AZ-104 Microsoft Azure Administrator
Is this course right for you?
Scott Duffy structures it around the exam domains — virtual machines, virtual networks, Entra ID, monitoring, backup and recovery — with hands-on Azure portal demos for every major concept, plus a practice-exam section. At 17 hours it covers the objectives without padding, and he updates it as Azure changes.
It is operational, not conceptual, so it is not a starting point if you are new to cloud — do AZ-900 first — and it is preparation for a test, so the certification comes from the separate paid AZ-104 exam. On price, wait for a Udemy sale.

About this course
AZ-104 Microsoft Azure Administrator is Scott Duffy's exam prep course for the certification that qualifies you to manage Azure cloud infrastructure. The AZ-104 is the natural next step after AZ-900 Azure Fundamentals — where AZ-900 is conceptual, AZ-104 is operational: configuring virtual machines, managing virtual networks, setting up Azure Active Directory, monitoring resources, and implementing backup and recovery.
