Question 1

What are AZ-800 and AZ-801?

Accepted Answer

AZ-800 and AZ-801 are the two Microsoft exams you'll have to take in order to earn the Windows Server Hybrid Administrator Associate certification. Together, they cover the skills and knowledge necessary to configure and manage Windows Server in on-prem and hybrid environments, and handle infrastructure as a service (IaaS) platform workloads. AZ-800 is focused on administering the core infrastructure of hybrid Windows Server while AZ-801 details managing its advanced services.

How hard are the exams for the Windows Server Hybrid Administrator Associate Certification Training (AZ-800 & AZ-801) cert?

AZ-800 and AZ-801 are moderately challenging tests of server administration skills – what makes them challenging is their emphasis on Microsoft's official expectations related to infrastructure management and familiarity with all advanced hybrid services (even the ones you and your organization might not use regularly). Both AZ-800 and AZ-801 have between 40 and 60 questions. Both exams have a maximum score of 1,000 points, and a passing score is 700.

Question 3

How much do the AZ-800 and AZ-801 certification exams cost?

Accepted Answer

Both AZ-800 and AZ-801 cost $165 to attempt, which means it will cost at least $330 to earn the Windows Server Hybrid Administrator Associate. Microsoft doesn't have any prerequisites for the AZ-800 or AZ-801, so you don't have to pay for any other exams or earn any other certs before you attempt them. On the other hand, Microsoft does recommend several years of experience with Windows Server operating systems.
