Course WS-013T00-A: Azure Stack HCI

Course outline

Module 1: Introducing Azure Stack HCI

This module describes the basic characteristics of Azure Stack HCI, along with its peer
offerings that are part of the Azure Stack portfolio, including Azure Stack Hub and
Azure Stack Edge. The module also presents an overview of the Azure Stack HCI core
technologies and management tools, and a high-level walkthrough of a typical
implementation process. Finally, the modules concludes with a summary of Azure
Stack HCI hybrid capabilities, most of which are covered in detail in Module 4.

Lessons
 Overview of Azure Stack HCI
 Overview of Azure Stack HCI technologies
 Overview of Azure Stack HCI management tools
 Overview of the Azure Stack HCI hybrid capabilities

After completing this module, students will be able to:

 Describe basic capabilities and use cases of the Microsoft Azure Stack portfolio.
 Identify the core components of the Azure Stack HCI architecture.
 Identify common management tools used to deploy and manage a
hyperconverged infrastructure.
 Describe the purpose and capabilities of Azure Arc.
 Identify Azure infrastructure services that you can integrate into your on-
premises environment.
 Configure cloud witness as the quorum witness type.
 Describe how to establish a Point-to-Site VPN to an Azure virtual network with
Azure Network Adapter
 Describe the characteristics and use cases for Azure File Sync and Azure
Monitor.
 Explain now to maintain business continuity, using Azure Backup and Azure Site
Recovery.
 Describe Azure Update Management use cases and architecture.
 Describe the high level process for provisioning an Azure Stack HCI
implementation.
Module 2: Operating and maintaining Azure Stack HCI

This module describes how to implement, manage, and maintain workloads on Azure
Stack HCI. As described in the first module, Azure Stack HCI is designed to optimize
performance, resiliency, and scalability of specific types of workloads. Implementing
these workloads follows the initial configuration, which involves provisioning
virtualized storage and networking layers on top of the hardware approved by
Microsoft that is running the Windows Server 2019 operating system. This module
provides an overview of different Azure services and Windows Server functionality
that can be used to manage and maintain those workloads, leveraging integration of
Windows Server 2019 with Azure.

Lessons
 Implementing and managing workloads on Azure Stack HCI
 Maintaining Azure Stack HCI

Lab : Lab B: Using Windows Admin Center in hybrid scenarios


 Integrating hyperconverged infrastructure with Azure services
 Reviewing Azure integration functionality

After completing this module, students will be able to:

 Implement shared clustering with shared disks.


 Describe components required to deploy shielded VMs.
 Implement Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) workloads.
 Host container-based deployments in Azure Stack HCI.
 Create a Point-to-Site (P2S) VPN connection to an Azure virtual network, with
Azure Network Adapter.
 Describe Azure File Sync architecture.
 Implement Azure File Sync to replicate files between on-premises and an Azure
file share.
 Manage Azure Stack HCI workloads with Azure Arc.

Module 3: Planning for and implementing Azure Stack HCI storage

This module describes how to plan for and implement Azure Stack HCI Storage. The
module covers the core HCI storage technologies in detail and includes specific
coverage of Storage QoS and Storage Replica (in the context of Azure Stack HCI). The
module describes the process of planning, implementation and management of
Azure Stack HCI storage.

Module 4: Planning for and implementing Azure Stack HCI networking

This module describes how to plan for and implement Software Defined Networking
in Azure Stack HCI. The module focuses on the technology and its basic functionality,
with emphasis on Windows Admin Center as the primary SDN management tool. The
module also covers in more detail four specific components of SDN available in
Azure Stack HCI; Switch Embedded Teaming (SET), Software Load Balancing (SLB),
Datacenter Firewall, and RAS Gateways.
