The AZ-204 exam is suitable for candidates who want to participate in all stages of development, starting from requirements definition. Candidates for this exam also have to contribute to the design, development, deployment, and maintenance of solutions on Microsoft Azure.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\">The job of candidates for the new\u00a0Microsoft Azure AZ-204 beta exam\u00a0also includes engaging in partnerships with cloud administrators, clients, and cloud database administrators for the implementation of solutions. In addition, the exam would also test the capabilities of candidates in using Azure SDKs, APIs, data storage options, and data connections. The exam would also test the skills of candidates in-app authentication and authorization, debugging, monitoring, performance tuning, and compute and container deployment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\">Furthermore, the individual domains covered in the\u00a0new Azure AZ-204 beta exam\u00a0validate the essential skills needed for the job of an Azure cloud developer. The planning of domains in the AZ-204 exam\u2019s beta version is rightly ideal for testing the technical skills of candidates. In addition, it is also the new standard certification for Microsoft Azure cloud developers after the expiry of the AZ-203 exam. Therefore, in the long run, candidates will have to comply with the topics in the AZ-204 exam for becoming cloud developers on Microsoft Azure.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"AZ-204_Exam_Details\"><\/span><span class=\"s1\">AZ-204 Exam Details<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\">Candidates should know all details about the\u00a0AZ-204: Developing Solutions for Microsoft Azure beta exam. First of all, you need to know the target audience for the exam to determine whether you want to pursue the exam or not. The target audience for the new\u00a0AZ-204 beta exam\u00a0includes cloud developers. The exam would replace the existing AZ-203 exam that is the standard certification exam for Microsoft Azure cloud developers. <\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\">The aspiring Azure cloud developers would have to follow the exam after May 31, 2020, when the AZ-203 exam expires. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\">However, candidates should note that the AZ-204 exam is now in the beta stage. Therefore, candidates could not get immediate scores for their exams because Microsoft Azure gathers data regarding the quality of questions and the exam through beta exams. Qualification of the\u00a0new Azure AZ-204 beta exam\u00a0would automatically result in the rewarding of Microsoft Certified Azure Developer Associate certification.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"s1\">Requirements for the AZ-204 Exam<\/span><\/h4>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\">There are no specific prerequisites for the AZ-204 exam. However, candidates have to follow the recommended experience and knowledge requirements to have better chances of qualifying the exam. Here are the two important experience requirements for the\u00a0AZ-204 beta exam.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"ul1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li class=\"li1\"><span class=\"s1\">Candidates should have at least one to two years of professional experience in the development of cloud solutions and Microsoft Azure.<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"li1\"><span class=\"s1\">Candidates should have promising fluency in programming in a high-level programming language supported by Azure.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3 class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Domains_Covered_in_the_Exam\"><\/span><span class=\"s1\">Domains Covered in the Exam<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"s1\">Another important thing that candidates should keep in mind about the new\u00a0AZ-204 beta exam\u00a0refers to the exam\u2019s domains. The domains of the exam test the abilities of candidates in certain technical tasks. The abilities tested in the exam are as follows.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"ul1\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li class=\"font-size-sm\">Develop Azure compute solutions (25\u201330%)<\/li>\n<li class=\"font-size-sm\">Develop for Azure storage (15\u201320%)<\/li>\n<li class=\"font-size-sm\">Implement Azure security (20\u201325%)<\/li>\n<li class=\"font-size-sm\">Monitor, troubleshoot, and optimize Azure solutions (15\u201320%)<\/li>\n<li class=\"font-size-sm\">Connect to and consume Azure services and third-party services (15\u201320%)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<blockquote><p>Preparing for the Microsoft Azure AZ-204 exam?
