Microsoft recently launched a brand new Applied Skill Credential related to deploying and managing Azure Arc enabled servers. Here's me talking about it:
An applied skill is a hands on test where you perform a set of real world tasks based on a couple of scenarios.
Azure Arc is a set of technologies from Microsoft that extends Azure management and services to workloads in multi-cloud and on-premises environments. Using Arc, you can manage and govern on-premises, edge, and multi-cloud environments from a single control plane in Azure.
Taking this 60 minute long free practical exam gives you a credential that’s useful if want to demonstrate that you have proficiency in connecting Windows Server computers in hybrid environments to Azure Arc, as well as using Arc to secure, manage, and maintain those connected computers.
Specific skills include:
You can prepare for this credential by working through a seven module learning path on Microsoft Learn. The final module in this learning path involves creating a hands on lab and using your own Azure subscription to configure and manage Arc enabled servers. You can find the learning path here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/paths/deploy-manage-azure-arc-enabled-servers/
When you are ready to take the credential, you can do so for free by navigating to the following page:
