Hello once again , I am back with my second blog.
So, here I would like to share my experience with Exam number 70-534 - Architecting Microsoft Azure Solutions.
Yes , it is the toughest exam after all that I have ever been given and I have been tested on various areas which is prescribed as per new Syllabus by Microsoft
Syllabus for 70-534 - https://www.microsoft.com/en-in/learning/exam-70-534.aspx .
Friends , my suggestions would be , don't fall in trap of dumps and assurance given by any senior who is conducting a workshop on Architect other than Microsoft .
It is you who is going to answer a series of Questions in the exams . So , before you go ahead and register yourself for the certification exam, please make sure that you are very well aware of the services and architecture of the cloud properly. The reason why I am telling you because it is all about the concepts by which you are going to architect the solutions as per business requirement . So , if you know the product very well, then you can easily comply with the platform based on your requirements and provision the resources.
You can expect case studies along with some series of questions from various aspects which includes asp.net , API , networking , VM instances , azure active directory and analytics and many more .
Now , the question is - How to start with the study and from where you will get the resources ?
- Register yourself at openedx.microsoft.com with microsoft email id and subscribe for Architecting Microsoft Azure Solutions .
- Give yourself a dedicated time of 1 month at least for practice and to understand the concepts.
- Once you are done with the course , please do check Microsoft documentations and updates from azure.microsoft.com
- I won't suggest you check youtube or other resources . But if you are a complete fresher , I will personally suggest ... please don't even try to attempt this exam . This exam is mainly meant for Architect and Cloud administrators, altough it does not have any pre-requisites so anybody can enroll for cert.
- Please do not rely on dumps , as I said on my last blog also. Study well, understand the concepts , do the practicals and please do not rush to get the certification on the very next day . Once you are confident on the concept parts, then only go ahead and attempt the certifications .
I followed the same footsteps, I took my own time and did a lot of RnD on Azure Architect from azure.microsoft.com and I read many documents from that website . It took me almost 2 months and then I was ready and so I decided to complete my certification on Sept 9, 2017 and after spending 2 hours , I was able to clear the exam successfully and got myself certified on MCSA in Cloud platform
