🎯 Key points for quick navigation: 00:29 *🖥️ Azure exam AZ-204 focuses heavily on developing Azure compute solutions, covering topics like VMs, containers, Azure App Service, and Azure Functions.* 02:21 *🌐 Azure provides three main methods for achieving high availability on virtual machines: Availability Sets, Availability Zones, and Azure Site Recovery.* 05:36 *📑 ARM templates in Azure are used for declaratively defining and deploying Azure resources, enabling consistent deployments across different environments.* 07:33 *🔑 Control plane operations in Azure involve management tasks like CRUD operations, while data plane operations handle specific functionalities like data access.* 10:17 *🛠️ Azure Resource Manager (ARM&t=617) acts as the control plane and management plane for Azure, processing all control plane operations for resource management.* 12:22 *📄 ARM templates consist of sections like schema, parameters, variables, resources, and outputs, facilitating infrastructure deployment as code in Azure.* 19:13 *🔄 Best practices for ARM templates include using incremental deployment mode by default, which leaves existing resources unchanged unless specified otherwise.* 22:16 *🐳 Containerization involves specifying a base image, setting a working directory, copying dependencies, and defining a startup command.* 24:36 *🛠️ Docker simplifies container creation; use `docker build` to create an image and `docker run` to instantiate a container locally.* 27:37 *🌐 Azure Container Registry centralizes container storage, crucial for scalability and disaster recovery strategies.* 29:19 *📦 Azure Container Instances provide serverless container deployment; suitable for long-running applications compared to Azure Functions.* 34:09 *🚀 Azure App Service is ideal for hosting traditional web applications, offering auto-scaling, deployment slots, and built-in CI/CD integration.* 38:25 *🌍 Azure App Service Plans define app resource environments, from shared to isolated tiers, impacting scalability and resource isolation.* 41:11 *🔍 Diagnostic Settings in Azure send logs to Azure Log Analytics, Storage Accounts, or Event Hubs, crucial for monitoring and troubleshooting applications.* 44:26 *🚀 Azure App Service can be deployed using Visual Studio Code with the Azure extension, simplifying deployment through a straightforward UI.* 45:38 *🔄 Automated deployments from a source control repository (e.g., GitHub) to Azure App Service are recommended for seamless updates and management.* 46:06 *🎰 Azure App Service deployment slots allow deploying applications to different environments (e.g., staging, production) to test changes before production deployment.* 47:03 *🌐 Deployment slots in Azure App Service facilitate A/B testing by directing traffic between different slots, enabling controlled feature rollout and testing.* 48:57 *📈 Auto scale in Azure App Service helps manage high traffic by dynamically adjusting server resources based on metrics like CPU usage or request count.* 54:31 *🛠️ Azure Functions provide serverless event-driven computing, handling scale and resource management automatically without direct server management.* 56:52 *📊 Azure Functions offer different hosting plans: Consumption (pay-per-execution), Premium (predictable pricing, no timeouts), and Dedicated (runs on App Service Plans).* 01:01:44 *🎯 Azure Functions use triggers (event sources) and bindings (connectors) to automate input/output interactions with Azure services, simplifying integration and development.* 01:05:56 *🖥️ Local development for Azure Functions involves reading connection strings from local.settings.json, allowing debugging and testing before deployment.* 01:06:51 *🌐 Azure Functions can be deployed from Visual Studio Code using Azure extensions and integrated with source control like GitHub for automated deployments.* 01:08:15 *🔗 Azure Durable Functions enable stateful workflows and orchestrations, utilizing a library that manages state transparently for complex function interactions.* 01:11:02 *🔄 Components of Azure Durable Functions include orchestration functions, activity functions for logic, and starter functions to initiate workflows, simplifying complex task chaining.* 01:13:21 *📦 Azure Functions custom handlers extend support to languages like Go, Rust, and Deno, leveraging external web servers for execution while integrating seamlessly with Azure infrastructure.* 01:14:32 *🌍 Azure Cosmos DB is a globally distributed NoSQL database supporting multiple data models (document, key-value, column-family, graph), adaptable through various APIs (SQL, MongoDB, Gremlin, Cassandra, Table).* 01:27:52 *🌐 Azure Cosmos DB offers multiple consistency levels, balancing between consistency and availability in a globally distributed system.* 01:30:11 *🔄 Strong consistency in Azure Cosmos DB ensures data is synchronously replicated before confirmation, prioritizing consistency over availability.* 01:31:06 *📝 Session consistency in Azure Cosmos DB guarantees a writer in the same session reads the same data they wrote, maintaining order.* 01:32:16 *🔄 Eventual consistency in Azure Cosmos DB offers high performance but no guarantees on data consistency, suitable for scenarios prioritizing low latency.* 01:32:47 *🔄 Azure Cosmos DB Change Feed allows applications to react to database events like deletions or creations, enhancing application logic integration.* 01:50:19 *🛡️ Outsourcing authentication to identity providers like Azure AD improves user experience, simplifies management, and enhances security by leveraging robust infrastructure.* 01:51:26 *🛡️ Protecting APIs with tokens from Azure AD involves steps like registering APIs, configuring client applications, and granting API permissions, ensuring secure access control.* 01:52:51 *🛡️ Azure AD B2C is tailored for consumer-facing applications, simplifying user sign-ups and integrating with APIs securely through token-based authentication.* 01:59:10 *🛡️ Shared Access Signatures (SAS tokens) in Azure provide granular access control to services like Storage Accounts without exposing keys, enhancing security and operational flexibility.* 02:00:34 *🛡️ Azure Key Vault centralizes and secures secrets, keys, and certificates, simplifying management, enforcing strict access controls, and supporting seamless secret rotation.* 02:05:22 *🛡️ Azure App Configuration provides centralized configuration management, integrating seamlessly with Azure Key Vault for securely storing and accessing application settings and secrets.* 02:08:19 *🛡️ Managed Identities in Azure eliminate the need for storing and managing secrets by associating identities directly with Azure resources, improving security and simplifying access management.* 02:13:04 *🔄 Caching in Redis stores data in RAM for faster retrieval compared to traditional databases, enhancing performance by avoiding repeated trips to backend servers.* 02:18:07 *🌐 Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) are distributed sets of reverse proxies globally, caching static content to enhance performance and mitigate security risks like DDoS attacks.* 02:30:31 *📊 Azure Application Insights provides application-level monitoring with features like dependency tracking, performance analysis, and customizable alerts using the Kusto Query Language (KQL).* 02:35:21 *🌐 Azure Application Insights allows creating availability tests (URL ping tests) to continuously monitor endpoint health, flagging issues if endpoints fail to respond.* 02:37:00 *🚨 Azure Application Insights enables setting alerts for endpoint failures, notifying through email or Microsoft Teams, ensuring proactive monitoring and management.* 02:38:08 *🔗 Azure API Management acts as a reverse proxy with API features like caching and throttling, providing a developer portal for API interaction and management.* 02:42:50 *🔄 Azure API Management allows grouping APIs into products for applying specific policies and subscriptions, facilitating better management and access control.* 02:53:06 *📡 Azure Event Grid facilitates event routing via a push model,

Thank you for the great video. Can you share the code as well?

Verryyy good tutorial, best one I've seen so far thanks a lot

Best video to clarify my concept on Azure Service Principal

We would like to see a video on ‘function calling’ with azure

One of my favourite KZbin channels! Will be a great watch

best explanation ; thanks!

Great video!

I like your style of teaching...

You won't believe, but I have tried to learn this topic more than 20 times now, and every time I gave up because i just can't get what people are explaining I even tried ChatGPT and all, but nothing worked, but watching you video gave me perfect understanding of what service principle is, Thanks Man...

this video was legit tho!

too bad you can only use Event Hub Namespace policies when configuring a diagnostic setting in Azure.

Good Explanation. Thanks Bro

Thank you for the video! This video is great for general knowledge. I passed the exam last March 12, 2024. I watched this video two times, and the freecodecamp video. Exam dumps are not that helpful, but going to examtopics to read the "Discussion" portion would help in critical thinking and checking the documentation more.

Thanks lot , very useful and easy to understand

Came here after seeing many videos and I was confused but your video made it crystal clear . Thanks million

MASHALLAH Abdullah, very good 👍 effort
