Start guided practiceThe core Azure operations exam: identity and governance, storage, compute, virtual networking, and the monitoring and backup that keeps a subscription healthy.
Microsoft Azure Administrator is Microsoft's associate-level cloud computing certification, sat as exam AZ-104. The exam runs for 1 hour 40 minutes, with a pass mark of 700 / 1000 (scaled). It costs US$165 at the standard rate.
Microsoft publishes the syllabus as 5 weighted domains. Manage Azure identities and governance carries the most weight at 22%, and the three largest domains together account for roughly 61% of the scored content — worth knowing before you decide where study time goes.
AZ-104 is heavily hands-on in flavour. Questions frequently show a portal configuration or a PowerShell snippet and ask what the result will be, so time spent in a real subscription pays back more than reading does.
Confirm these details on the official Microsoft page before booking — vendors adjust format and pricing without notice.
