Microsoft Azure Architect Technologies: Load Balancing

Skillsoft issued completion badges are earned based on viewing the percentage required or receiving a passing score when assessment is required. Explore standard Azure load balancers and Azure Application Gateway to improve web application performance in this 7-video course, helping prepare learners for the AZ-300: Microsoft Azure Architect Technologies certification exam. This course examines how management of back-end virtual machines is enabled through load balancer inbound NAT (network address translation) rules, and you will learn how to configure NAT rules. You will explore how the Azure Load Balancer takes incoming client requests or app traffic, and evenly distributes it against a pool of servers running in the background, which improves application performance and resiliency against server failure. You will learn to configure a public load balancer for public-facing apps. Next, learn how to deploy a load balancer using Azure portal, and how to deploy a load balancer from an ARM (Azure Resource Manager). You will learn to use Azure Application Gateway as a load balancer. Finally, the course demonstrates how to enable inbound NAT rules.
