Azure Networking and Traffic Management
Build confidence with Azure networking by learning how traffic moves through virtual networks. This course focuses on Azure specific networking components such as virtual networks, subnets, route tables, load balancers, and network security groups, and shows how they work together to allow or block connectivity. You will examine real traffic paths, understand why they work, and see how configuration changes directly impact traffic behavior in Microsoft Azure.

Ignition
Prioritizes hands on construction over theory by having learners immediately build and secure an Azure virtual network. Only the minimum context required to orient Azure networking components is provided, allowing understanding to develop through configuration, validation, and troubleshooting.
Essentials
Explains why the Ignition build works and how Azure evaluates traffic and connectivity decisions. Learners examine how routing, load balancing, private connectivity, and network security rules influence traffic behavior, and practice making intentional design choices for common production scenarios.
