Microsoft Azure Certification added to our IT skill base

Strident continuously invests in colleagues' personal development and this is no different for Strident managing director, Chris Joberns, who has recently passed his exams for Microsoft Azure certification.

"Microsoft Azure Certification proves we have the skills to professionally manage virtual servers and virtual desktops in Microsoft's Azure cloud platform. Businesses are looking for more and more flexible ways of working and the Azure cloud platform offers a wide range of services. However, data security is paramount and this certification proves we have the expertise to carry this out securely," explains Chris.

What is Microsoft Azure?

The Microsoft Azure cloud computing platform has more than 200 products and cloud services designed to build, run and manage applications both in the cloud and on premises. Azure provides services such as virtual desktops, servers and file storage, and integrates closely with other Microsoft products such as Office 365.

In completing the Azure Administrator Associate certification, Chris has shown his expertise in implementing, managing, and monitoring an organization's Microsoft Azure environment. This includes managing identity, governance, storage, compute and virtual networks in a cloud environment plus provisioning and adjusting resources.
