Not too heavy syllable, to the point topics. The tutor is good!
Great and informative hands-on project. Very basic hands-on project on the Azure Portal, but need to have Microsoft account.
Azure: Create a Virtual Machine and Deploy a Web Server
In this Guided Project, you will create a Virtual Machine in Azure to deploy a web server, specifically a Nextcloud server. Instead of using just the presets, you will explore how the basic architecture of Azure works, by creating a Virtual Machine, connecting it to a subnet, protected by inbound and outbound rules thanks to Network Security Groups, in a Virtual Network. You'll also learn how to use Bastion to connect to the machine via SSH, without exposing an external port to the Internet, and then installing a simple Nextcloud server and make the Virtual Machine available to you by opening a public IP and a DNS label. Note: before taking this Guided Project, if you don't have an Azure subscription yet, please create an Azure Free Trial beforehand at https://portal.azure.com

Very clear guided project. But the Azure version used in the video guide is old, so when we practice it in the current Azure version, there will be some differences.

Reviewed Oct 8, 2023This is an excellent guided project for those who want to make an Azure server for themselves. However, your azure workplace will not match up with the Instructors version due to Microsoft Azure regular updates
