  • 29m
  • 29 questions
The Developing Azure Storage Solutions Competency (Intermediate Level) benchmark measures your ability to work with Azure Cosmos DB and Cosmos DB containers using a variety of tools and techniques, including SQL queries, the resource model, partitioning and horizontal scaling, and stored procedures. You will be evaluated on your skills in creating and managing storage accounts with Azure Blob Storage and Storage Explorer, uploading and managing blobs with .NET and the Azure Blob Storage client library for .NET, and using advanced features such as immutable storage and access tiers. A learner who scores high on this benchmark demonstrates that they have the skills to develop solutions that use Cosmos DB storage and Azure Blob Storage.
