Exam overview
The AZ-120 exam sits at the intersection of two enterprise platforms that rarely overlap: SAP's ERP ecosystem and Microsoft's Azure infrastructure. The exam code AZ-120 corresponds to the full title "Planning and Administering Azure for SAP Workloads," a specialty-level assessment that assumes you already understand both worlds separately and now must prove you can integrate them under production constraints. Unlike AZ-104 which tests general Azure administration, AZ-120 presents scenario questions where a wrong VM series choice breaks SAP HANA certification, or a missing STONITH configuration voids the support agreement — the stakes are architecturally higher.
Microsoft strongly recommends holding the AZ-104 Azure Administrator Associate credential before attempting this exam, and for good reason: you need to configure ExpressRoute circuits, write Bicep templates for SAP-certified VM deployment, and troubleshoot Azure NetApp Files SMB permissions without referencing documentation. The official preparation course is AZ-120T00-A (3-day advanced classroom training), and the 7-part Azure for SAP Workloads Specialty learning series on Microsoft Learn walks through migration scenarios with SUM/DMO tooling. Because this is a specialty exam, the case studies are longer and more technically dense than associate-level assessments — you will read through multi-page SAP architectural requirement matrices and then answer eight to ten questions that build on each other.
Four domains shape the AZ-120 blueprint, with the heaviest weight split between migrating SAP workloads to Azure (25–30%) and designing infrastructure to support those workloads (25–30%). High availability and disaster recovery design (20–25%) and ongoing maintenance (20–25%) complete the assessment. A distinctive difficulty of this exam is the SAP-specific math: you must convert on-premises SAPS performance ratings into certified Azure M-series or E-series VM specifications, then match storage IOPS requirements to Ultra Disk or Premium SSD SKUs. The exam also tests Linux administration deeply — you need to know how to configure Pacemaker fencing agents and SUSE/RHEL cluster resources for SAP Central Services, not just conceptually but with the actual configuration file paths and command syntax.
The practice questions here mirror the four-domain distribution exactly, with extended case studies that reproduce the multi-page SAP architectural scenarios you will face at the test center. Each question includes a detailed explanation that walks through the architectural reasoning — why an M-series VM is required for SAP HANA production (not just recommended), how SAP RISE changes the networking and identity integration pattern, and when to choose Azure NetApp Files over Premium SSD for the SAP database layer. The downloadable PDF packages the same question bank for offline review, so you can practice SAPS sizing calculations, Pacemaker STONITH configuration steps, and Azure Monitor for SAP solutions alert rule setup during commutes or in environments without reliable internet.

What Our Customers Say 124 verified reviews
I was struggling with AZ-120 until I found this. The domain-based organization and instant feedback helped me identify weak areas quickly.
I’ve purchased a few Microsoft exam dumps over the years and this AZ-120 one is easily the best quality.
AZ-120 was harder than I expected but these questions prepared me well. The multi-select ones in particular were really close to the exam.
Quick shipping? LOL jk — instant access was great. Started studying AZ-120 questions right after purchase, no delays.
My colleague recommended this for AZ-120 and I’m glad I listened. Passed on my first go after two weeks of solid study.
The progress tracking feature for AZ-120 really motivated me. Seeing my improvement over time was incredibly satisfying.
Frequently Asked Questions
The deepest pitfalls are in areas that require non-Azure knowledge. You will encounter heavy scenario questions on Pacemaker clustering on SUSE/RHEL — including which fence agent device to configure for which Linux distribution, and how STONITH mechanisms interact with Azure VM serial console access. SAPS sizing calculations are another frequent failure point: the exam gives you an on-premises SAPS rating and asks you to select the correct Azure M-series VM size, then match the storage IOPS requirement to either Ultra Disk, Premium SSD, or Azure NetApp Files. Write Accelerator configuration for SAP HANA log volumes and SAP RISE networking constraints round out the most difficult topics.
No. Microsoft Learn access is a safety net, not a study strategy. The AZ-120 case studies are longer and more technically dense than associate-level exams — you may read through a three-page SAP architectural requirement matrix before answering ten locked-order questions. The exam clock does not pause while you browse and page-specific searches (Ctrl+F) are disabled, trying to find basic answers dynamically will cause you to run out of time. You must know Pacemaker cluster resource agent syntax and SAP HANA configuration parameters from memory.
If you score below 700 on your first attempt, you must wait 24 hours before rescheduling. For a third, fourth, or fifth attempt, a mandatory 14-day waiting period applies between bookings. Microsoft caps you at five attempts within any rolling 12-month window, and each retake requires full payment of the $165 exam fee. Because AZ-120 is a specialty-level exam with a smaller candidate pool, rescheduling may take longer than for associate-level exams.
The credential is valid for one year from your exam date. Within 180 days before expiration, you can renew for free by passing an unproctored, open-book renewal assessment on Microsoft Learn that covers only the features added in the past year — such as Azure networking changes for SAP RISE and Very Large Database (VLDB) migration paths. No retesting of the full exam is required.
Our mock exam reproduces the AZ-120 question formats: single-choice, multiple-response, drag-and-drop matching, hot area diagrams, drop-down configuration completion, and 1–2 extended case studies with complex SAP architectural requirement matrices. The practice test enforces the same 120-minute timer and presents scenario questions that require you to calculate SAPS-to-VM sizing, choose between Azure NetApp Files and Ultra Disk for SAP HANA log volumes, and configure Pacemaker STONITH fencing agents on SUSE/RHEL clusters — the same skills measured in the real exam.
Yes, the complete question bank is available as a downloadable PDF that packages all four domains in the same weighted distribution as the real exam. The PDF includes detailed answer explanations with references to official Azure and SAP documentation, Bicep template examples for SAP-certified VM deployment, and Azure Monitor for SAP solutions KQL query samples. You can use the PDF to review Pacemaker STONITH configuration steps, SAP RISE networking requirements, and Azure Site Recovery SAP HANA failover procedures while commuting or in environments without internet access.
Deploy a small SAP NetWeaver sandbox on Azure using marketplace SAP-calibrated images: configure an M-series VM for SAP HANA, attach Ultra Disk with Write Accelerator enabled for the log volume, and set up Pacemaker clustering with an Azure fence agent on SUSE Linux. Configure ExpressRoute or VPN connectivity to simulate hybrid connectivity, then deploy Azure Monitor for SAP solutions and create alert rules for database response time degradation. When you can complete a full SAP HANA scale-out deployment with Pacemaker STONITH fencing without referencing documentation, the AZ-120 scenario questions become straightforward applications of your hands-on experience.
