Stop Guessing. Find Out If You Are Ready to Book Your AZ-104 Exam in 15 Minutes.

Most AZ-104 candidates do not fail because of a knowledge gap. They fail because they prepared by reading and watching videos rather than actually configuring Azure resources — and the exam tests configuration, not recognition. The AZ-104 CertReady Scorecard gives you a weighted readiness score across five categories, a hands-on lab and case study risk check, a red-flag assessment, and a concrete 7-day fix plan. You finish knowing exactly whether to book now, wait one more week, or rebuild first.

What is included in this tool

  • Interactive Score Calculator — weighted readiness score across practice exam performance (35%), domain coverage (25%), lab and configuration readiness (20%), command and resource recall (10%), and final 7-day habits (10%). Your score updates live as you fill in each section.
  • PDF Guide — explains the scoring model, AZ-104 exam format including case studies, score bands, red flags, and a core readiness checklist across all five domains. Print it or use it on screen.
  • Lab and Case Study Readiness Assessment — 12-item checklist covering real Azure configuration tasks across identity, storage, compute, networking, and monitoring, with a live Low, Medium, or High risk output.
  • 7-Day Fix Plan — a day-by-day action plan built for AZ-104, tailored to your score band. Each plan includes specific lab tasks, not just reading tasks. Separate plans for Ready, Almost Ready, Risk Zone, and Not Ready.
  • Booking Decision Tool — check critical and key booking criteria and receive a live output: Book Now, Wait 7 Days, or Delay and Rebuild. Includes exam day strategy for case studies.
  • Lifetime access — one purchase, no subscription, no expiry. Access activated after purchase.

Why candidates fail AZ-104 after weeks of studying

AZ-104 is a role-based associate exam that tests whether you can actually administer Azure resources — not whether you can recognise definitions. The most common failure pattern is candidates who read extensively and passed practice exams but never opened the Azure portal to configure a VNet, assign an RBAC role at resource group scope, or set up a Recovery Services vault. Case studies add a second layer of difficulty: questions within a case study may depend on each other, and once you leave a case, you cannot return. This tool detects both gaps — insufficient hands-on practice and case study unpreparedness — before you spend the exam fee finding out the hard way.

This tool is built for you if

  • You are in the final 7 to 14 days before your AZ-104 exam and feel uncertain about booking
  • You have studied primarily through videos or reading and want to know if that is enough
  • Networking topics — VNet peering, NSGs, load balancers, VPN gateways — still feel uncertain
  • Case studies make you nervous because you are unsure how to manage dependent answers
  • You want a structured final-week plan that includes actual lab tasks, not just revision

What you will know after using this tool

  • Your weighted readiness score out of 100 across five measurable input categories
  • Whether any of the seven AZ-104 red flags apply to your current preparation
  • Your lab and case study risk level and which configuration tasks still need practice
  • Which of the five AZ-104 domains needs targeted work in your remaining days
  • A clear booking decision: Book Now, Wait 7 Days, or Delay and Rebuild

What does the AZ-104 exam cover

Manage Azure identities and governance (15–20%) +
This domain covers Azure Active Directory users, groups, and guest accounts; RBAC role assignments at subscription, resource group, and resource scope; Azure Policy for enforcing compliance; management groups for hierarchical governance; and Conditional Access policies including MFA requirements and sign-in risk conditions. The key distinction tested here is between Azure AD administrative roles and Azure RBAC roles — they operate independently and candidates who confuse them consistently lose marks.
Implement and manage storage (15–20%) +
Covers storage account types and redundancy options (LRS, ZRS, GRS, GZRS), blob access tiers and lifecycle management policies, Azure File shares and Azure File Sync for hybrid environments, shared access signatures, storage account network restrictions, and Azure Import/Export. Exam questions in this domain are specific about redundancy implications and lifecycle rule conditions — candidates who understand the conceptual difference between tiers but have not configured them in the portal frequently make errors here.
Deploy and manage Azure compute resources (20–25%) +
The largest domain. It covers Virtual Machine deployment and configuration, availability sets and availability zones, VM Scale Sets with autoscaling rules, Azure App Service plans and web app deployment, Azure Container Instances and Azure Kubernetes Service at a conceptual level, and VM backup using Recovery Services vaults. This domain rewards candidates who have deployed and modified Azure resources in a real environment — question wording often tests configuration order and dependency, not just resource names.
Implement and manage virtual networking (15–20%) +
Covers Virtual Network creation and subnet design, VNet peering (including its non-transitive nature), Network Security Groups and Application Security Groups, User-Defined Routes and route tables, Azure Load Balancer versus Application Gateway, Azure DNS including private DNS zones, VPN Gateway and ExpressRoute connectivity, and Azure Bastion for secure VM access. Networking is the domain where most AZ-104 failures occur — it requires hands-on practice, not just conceptual reading, and case study questions frequently involve multi-step networking scenarios.
Monitor and maintain Azure resources (10–15%) +
Covers Azure Monitor metrics and logs, Log Analytics workspaces and KQL queries, Azure Monitor alert rules and action groups, diagnostic settings and resource logs, Azure Backup policies and Recovery Services vault configuration, Azure Site Recovery for disaster recovery, and Azure Advisor recommendations. Although it is the smallest domain by percentage, monitoring and backup questions appear in case studies alongside compute and networking tasks — candidates who treat it as an afterthought often lose marks in those case scenarios.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a good practice test score before booking AZ-104 +
The AZ-104 passing score is 700 out of 1000, which corresponds to approximately 70 percent. A first-attempt average of 72 to 75 percent or above across multiple different practice exams is a reasonable signal that you are in the right range for AZ-104 — the exam is more demanding than AZ-900 and the margin for error is smaller. Practice scores alone are insufficient, however. AZ-104 consistently tests configuration details and case study dependencies that standard practice questions do not replicate. This tool uses practice score as one of five inputs, with lab readiness carrying 20 percent of your total score.
Do I need hands-on Azure experience to pass AZ-104 +
Yes. Microsoft recommends at least six months of hands-on Azure administration experience before taking AZ-104. The exam tests configuration skills that are difficult to pass without having actually worked in the Azure portal, Azure CLI, or PowerShell. Candidates who prepare exclusively through reading or video courses consistently underperform on networking and case study questions that require understanding how Azure resources behave in practice. Microsoft Learn provides free sandbox environments for all five AZ-104 domains — using them is one of the most effective ways to close the gap between knowing a concept and being able to configure it correctly under exam conditions.
How are case studies different from regular exam questions +
Case studies present a company scenario — typically a description of the organisation, its current Azure environment, and a set of requirements or problems. Multiple questions then follow, each referencing that shared context. The key difference is that answers within a case study may depend on each other, and once you submit a case and move to the next section, you cannot return to it. This means you must read the entire scenario and all requirements before answering the first question. Candidates who approach case studies the same way they approach standalone MCQ questions frequently make errors that cascade across multiple case answers.
Is the exam voucher included and how do I register for the exam +
The exam voucher is not included in this tool. The AZ-104 exam is administered globally by Pearson VUE, either at an authorized testing center or via online proctoring. Once you have confirmed your readiness using this scorecard, you register and purchase your exam voucher directly through the official Microsoft or Pearson VUE website.
Can my team or organization use this tool for multiple candidates +
Yes. DiviTrain offers volume licensing for teams and organizations preparing multiple candidates for AZ-104 certification. Whether you are certifying a cloud operations team or upskilling Azure administrators across departments, our corporate solutions provide flexible access and invoicing options.
