Course Overview

The Microsoft Azure Infrastructure as Code (IaC) Workshop is a hands-on training program designed for cloud engineers, DevOps professionals, and solution architects seeking to automate and standardize Azure environment deployments. While not directly tied to a single certification exam, this workshop aligns closely with skills measured in the AZ-400: Designing and Implementing Microsoft DevOps Solutions certification path. With 93% of Fortune 500 companies using Azure, mastering Infrastructure as Code has become essential for teams aiming to achieve consistent, repeatable, and auditable deployments at scale. This course serves individuals responsible for managing cloud infrastructure through code, enabling them to reduce manual errors, accelerate provisioning, and enforce compliance across environments.

Participants engage with key Microsoft tools and services including Bicep, Azure Resource Manager (ARM), Azure CLI, Visual Studio Code, Azure Pipelines, and GitHub Actions within the Azure Portal lab environment. Through guided exercises, learners build reusable Bicep templates, implement modules for composability, manage multi-scope deployments (resource group, subscription, management group), and integrate IaC into CI/CD pipelines. A core project involves migrating existing ARM templates to optimized Bicep files and deploying them via automated workflows in Azure DevOps or GitHub, simulating real-world scenarios where infrastructure changes are previewed using the "what-if" operation before production rollout. The labs emphasize collaboration using Git, ensuring participants gain practical experience in version-controlled infrastructure deployment.

This Microsoft Azure Infrastructure as Code (IaC) Workshop prepares candidates for advanced DevOps roles and supports preparation for the AZ-400 certification, recognized globally for validating enterprise-scale DevOps expertise. Certified professionals report average salary increases of up to 25%, with Azure DevOps Engineers commanding median salaries over $120,000 in North America. Koenig Solutions enhances learning with official Microsoft courseware, Guaranteed-to-Run batches, and flexible 1-on-1 training options that ensure personalized mastery of complex IaC concepts. Upon completion, learners are equipped to lead cloud automation initiatives, drive infrastructure standardization, and advance into senior cloud engineering or platform leadership roles.
