Deploying a Cost-Optimized Compute and Storage Solution
In this lab, you will act as an Azure administrator responsible for deploying and managing cost-optimized compute and storage resources for a growing application workload. You will focus on using Azure-native features to balance performance, scalability, and cost efficiency. You will deploy a Virtual Machine Scale Set using a cost-effective VM size, configure autoscaling based on demand, and implement storage lifecycle management to reduce long-term storage costs. By the end of this lab, you will have hands-on experience applying practical cost-optimization techniques commonly used in real-world Azure environments.

Real skill practice before real-world application
Hands-on Labs are real environments created by industry experts to help you learn. These environments help you gain knowledge and experience, practice without compromising your system, test without risk, destroy without fear, and let you learn from your mistakes. Hands-on Labs: practice your skills before delivering in the real world.
Learn by doing
Engage hands-on with the tools and technologies you’re learning. You pick the skill, we provide the credentials and environment.
Follow your guide
All labs have detailed instructions and objectives, guiding you through the learning process and ensuring you understand every step.
Turn time into mastery
On average, you retain 75% more of your learning if you take time to practice. Hands-on labs set you up for success to make those skills stick.
