Korshub's take

The Korshub Take

Data persistence is a foundational component of modern cloud applications. Aligned with Microsoft's AZ-204 developer certification, this course covers Azure Blob Storage, Table Storage, Storage Queues, and Cosmos DB, detailing CRUD operations via SDKs, serverless Change Feed triggers, and access security management.

Who It's For

Cloud developers and software engineers designing secure, scalable storage architectures in Microsoft Azure or studying for the AZ-204 exam.

Key Takeaways

Azure Storage Ecosystem: Select and configure appropriate storage services across Blob Storage, Table Storage, Queues, and Cosmos DB.
SDK & API Operations: Execute programmatic CRUD operations and manage lifecycle tiers using Azure SDKs and REST APIs.
Cosmos DB & Serverless Workflows: Design globally distributed Cosmos DB models and trigger serverless Azure Functions via the Cosmos DB Change Feed and Event Grid.

About this course

Master the core storage services in Microsoft Azure and learn how to build secure, scalable, and event-driven solutions — all aligned to the AZ-204: Developing Solutions for Microsoft Azure certification.

This hands-on course introduces you to the full range of Azure storage options, including Blob Storage, Table Storage, Queues, and Cosmos DB. You’ll begin by understanding when to use each service based on performance, structure, and scalability needs. Then, you’ll configure storage accounts, manage access tiers, and perform CRUD operations using SDKs and REST APIs.

As the course progresses, you’ll explore real-world architectures — from setting up global distribution in Cosmos DB to triggering serverless workflows using the Change Feed and Azure Functions. You’ll also work with Table Storage and Storage Queues, comparing their use cases with Cosmos DB to help you make informed design decisions. The course concludes with a dive into event-driven systems using Azure Event Grid.

Throughout the course, you’ll apply best practices in security, lifecycle management, and scalability, gaining the practical experience needed to build robust cloud applications on Azure.
