The Microsoft Azure Infrastructure and Deployment (exam code AZ-100) is the exam you pass to earn the Microsoft Certified: Azure Administrator Associate (retired path) certification, a credential at the Associate level. It is also connected with related credentials such as AZ-101, AZ-103, AZ-104. If you are mapping out a certification path with Microsoft, this exam is a milestone worth planning around.
The AZ-100 exam includes 40-60 questions, and you have 150-180 to complete them. With that many questions on the clock, pacing is part of the challenge: divide your time into rough blocks as you go, and flag the items that stall you so you can circle back at the end instead of burning minutes on a single question. A week or two before your exam date, sit at least one full timed session in the Actual4Dumps test engine under the same time limit, so the pace feels familiar rather than frantic on the day.
You need 700/1000 to pass the AZ-100 exam, and the official registration fee is $165 USD. That fee is due again in full for every retake, which makes thorough preparation the cheaper investment by far. Before you book your seat, test yourself with the Actual4Dumps practice questions until you are scoring comfortably above the passing mark on a consistent basis — it is the simplest way to avoid paying for the same exam twice.
No mandatory prerequisites; recommended Azure administration experience, PowerShell, CLI, Azure Portal, ARM templates
