Module 3: Azure Real-Time Reference Architectures

In this module, the student will learn the reference design and architecture patterns for dealing with streaming data. They will learn how streaming data can be ingested by Event Hubs and Stream Analytics to deliver real-time analysis of data. They will also explore a data science architecture the streams data into Azure Databricks to perform trend analysis. They will finally learn how an Internet of Things (IoT) architecture will require data platform technologies to store data.

• Lambda architectures for a Real-Time Perspective
• Design a stream processing pipeline with Azure Databricks
• Create an Azure IoT reference architecture

Module 5: Designing for Resiliency and Scale

In this module, student will learn scaling services to handle load. They will learn how identifying network bottlenecks and optimizing your storage performance are important to ensure your users have the best experience. They will also learn how to handle infrastructure and service failure, recover from the loss of data, and recover from a disaster by designing availability and recoverability into your architecture.

• Design Backup and Restore strategies
• Optimize Network Performance
• Design for Optimized Storage and Database Performance
• Incorporate Disaster Recovery into Architectures

Lab : Designing for Resiliency and Scale
