Thanks Adam, you are very generous with your content. This could easily be a paid online course on Udemy, Pluralsight etc. so mad props to you for keeping this free and making more videos. Pozdrówki

Passed the exam but I still enjoy watching this series as I learn such an amazing way of looking at the same concept. I can't thank you enough Adam !

[@toddbean9943]

Just wow, this whole series has been so much more informative than any of the other videos I have watched. The straightforward explanation, diagrams, and dialing down on one subject at a time along with knowledge checks is just amazing. This is some of the most valuable content I have seen for any subject I have studied. Thank you so much!

[@iphadkegmail]

Thank you very much for the time and efforts you've put into making this course. It truly SHINES! The videos and practice tests are just great to go over, even if you use Azure ever day! Thanks again Adam!

"A picture is worth a thousand words!" - that's briefly describes how Adam's AZ-900 videos stand out over many others on YT or even paid ones. Keep the GREAT work and hope you'll create a similar course for AZ-204. 🤞

[@AdamMarczakYT]

Wow, thanks!

[@tyroneskie]

Awesome Materials Adam, It helped me passed the exam. - Thank you so much!

[@AdamMarczakYT]

Great to hear!

[@Chatsworth1979]

Another great video, thanks. It's so funny that when you see people give a demo about creating a new resource they always leave out the tags. "Hey, we'll just leave the tags blank, we don't need those now". Made me think they were not important, but now I know they are very important!

[@AdamMarczakYT]

Which is partially true. I’ve seen many companies which don’t utilize them but also equally many, if not more that do. Typically those are larger enterprise companies. :)

[@letsJawa]

Hi Adam, you mentioned the prohibitive nature of Resource group names and that the Tags was an answer to that. Did I miss how you mentioned Tags as the better alternative to Resource Tags?

[@mleii1169]

Really enjoying your content, learning a whole lot from them. I have a question though, I'd like to better understand how these tags can be used outside of just the cost analysis, reporting, automation you mentioned. I'm wondering if we could better manage our resource groups with them, we have a lot of org groups all under the same subscription and managing them seems to be a bit of a pain due to how Azure defines how to organize. We'd like to group resource groups under a specific org where we can limit access to them both via accounts and other components in azure, etc. I know we can apply access directly on things but that is a pain to manage when components can move around as it'd require you to redo them etc. So question is, have you gone more in depth into Resource Tags? Also you mentioned Management Groups here and there, is there a video you've done that goes into more depth on their use? As they might be another thing that would be useful for managing our resources, but seem to not be at the right level in our hierarchy as they appear to be above subscription. Seems like it'd be better below it and allow you to group resource groups under them and perhaps be able to move resource groups when needed. But likely I'm not understanding them well enough. Keep up the great work!

[@AdamMarczakYT]

If you are asking me if potentially you could use tags to do automated access management then yes. Although as organizations grow you might eventually hit subscription wide limits so multi-subscription setup with management groups is advised for larger organizations. That said it entirely depends on how much stuff do you have in Azure :) But in Azure hierarchy is fairly simple it's Management Group > Subscription > Resource Group > Resources, and for all those elements only Management Groups can be nested. Feel free to check my episode on this topic. :)

[@sauravdubey5156]

Hi Adam, is there any way to Bulk update of resources if they don't have the any Tag, for example if you have resources around 2000 in the our resource group, need to update the Tag in single go....Tag Like "Application, Owner, CostCentre, Project, Environment and BU.

Potentially, but that's a secret for now :)

[@PiyushSingh-de1vx]

Hello Adam, I am preparing for AZ 900, I saw on your websit that there are 9 episodes under construction, could you please lets us know when are we going to get those..are those necessary ? Or can give an attempt to the exam only by going through these 30 episodes. Kindly let me know Thanks in advance 😀

[@AdamMarczakYT]

9 remaining episodes should be done in the next 3 weeks :) I might need to release content catch up as there were few updates on Nov-9th, but I still think you can pass without those, maybe not perfect score though.

I am a college student. I want to give az-900 exam. I looked that there are three way to register. Is that okay if I register through Pearson VUE which is for non student staff? I can't figure it out how schedule with Certiport.

here look Pearson-VUE is for non-student interested in technology

[@AdamMarczakYT]

Unfortunately I'm not sure. I assume Certiport gives some student discounts for the exam. But if you should be able to use PearsonVue if you want. Especially if you have a voucher. If you feel like you want full answer I'd ask on MS forums for learning answers.microsoft.com/en-us/education_ms/forum

Hey Adam, I posted a comment which probably got blocked because it contained a github link. Dzięki!

[@AdamMarczakYT]

Hey Paul, that's weird. Usually they get held for review and I approve them as long as they point to official Microsoft websites/github. But I don't see anything in 'held for review' section right now :(

[@PaulDawson1]

I'll try again. Hi Adam if you could do a demo on how to get this working that would be awesome! I'm sure you could do it not problem. https(//)github.com(/)miguelangelopereira(/)azuremonitor2syslog I tried for a week with no joy. I think because I did not install the extension into the Function App but I just don't know how to do that.

[@AdamMarczakYT]

Google is clever. It detected the link even when you escaped it. I approved it anyways. ;) Thanks for the suggestion on the topic but this seems to cover a very narrow scenario for monitoring. As such at this time I won't be able to create video tutorial on this. I have a huge backlog of planned videos which help a very broad audience and I already committed them. If something doesn't work maybe open an issue on the Github repository and author will take a look. Note that the author is from Microsoft so he might be able to help out.

[@slicex3408]

So resource groups are basically pointless if you can have tags. Nice to know.
