PR-602: Migrate and Secure Windows Server and SQL Server (Migrate Compute) — Lesson 3: Security, Identity, Reliability, Cost, Performance, and Troubleshooting

Topics Covered

• Integrate Active Directory and authentication requirements during migration
• Use Azure Resource Manager templates and repeatable deployment practices
• Apply security, reliability, cost, operations, and performance recommendations
• Security, reliability, performance, support, and operational controls
• Common failure patterns, diagnostic evidence, and root-cause analysis
• Corrective actions, rollback considerations, and reusable runbook updates

Guided Practice Steps

1. Translate the lesson requirement into a clear PR-602: Migrate and Secure Windows Server and SQL Server (Migrate Compute) implementation or analysis objective.
2. Document assumptions, selected tools or features, dependencies, risks, and expected results.
3. Perform the guided task, capture evidence, and compare the result with the acceptance criteria.
4. Record issues, corrective actions, and a reusable operational or development note.

Practical Activity

Review a migration incident and strengthen identity, networking, security, and resilience controls.

• Define the scenario, inputs, constraints, and expected outcome.
• Complete the activity and preserve screenshots, outputs, logs, code, or decision evidence.
• Review the result, identify gaps, and document corrective or improvement actions.

Validation Checklist

• The stated requirement and expected outcome are clear.
• Configuration, code, data, or design decisions are documented.
• Normal, boundary, failure, security, and operational considerations are reviewed.
• Evidence supports the conclusion and the next action is prioritized.

Lesson Outcome

Learners can explain and apply Security, Identity, Reliability, Cost, Performance, and Troubleshooting within a realistic PR-602: Migrate and Secure Windows Server and SQL Server (Migrate Compute) scenario and support the result with validation evidence.
