This exam was in beta for some time and was recently released proper in February 2019. Passing this exam is one requirement to earn the &ldquo;Microsoft Certified: Azure DevOps Engineer&rdquo; certification, the other being an &ldquo;Azure Administrator Associate&rdquo; or &ldquo;Azure Developer Associate&rdquo;. Going forward, most Microsoft certifications are moving to a <a href="https://buildazure.com/2018/09/24/introducing-role-based-microsoft-azure-certification-shakeup/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreffer">job-role based</a> (great take by Chris Pietschmann at Build Azure) approach, which in my opinion is a good move, as it allows folks to focus on passing exams that contain content that will directly be used on the job.

Because of this, I am taking the AZ-203 exam, which is titled &ldquo;Developing Solutions for Microsoft Azure&rdquo;. This exam was in beta for some time and was recently released proper in January 2019. Developers used to the Microsoft certification world will see this exam as a replacement for 70-532, which is the older iteration of Azure technology geared for developers. Passing this exam will reward developers with the &ldquo;Microsoft Certified Azure Developer Associate&rdquo; certification. Going forward, most Microsoft certifications are moving to a <a href="https://buildazure.com/2018/09/24/introducing-role-based-microsoft-azure-certification-shakeup/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreffer">job-role based</a> (great take by Chris Pietschmann at Build Azure) approach, which in my opinion is a good move, as it allows folks to focus on passing exams that contain content that will directly be used on the job.
