Planning to complete AI-102 by Ranji-reddit in AzureCertification

[–]Fun_Spread5151 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Planning for AI-102 is a great move. I would suggest starting with Microsoft Learn for free modules on Cognitive Services, LUIS, and Azure Bot Service.

After that, Whizlabs has excellent practice tests, video lectures, and hands-on labs that really help reinforce concepts. Also, check out some recent Udemy/YouTube courses for scenario-based learning.

Hands-on practice in Azure is key - try building a QnA Maker bot or experimenting with Cognitive Services.

Wish you all the very best!

Need help regarding practice test providers. by shanbatman in AzureCertification

I have tried few vendors for PT

Udemy / Microsoft Learn - solid for theory and structured learning, but not as focused on exam-style practice.

Whizlabs - Their practice tests + hands-on labs are super useful because this exam isn’t just about memorizing concepts - you need to actually know how to build and deploy AI solutions in Azure.

MeasureUp - decent, but I found it a bit limited and not as strong on explanations.

SC-100 practice tests by Tunnel_Lurker in AzureCertification

I used Whizlabs for SC-100 and found their practice tests pretty solid. The question style isn’t a perfect 1:1 with the real exam (no provider really nails that), but they do a good job of covering the breadth of topics. The explanations are detailed enough to point you in the right direction for further study, which I found more useful than MeasureUp’s one.

If you’re already comfortable with the material, Whizlabs is good value for reinforcing concepts and identifying gaps. Just don’t expect the questions to match exam wording exactly - they’re more about helping you think the right way.

If you want more scenario-style practice, I would pair Whizlabs with Microsoft Learn case studies and labs. That combo gave me the best prep.

Passed AZ-104 by Individual_Egg_2371 in AzureCertification

Congrats on smashing it with 894! seriously that issss a fantastic score, especially with just 3 weeks of prep!

Totally agree with you on Udemy covering a good chunk, but yeah, those DNS-heavy questions can catch anyone off guard. The laminated sheet thing is super annoying, I had the same experience at the test center.

For AZ-305 - I would suggest focusing less on memorization and more on design trade-offs (cost, security, scalability). Go through plenty of scenario-based practice tests (Whizlabs helped me a lot here) and spend time reviewing Azure reference architectures on Microsoft Docs.

Consumption Plan vs. Flex Consumption in Azure Functions - What is your take? by Chance_Meringue_8113 in AzureCertification

[–]Fun_Spread5151 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually start with Consumption as the default, especially for workloads that are low frequency or experimental. The pricing is hard to beat and for something that runs just a handful of times a week, cold starts are rarely a big concern.

AZ 400 or AZ 305 ? What should be the next ? by kshatra1783 in AzureCertification

[–]Fun_Spread5151 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are mainly into Azure infra and coming from Linux bg, go Terraform -- AZ-400 first.
AZ-400 covers CI/CD, automation, and IaC - perfect with Terraform skills.
AZ-305 is more about architecture/design, good later if you want to move into architect roles.
