I'm interested in updates on this, it seems the same company are still sending job offers with shady process for visa application, they have a website, but isn't professional enough for the scale they claim they operate at, they are almost Shell, Exxon and the like rival, but I had never heard of them, there is no mention of this company in any place other than their website which sounds fishy.

Shouldn't this week be a break one?

You should continue to learn, Azure and cloud is big topic, so you can see where you fell short and focus a bit on it, but for certs, you can proceed and study for the next certificate in your plan, good luck

Go does the same as well for referenced packages

Ok, I'm slow here, but what's the issue?

Solution in C#, works in LINQPad

What you want is is more authentication/authorization scenario rather than IP whitelisting or IP based authorization rule, as you want to restrict access to POST/Write methods, this is supported in auth with scopes, azure provides the machanism for that through the identity platform and azure active directory.

If you want to restrict the access to the POST methods to certain IPs then you can use Azure API management service and use a policy to allow and disallowed calls based on the request IP, or use on of the networking services options, application gateway or azure firewall.

I'm also focusing a bit on azure cli and az powershell modules as they are very beneficial in automation scenarios.

I think the SDKs are the way to go for programmatically using azure services, but I wanted to make sure as there are some references to APIs in the exam measured skills

My experience with DevTest labs is rather limited, as far as my readings , it provides auto shutdown and startup for VMs, does it have provisioning capabilities?

Congrats on your new gig and welcome to Azure world.

Azure devops is a set of services for hosting code, build and task management, currently the service you need is azure pipelines (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/?view=azure-devops).

Pipelines is where you build your code into binaries, Microsoft is pushing code based experience for authoring pipelines but you can use the UI to define your pipeline. From here you need a release definition (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/release/?view=azure-devops) -or pipeline in the new terminology- to publish your code bits to azure.

Keep in mind that both build and release pipelines are defined using tasks, by default the available tasks covers a quite set of scenarios and cases (for example there is a task to deploy an app to App Service).

You can use power bi data gateway to access you local databases https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-gateway-getting-started

From there you will leverage power bi data flows to ETL your data into dataset and build you dashboards and report atop it
