Program narrative

You work through listener misconfigurations we collected from anonymous incident retrospectives, then rebuild a clean topology on paper before touching the lab VMs.

Included rehearsals

  • Seed mode comparisons with explicit tradeoffs
  • Quorum math worksheets you can reuse at work
  • Readable secondary routing lab with measured RPO/RTO language
  • Distributed availability group sketch session
  • Patch orchestration tabletop with rollback branches
  • Health model for synchronous commit latency
  • Office-hour recordings on certificate binding mistakes

Outcomes you can evidence

  1. Draft a listener plan that names subnets and TTL assumptions
  2. Justify quorum changes using the worksheet provided
  3. Capture a post-failover validation list suitable for auditors

FAQ

Hardware requirements?

A laptop with 16GB RAM and local SSD is recommended. Labs stream from our sandbox; you do not need a GPU.

Can teams attend together?

Yes, with a shared workbook. Individual accountability checkpoints remain per learner.

Is cross-region replication included?

We touch distributed availability groups at a planning depth only; building them across clouds is not included.

Experience notes

The quorum worksheet alone paid for the course. The readable routing lab assumed a cleaner network than ours, so I had to adapt, which the instructor encouraged.
