Azure Virtual Machines Workshop is a one-day immersive, hands-on programme focused on creating, configuring, managing and maintaining virtual machines within Microsoft Azure.

Throughout the workshop, participants explore the lifecycle of an Azure Virtual Machine from initial planning through deployment and ongoing operations. The course covers key considerations before creating a VM, configuration, remote connectivity, network protection, reliability, scaling, monitoring and maintenance.

Its practical format allows learners to go beyond understanding Azure VM concepts and gain experience of how virtual machines are deployed and managed as part of a cloud environment.
