The foremost thing that candidates should know about the AZ-120 exam is that it is a specialty certification exam. After qualifying the exam, you will get a “Microsoft Certified: Azure for SAP Workloads” specialty certification. The candidates for the AZ-120 exam are generally engineers and architects who have to make recommendations for services to manage SAP workloads on Azure. The job role of an SAP on Azure professional also involves optimization of resources for ensuring optimal resiliency, scalability, size, provisioning, monitoring, and performance. In addition, candidates will have to ensure compliance with industry standards specifically suitable for long-term operations of an SAP solution.
