Hands-On Azure Labs: Building Redundant Cloud Solutions

Lab Overview

In this lab, you will establish the second Virtual Network (vNet-East) and its accompanying subnet (Subnet-East) in the East US region. Having parallel virtual networks in different geographic regions is crucial for redundancy and high availability. By completing this lab, you will ensure that your cloud environment can support resources and services in both regions, preparing the foundation for cross-region load balancing and disaster recovery scenarios.

Learning Objectives

By completing this lab, you will be able to:

• • Create a separate virtual network in the East US region.
  • Configure a custom subnet to ensure proper IP address management and isolation.
  • Understand multi-region networking strategies in Azure.
  • Prepare for later labs that leverage geographically distributed resources.

Exam Relevance

The skills you learn in this lab are useful for these Azure certifications:

• • AZ-104 (Azure Administrator): Validates your proficiency in creating and managing network resources across different regions.
  • AZ-305 (Azure Solutions Architect): Enhances your ability to design and implement robust multi-region architectures for availability and resiliency.
