This short video gives you a list of some of the other resources you should review before taking the Microsoft AZ-101 exam.
Congratulations on making it all the way through this learning path. If you’re preparing to write the Microsoft AZ-101 exam, there’s something to keep in mind. Although we’ve covered all of the major topics in the exam guide, there are a few details that weren’t covered. I’ll list them for you and show you where you can learn more about them.
- The Azure App Service allows you to bind a custom SSL certificate to your app. Here’s a link to the documentation that shows you how to do it.

To save you some typing, I put all of the links from this video in the transcript below.
- You can also add a Content Delivery Network (CDN) to an App Service web app. This will cache your app’s content in the CDN so your users will see it more quickly.

- To secure a web app, you can use role-based access control. Here’s a link to how you can manage app roles.
https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/active-directory/develop/howto-add-app-roles-in-azure-ad-apps
- If you have an app that requires a large, dedicated, isolated environment, then you can create an App Service Environment.
https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/app-service/environment/create-external-ase
- To enable multi-factor authentication for users in bulk, you can use PowerShell.
https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/active-directory/authentication/howto-mfa-userstates
- Finally, Role-based Access Control (RBAC) is a great way to secure your Azure resources, but sometimes it can be tricky to figure out why it’s not working the way you expect. Here’s a link to some RBAC troubleshooting tips.
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/role-based-access-control/troubleshooting
I also recommend that you get more hands-on experience with Azure, which will help reinforce what you’ve learned.
If you have any questions or comments, please let us know.
Thanks and good luck on the exam!
