Hello Neeru,

I am glad someone has provided such a detailed information about the MS Azure path. Can you please provide an updated article since most of the exams have been expired?

Ashish May 8, 2019 at 12:17 pm

I am having 10+ years of .net developer experience and wanted to start career with Azure. Now I don’t want to deal with programming, and wanted to work with non-programming field.
Which certification will you suggest me?

- Neeru Jain May 9, 2019 at 8:09 am
  
  Ashish, it’s not good to leave your programming field. You can choose to be Azure developer if you want to extend your career with Azure. But if you really don’t want to continue with programming, you can choose to be Azure Admin or Azure Architect as programming knowledge will help you get ahead in these roles.
  
Rajee Kannan May 21, 2019 at 7:35 pm

Neeru,
Thank you for a concise collation of information, well done and answered the questions I had.
However, I have a question please. I’m a delivery leader who needs to manage cloud developers and architects. I wanted to completely understand the 360 degrees of Azure so that I can effectively manage Azure projects/teams. I’m thinking of getting certified for AZ-300 and AZ-301. I have not done hands-on development or Infrastructure work for past 10 years, but I’m confident I can learn for these exams. What would your suggestion be ? Will it be difficult to pass 300 series without passing 100 and 200 series ?

Dinesh May 27, 2019 at 12:45 pm
