How can you prepare for the Microsoft AZ-400 Exam?

The Microsoft Learning Platform offers two preparation options for the candidates taking the Microsoft AZ-400 exam. These are free online training resources and paid training courses. Let’s look at these two options in detail.

Paid Training
This is an instructor-led training delivered under the guidance of the Microsoft authorized trainers. The official course for Microsoft AZ-400 is Designing & Implementing Microsoft DevOps Solutions. It offers the participants the skills and knowledge for designing and implementing DevOps practices and processes. The candidates will learn the process involved in planning for DevOps; using source control; consolidating artifacts; scaling Git for enterprises; implementing a container build strategy; implementing continuous integration; designing a release strategy; optimizing feedback mechanisms; implementing deployment patterns; setting up the release management workflow, among others. The participants of this instructor-led training will develop the theoretical and hands-on skills required to achieve success in the certification exam.
Free Resources
This preparation path offers the students the platform to gain the skills and knowledge required to pass the certification exam. There are six different learning paths available for this test on the Microsoft Learning Platform. These include:
- AZ-400: Developing an Instrumentation Strategy
- AZ-400: Developing a Site Reliability Strategy
- AZ-400: Developing a Security & Compliance Plan
- AZ-400: Handling Source Control
- AZ-400: Facilitating Communication & Collaboration
- AZ-400: Defining & Implementing Continuous Integration
Each of these learning paths has different modules (ranging from 6 to 12). With these resources, you will develop the expertise that you need to ace your certification exam at your first attempt.

Microsoft Designing and Implementing Microsoft DevOps Solutions Sample Questions (Q141-Q146):

NEW QUESTION # 141
You have an Azure DevOps organization named Contoso and an Azure subscription.
You use Azure DevOps to build a containerized app named App1 and deploy App1 to an Azure container instance named ACI1.
You need to restart ACI1 when App1 stops responding.
What should you do?

A. Use IP flow verify in Azure Network Watcher.
B. Add a liveness probe to the YAML configuration of App1.
C. Use Connection Monitor in Azure Network Watcher.
D. Add a readiness probe to the YAML configuration of App1.

Answer: B

Explanation:
Azure Container Instances supports liveness probes so that you can configure your containers within your container group to restart if critical functionality is not working.
Reference:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/container-instances/container-instances-liveness-probe

NEW QUESTION # 142
You are configuring Azure Pipelines for three projects in Azure DevOps as shown in the following table.

Which version control system should you recommend for each project? To answer, drag the appropriate version control systems to the correct projects. Each version control system may be used once, more than once, or not at all. You may need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Answer:

Explanation:

Explanation

Project1:Git in Azure Repos
Project2: Github Enterprise
GitHub Enterprise is the on-premises version of GitHub.com. GitHub Enterprise includes the same great set of features as GitHub.com but packaged for running on your organization's local network. All repository data is stored on machines that you control, and access is integrated with your organization's authentication system (LDAP, SAML, or CAS).
Project3: Bitbucket cloud
One downside, however, is that Bitubucket does not include support for SVN but this can be easily amended migrating the SVN repos to Git with tools such as SVN Mirror for Bitbucket .
Note: SVN is a centralized version control system.

NEW QUESTION # 143
You have a project in Azure DevOps that contains a Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipeline.
You need to enable detailed logging by defining a pipeline variable.
Mow should you configure the variable? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

Answer:

Which Query language should you use?

A. Transact-SQL
B. PL/pgSQL
C. Azure Log Analytics
D. PL/SQL

Answer: C

Explanation:
Explanation
Data analysis in Azure SQL Analytics is based on Log Analytics language for your custom querying and reporting.

NEW QUESTION # 145
You need to configure a cloud service to store the secrets required by the mobile applications to call the share.
What should you include in thesolution? To answer, select the appropriate options m the answer area, NOTE:
Each correct selection is worth one point.

Answer:

Explanation:

Explanation:

Every request made against a storage service must be authorized, unless the request is for a blob or container resource that has been made available for public or signed access. One option for authorizing a request is by using Shared Key.
Scenario: The mobile applications must be able to call the share pricing service of the existing retirement fund management system. Until the system is upgraded, the service will only support basic authentication over HTTPS.
The investment planning applications suite will include one multi-tier web application and two iOS mobile application. One mobile application will be used by employees; the other will be used by customers.
