Learning: Azure Solutions Architect Expert

Introduction

Microsoft Azure AZ-300 and AZ-301 are the new exams for Azure Solution Architect Expert certification. The AZ-300 and AZ-301 exams replace the older 70-535 exam, which was retired on December 31, 2018. These two exams are part of Microsoft’s new role-based certification program. Candidates who pass both exams will earn the Microsoft Certified: Azure Solutions Architect Expert certification.

It's always nice to receive a mail from Microsoft saying “Congratulations on achieving your Microsoft certification Azure Solutions Architect Expert, and taking your career to the next level! A Microsoft certification can help you advance your skills, demonstrate clear business impact, and get hired or promoted”.

Exam Result Day

Process of preparing for this exam is very interesting, sometimes stressful but at the end it is worth the effort and time. Even if you have good experience with Azure there is always some topics that you are not good at, and you will need to learn and take a lot more time to understand them.

Certificate is only proof that you took some time to learn and practice certain topics and that you have some knowledge in them, nothing else.
