You master CI\/CD pipelines, infrastructure as code with Bicep and Terraform, artifact management, automated testing strategies, and application monitoring. MCT-certified trainers guide you through implementing end-to-end DevOps workflows on Microsoft cloud lab environments.

enterprises<\/h3>\n<p>DevOps culture has become a standard in IT organizations seeking to accelerate delivery cycles while maintaining quality and reliability. Azure DevOps and GitHub offer a complete ecosystem for implementing continuous integration, continuous deployment, and application monitoring practices. In French-speaking Switzerland, companies adopting DevOps significantly reduce their time to production and improve collaboration between teams. The DevOps Engineer Expert certification is the most advanced in the Azure developer pathway and positions certified professionals as experts capable of transforming software delivery processes in their organization.<\/p>\n<h3>Complete program of the AZ-400 training<\/h3>\n<p>This 4-day training follows the official MOC curriculum and covers all DevOps skills assessed in the AZ-400 exam. The program begins with configuring development processes using Git branching strategies, pull requests, and code reviews. You then implement complete CI\/CD pipelines with Azure Pipelines and GitHub Actions, including builds, automated tests, and multi-environment deployments. Infrastructure as code is covered with Bicep and Terraform to provision Azure resources reproducibly. Dependency management with Azure Artifacts and container registries is covered in depth. The security component includes integrating vulnerability scans into pipelines and secret management. The program concludes with monitoring using Azure Monitor, Application Insights, and continuous feedback strategies.<\/p>\n<h3>Target profiles and prerequisites<\/h3>\n<p>This training targets DevOps engineers, development team leads, CI\/CD engineers, and system administrators transitioning to DevOps. Professionals already working with Azure DevOps or GitHub who want to formalize their practices will benefit from the structured and comprehensive approach of this official course. Prerequisites include experience with Azure administration or Azure development (AZ-104 or AZ-204 certification recommended), familiarity with Git and version control, and understanding of agile development concepts. Experience with at least one programming language (C#, Python, or JavaScript) is helpful for pipeline and scripting exercises.<\/p>\n<h3>DevOps Engineer Expert certification<\/h3>\n<p>The AZ-400 exam validates advanced skills in designing and implementing DevOps strategies on Azure. This is a prerequisites-based certification: you must hold either the Azure Administrator Associate (AZ-104) or Azure Developer Associate (AZ-204) certification before earning the DevOps Engineer Expert title. The exam covers process configuration, CI\/CD implementation, security and compliance integration, instrumentation strategy, and dependency management. With this dual certification, you demonstrate both technical expertise on Azure and the ability to optimize the software delivery lifecycle.<\/p>\n<h3>ITTA expertise for DevOps training<\/h3>\n<p>ITTA combines official Microsoft training with the practical experience of our trainers on real DevOps projects. Our MCT-certified trainers have implemented CI\/CD pipelines and DevOps transformations for Swiss companies, bringing concrete examples that enrich the official curriculum. Sessions in Geneva and Lausanne are limited in size to allow in-depth interaction with the trainer and personalized follow-up. The official Microsoft lab environments provide a complete infrastructure to practice pipeline configurations, IaC deployments, and monitoring scenarios. Post-training support is available to help you apply acquired practices in your professional environment.<\/p>\n<h3>Frequently asked questions<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Is the AZ-204 certification required before taking the AZ-400?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You need either the AZ-204 (Developer) or AZ-104 (Administrator) certification to earn the DevOps Engineer Expert title. You can take the AZ-400 training without these prerequisites, but you will need them for the complete certification.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Does this training cover both Azure DevOps and GitHub?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes, the AZ-400 training covers both platforms. Azure Pipelines and GitHub Actions are both addressed for CI\/CD, along with their respective features for code management and collaboration.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is experience with Terraform required?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>No prior Terraform experience is needed. The training covers infrastructure as code with both Bicep (Azure native) and Terraform, starting from the fundamentals of each tool.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How does this training complement the AZ-204?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The AZ-204 focuses on application development on Azure (code, PaaS services). The AZ-400 adds the DevOps dimension: CI\/CD automation, infrastructure as code, security in pipelines, and monitoring. Together, they form a complete cloud developer profile.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What tools should I have on my machine?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The labs run on Microsoft cloud environments accessible from a web browser.
