Excellent and well written
I enjoyed reading this book and thought it was very well written and better than video presentations of the fundamentals of Azure. I highly recommend it if you are trying to pass the AZ-900 certification.

Best AZ900 Fundamental Book I’ve read
I’ve read 3 AZ-900 Fundamental books and this one by far is the best. I like that the author goes a little deeper to explain things. I found it well worth the money.

Accurate, but inefficient….
Just like nearly every textbook or exam guide out there, the author uses overly convoluted language and excessively redundant run-on sentences or paragraphs that result in the marerial painfully inefficient to read, as if the material isn’t dry enough already… howeve the material contained is accurate… if you can get through it without falling asleep repetedly

Excelente material
Este libro explica muy bien todos los conceptos fundamentales de la computación en la nube, más allá de solo enfocarse en pasar el examen az900. Te invita a realizar laboratorios y ensuciarte las manos. Tiene un vocabulario fácil de entender y el contenido está bien estructurado.

Very in-depth guide to the fundamentals of Azure. Great for learning Azure!!!
For anyone that is wanting to learn about Azure. The manner in which the author has explained the services and solutions within Azure and the cloud are extremely easy to follow. Anyone that is new to Azure should be able to follow along with the topics and diagrams to learn the fundamentals. Whether you are new to the cloud or new to Azure, this book provides guidance and understanding to the key services and topics needed to pass the exam or just to get the basics to build Azure services. Excellent book!!!

Typical of Packt Publishing
There are some real gut-punchers of typos in this book. In the first chapter there are two paragraphs that are basically duplicated, minus a few words here or there, not to mention misspelled words and garbled grammar. It is clear as day that no one proofread this. And again, as with all Packt books, the reviews are loaded, 5 stars!The material itself is a good enough (at times) bird’s eye summary of AZ-900 concepts (itself very high level), which is why I gave this a 2 instead of a 1. If you’re willing to put up with typos and occasional redundancy, it’s an okay treatment. Other times you can tell how lazy the authors were, scraping the most basic possible information from the landing page of an Azure resource targeting business people (and not tech people), putting it into a paragraph, and then pumping out another sentence of filler along the lines of “In this section you learned about Azure VMs. In the next section, we will learn about Azure VNets.” That section then opens, “In this section, we will learn about VNets.” Except these sentences are longer and fluffier, and you feel your life being wasted as you’re reading. A very Packt strategy.The “Hands-on exercises” are a total joke. “Creating an Azure web app” for example, is going into the portal, searching for App Service, and then clicking create and filling in required information like resource group. And then hitting “Create”. *That’s it*. And all the hands-on exercises are like this. Search the thing you want to create, walk through the creation blades in 15 seconds, suddenly you are an Azure expert!

Very well explained. The only thing I didn’t like are the repetitive summary and introductions of each topic. I understand why the author does it, but for me it’s too repetitive.

I have read this book twice and pretty much aced my AZ 900 exam. It’s still mostly up to date as of March 2023.

I got the book to help with passing the Azure Fundamentals exam. It worked, I passed! It has great content and explains Azure and cloud concepts in detail. It has exercises you can use if you have an Azure account… You can get a trial one for free. Microsoft also offer the exam free if you do their online training.

I sat AZ900 quite some time ago but had to pick up a copy anyway because the diagrams alone are proving invaluable for training new starters. Great to see the recent sku changes acknowledged also.
