INF99X: Sample Course

• Download Latest Student Handbook and AllFiles Content
• Are you a MCT? - Have a look at our GitHub User Guide for MCTs
• Need to manually build the lab instructions? - Instructions are available in the MicrosoftLearning/Docker-Build repository

What are we doing?

• To support this course, we will need to make frequent updates to the course content to keep it current with the Azure services used in the course. We are publishing the lab instructions and lab files on GitHub to allow for open contributions between the course authors and MCTs to keep the content current with changes in the Azure platform.

• We hope that this brings a sense of collaboration to the labs like we've never had before - when Azure changes and you find it first during a live delivery, go ahead and make an enhancement right in the lab source. Help your fellow MCTs.

How should I use these files relative to the released MOC files?

• The instructor handbook and PowerPoints are still going to be your primary source for teaching the course content.

• These files on GitHub are designed to be used in conjunction with the student handbook, but are in GitHub as a central repository so MCTs and course authors can have a shared source for the latest lab files.

• It will be recommended that for every delivery, trainers check GitHub for any changes that may have been made to support the latest Azure services, and get the latest files for their delivery.

What about changes to the student handbook?

• We will review the student handbook on a quarterly basis and update through the normal MOC release channels as needed.

How do I contribute?

• Any MCT can submit a pull request to the code or content in the GitHub repro, Microsoft and the course author will triage and include content and lab code changes as needed.

• You can submit bugs, changes, improvement and ideas. Find a new Azure feature before we have? Submit a new demo!

Notes

Classroom Materials

It is strongly recommended that MCTs and Partners access these materials and in turn, provide them separately to students. Pointing students directly to GitHub to access Lab steps as part of an ongoing class will require them to access yet another UI as part of the course, contributing to a confusing experience for the student. An explanation to the student regarding why they are receiving separate Lab instructions can highlight the nature of an always-changing cloud-based interface and platform. Microsoft Learning support for accessing files on GitHub and support for navigation of the GitHub site is limited to MCTs teaching this course only.

- In Task 'Create an admin account for the MySQL Flexible Server': The following URL references Azure AD, and should likely be updated to reflect Entra instead. Current URL listed first, followed by recommended updated URL:

[Set up Azure Active Directory authentication for Azure Database for MySQL - Flexible Server](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/mysql/flexible-server/how-to-azure-ad)
[Set up Microsoft Entra authentication for Azure Database for MySQL - Flexible Server](https://learn.microsoft.com/azure/mysql/flexible-server/how-to-azure-ad)

- In Task 'Create service connections from the microservices to the database server', Step 5: The new connection failed to validate initially, and this may be because resource provider Microsoft.ServiceLinker was not registered before running the command. It might be recommended to add a step immediately previous to proactively register it:

az provider register --namespace Microsoft.ServiceLinker
az provider show -n Microsoft.ServiceLinker --query registrationState

Another possibility, one can manually validate in the Azure UI via the Settings > Service Connector menu option, click the 'the active deployment page' link at the top of page, and then selecting and validating manually from there works as expected:

- In Task 'Update an existing microservice to receive Event Hub events', Step 3: I was unable to get the referenced 'az storage container create' command to work successfully, and unfortunately was unable to determine the root-cause for failure. Hopefully the CO can dig deeper for solution to this issue.

In order to proceed, I was able to easily create the storage account manually through the Azure UI.

Service Bus Explorer is no longer labelled as '(Preview)', and text could be changed to:

Select Service Bus Explorer and select Peek from start.

Challenge 02: Migrate a Spring Apps application to Azure: Credit Card Required to get started with this lab (for Azure Spring Apps Enterprise)

Module: 0?

Lab/Demo: 02

Task: 'Create an Azure Spring Apps Enterprise service'

Step: 10

Description of issue

Credit Card appears to be required to utilize the Enterprise SKU of Azure Spring Apps called for in that step:

Repro steps:

1. Follow lab steps as-written, attempt to use a new Azure Pass, receive error above.

2. I was unable to find a workaround, is there a method one can use to take this course without a Credit Card being required?
