Audience Profile

Candidates for the Windows Server Hybrid Administrator Associate certification should have
subject matter expertise in configuring and managing Windows Server on-premises, hybrid, and
infrastructure as a service (IaaS) platform workloads.

Responsibilities for this role include integrating Windows Server environments with Azure
services and managing Windows Server in on-premises networks. This role manages and
maintains Windows Server IaaS workloads in Azure, in addition to migrating and deploying
workloads to Azure.

This role typically collaborates with Azure administrators, enterprise architects, Microsoft 365
administrators, and network engineers.

Candidates for this exam administer core Windows Server workloads using on-premises, hybrid,
and cloud technologies. These professionals should have expertise in implementing and
managing on-premises and hybrid solutions, such as identity, management, compute,
networking, and storage. They use administrative tools and technologies, such as Windows
Admin Center, PowerShell, Azure Arc, and IaaS virtual machine administration.

A candidate for this exam should have extensive experience working with Windows Server
operating systems.
