Hey guys!
All right with you?
In this article, I would like to share with you the FREE materials I used to study and pass the “AZ-305: Designing Microsoft Azure Infrastructure Solutions” certification exam
Candidates for this exam should be knowledgeable in building cloud and hybrid solutions that run on Microsoft Azure, including compute, networking, storage, monitoring, and security.
Responsibilities assigned to the role include consulting with stakeholders and transforming business requirements into designs for secure, scalable, and reliable Azure solutions.
An Azure solution architect works closely with developers, administrators, and other roles responsible for implementing solutions in Azure.
Candidates for this exam should have advanced IT experience and knowledge, including networking, virtualization, identity, security, business continuity, disaster recovery, data management, budgeting, and governance. A professional in this role must manage how decisions in each area affect an overall solution. Additionally, you should have experience in Azure administration and development, as well as DevOps processes.

Material created by Dirceu Resende
During my studies, I created a summary of the material from this test (which is quite extensive), to help me retain the concepts and learn better. It's not the best summary in the world, but a lot of the content of the exam is there 🙂
It is worth remembering that the chapters “Microsoft Azure Well-Architected Framework” and “Cloud Adoption Framework” are very important for learning, but in my test no questions were asked about these two topics.
