Episode 359 – Microsoft Applied Skills and Azure Bastion Developer SKU

Episode 359 – Microsoft Applied Skills and Azure Bastion Developer SKU

In Episode 359, Ben and Scott discuss Microsoft Applied Skills – a new skilling platform for Microsoft customers to get hands-on in a live, on-demand lab environment to validate their skills in a specific area and how Applied Skills compares to the existing role-based certification exams. Next up, it’s a quick review of an upcoming roadmap item that impacts Microsoft-managed conditional access policies and how to monitor and keep up to date with Message Center messages that are applicable to your tenant. Then it’s time to wrap up with a Developer SKU that was recently launched for Azure Bastion, offering lower cost to Bastion at the expense of some of the bells and whistles in the Basic and Standard SKUs.
