What does the AZ-104 exam cover

Manage Azure identities and governance +
This domain covers how you control who can access what across your Azure environment. You will configure Microsoft Entra ID users and groups, assign permissions using RBAC and access scopes, enforce compliance with Azure Policy, manage resource locks and tags, and control spending across subscriptions and management groups. These skills sit at the foundation of every Azure administrator role.
Implement and manage storage +
This domain covers how to provision and protect Azure storage at enterprise scale. You will configure storage accounts with the right redundancy and encryption settings, secure access through shared access signatures and storage keys, manage Azure Files for shared workloads, implement Blob Storage with lifecycle management policies, and configure data protection and replication options.
Deploy and manage Azure compute resources +
The largest domain, covering virtual machines, containers, and web applications. You will provision and resize VMs, configure availability sets and scale sets, deploy infrastructure as code with ARM templates and Bicep, manage Azure Container Instances and Container Apps, and configure Azure App Service plans, deployment slots, certificates, and scaling rules. These are the day-to-day compute skills employers expect from an Azure Administrator.
Implement and manage virtual networking +
This domain covers how Azure networks are designed, secured, and connected. You will configure virtual networks, subnets, and VNet peering, implement Network Security Groups, Application Security Groups, and custom routes, connect PaaS services securely using service endpoints and private endpoints, and configure DNS, load balancers, Azure Bastion, and network troubleshooting tools.
Monitor and maintain Azure resources +
This domain covers how you keep Azure environments observable, healthy, and recoverable. You will configure Azure Monitor for metrics, logs, alerts, and Application Insights, monitor network connectivity with Network Watcher and Connection Monitor, and implement Azure Backup and Site Recovery for disaster recovery and business continuity planning.

Where can AZ-104 take your career

Career paths and next certifications after AZ-104 +
AZ-104 is a prerequisite for two of the most valued expert-level Azure credentials: Azure Solutions Architect Expert (with AZ-305) and Azure DevOps Engineer Expert (with AZ-400). After AZ-104, many professionals move toward AZ-305 Azure Infrastructure Solutions for the architect path, AZ-400 Azure DevOps Solutions for the DevOps engineer path, or start with the AZ-900 Azure Fundamentals training as a prerequisite.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between AZ-900 and AZ-104 +
AZ-900 is an entry-level fundamentals exam that proves broad awareness of Azure concepts. AZ-104 is an associate-level exam that proves you can actually administer Azure infrastructure: provisioning VMs, configuring networks, managing storage, setting up governance, and monitoring resources. Microsoft recommends AZ-900 knowledge or equivalent experience before attempting AZ-104. Most employers list AZ-104, not AZ-900, as the baseline requirement for Azure Administrator roles.
What salary and roles does AZ-104 certification support +
AZ-104 is one of the most in-demand cloud certifications globally. Certified Azure Administrators typically earn between $90,000 and $130,000 in the US, with strong demand across the UK, Netherlands, Germany, and Australia. The certification directly supports roles such as Azure Administrator, Cloud Engineer, and Systems Administrator, and is a formal prerequisite for both the Azure Solutions Architect Expert and Azure DevOps Engineer Expert certifications.
How long does it take to prepare for the AZ-104 exam +
Most candidates with IT infrastructure experience spend four to eight weeks preparing for AZ-104. The compute domain is the largest, covering around 20 to 25 percent of the exam, so that area benefits from the most study time. The 20+ hours of Skillsoft training, combined with 40 hours of Azure Challenge Labs and the MeasureUp practice exam with 200+ questions, gives you a thorough path from structured learning to genuine exam readiness.
Is the exam voucher included and how do I register for the exam +
The exam voucher is not included in this training. The exam is administered globally by Pearson VUE, either at an authorized testing center or via online proctoring. Once your preparation is complete, you register and purchase your exam voucher directly through the official certification or Pearson VUE website.
Can my team or organization get certified together +
Yes. DiviTrain offers volume licensing for teams and organizations looking to upskill at scale. Whether you are certifying a small IT team or rolling out training across departments, our corporate solutions provide flexible access and invoicing options. Visit our For Teams page to learn more.
