Track Microsoft AZ-305 practice status for Azure Architect, review the route, and request an IT Mastery practice update.
On this page
AZ-305 is Microsoft’s Azure solutions architect design exam for candidates who need to justify service selection under security, governance, resilience, performance, and cost constraints.
This page tracks the AZ-305 practice availability for IT Mastery. Full simulator practice is not live yet, but you can review the exam snapshot, topic coverage, and related live Azure practice options.
Who AZ-305 is for
architects designing Azure solutions across identity, networking, storage, governance, continuity, and hybrid integration
candidates moving beyond hands-on administration into architecture trade-offs and design justification
teams deciding between Azure administrator, developer, and architect paths and needing the page that matches design-level questions

What AZ-305 questions usually test
choosing the right Azure architecture for identity, governance, networking, storage, and continuity requirements in the same scenario
reading the constraint that matters most first: cost, security, region strategy, hybrid need, operational overhead, or resilience target
comparing multiple valid Azure designs and defending the one that is simpler to operate and scale
mapping administrator-level resource behavior into architect-level decisions about topology, policy, and long-term fit
How to prepare while practice is not live yet
Start with identity/governance and infrastructure design, because AZ-305 usually rewards the candidate who reads scope, policy, and topology constraints correctly first.
Practice naming the trade-off behind each answer choice: simpler operations, stronger resilience, lower cost, easier compliance, or better hybrid fit.
