Course Description

Learning Objective: Use Azure Table storage service, which stores structured NoSQL data in the cloud, providing a key/attribute store with a schema-less design. Also, learn how to use Azure Cosmos DB storage to manage containers and items, and create and update documents by using the code. 

Topics:

• Azure Table storage overview

• Authorization in Table storage

• Table service REST API

• Azure Cosmos DB overview

• Managing containers and items

• Handle documents

Learning Objective: Learn about Azure SQL Database, a managed service which is a general-purpose relational database that supports structures such as relational data, JSON, spatial, and XML. 

Also learn about Azure Blob storage, which is Microsoft's object storage solution for the cloud. Blob storage is optimized for storing massive amounts of unstructured data.

Topics:

• Azure SQL overview

• Database operations (CRUD)

• Azure Blob storage overview

• Working with Azure Blob storage

• Blob Leasing in Azure

Hands-On:

• Create, read, update, and delete database tables by using code

• Set and retrieve Blob storage properties and metadata

• Replicate and copy Blobs

• Implement Blob Leasing on Portal

Learning Objective: Learn about Microsoft identity platform, which is an evolution of the Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) identity service and developer platform. It allows developers to build applications that sign in all Microsoft identities, get tokens to call Microsoft Graph, other Microsoft APIs, or APIs that developers have built. Also, learn about Claims-based and Role-based access control.
