AZ-104
Azure Administrator

Microsoft Certified: Azure Administrator Associate

The AZ-104 is the most in-demand Azure certification on the market — and for good reason. Azure Administrators are the backbone of every cloud environment, managing identities, governance, storage, compute, and virtual networks across production workloads. Microsoft partners pursuing the Solutions Partner for Infrastructure designation need team members with this cert, and it directly contributes to their Partner Capability Score. Whether you're managing a handful of VMs or orchestrating enterprise-scale landing zones, this certification proves you can keep Azure environments secure, performant, and cost-optimized. Employers consistently rank AZ-104 holders among their most valuable infrastructure hires, and the $5,000/year partner incentive tied to this designation makes every certified team member a revenue driver.
