multiple response and case study questions, 120 minutes, with a passing score of 700 on a scale of 1000.
Logitrain provides the AZ-120 course material in digital format, covering how to plan, migrate, secure and administer SAP workloads on Microsoft Azure. You keep it for reference after the course.
