I am a beginner in the IT world.
I would like to know what are the advantages of doing the Microsoft Azure PluralSight courses? What kind of It jobs could I Apply having this certificate?
Doing the Azure course on Pluralsight will give you knowledge of the Azure Cloud Computing platform from Microsoft. Azure is typically used for storing databases in the cloud or for deploying applications to a cloud environment or similar tasks.
While many companies look for developers who have experience with cloud platforms like Azure and AWS most often the person who performs Deployments, a task that brings an application from the Development stage to the stage where it is publicly available and usable, specifically specializes in that skill and those tools.
The position where a person is responsible for the deployment, integration, and maintenance of the application is typically called "Dev Ops".

What guidelines have been useful for folks who are looking to have a very large (100TB - PB) cloud database with multiple readers/writers (IoT) sources?
We expect to have a REDIS cache backed by either DynamoDB, Azure CosmosDB, or other (Not yet decided).
But is it a problem to have purely lambda and serverless to service the read/write requests? There are some guidelines from AWS about this:
https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/architecture/how-to-design-your-serverless-apps-for-massive-scale/
https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/compute/best-practices-for-organizing-larger-serverless-applications/
and one case study:
https://www.serverless.com/blog/how-droplr-scales-to-millions-serverless-framework
Your best bet for information like this is Azure Architecture Center that has articles on best practices and architectural guidance.
Regarding using Dynamo or Cosmos DB to back Redis, I can't offer any guidance on the efficacy for doing such a thing. What I can say is that I do see customers opt-out of using Redis altogether and use Dynamo or Cosmos as a key/value cache-layer because the latency is good enough.

We are looking for a cloud based solution for messaging queue. We have chosen RabbitMQ and we already have few app that are using this. RabbitMQ is hosted locally. For testing purposes it was ok, but right now when business is growing and we are looking into centralised RabbitMQ with HA we are looking into cloud solution.
My question is: which service would you recommend for RabbitMQ,
the options that we've found are:
cloudamqp.com/
https://addons.heroku.com/rabbitmq-bigwig
https://bitnami.com and use Azure
or
host it in Azure and manage by ourself - but we would like to avoid this as much as possible - not enough human resources to look after that.
What would you recommend?
my suggestion is http://cloudamqp.com - i use them for just about of all my RabbitMQ hosting needs, for production web apps.
it's a fully managed RabbitMQ hosting service. you don't have to worry about much, and you can get as large / scalable as you need. From very small and cheap, to enterprise level hosting with clustering, etc.

All these Azure technologies (Bots, FaaS, Logic Apps and Runbooks) are used to run schadule jobs.
I don't know when we should use these and which scenario we should use them.
YMMV, but here are some pretty good rule of thumbs:
Are you doing PowerShell based Automation work? If Yes, consider Azure Automation Runbooks.
Are you building a bot? If Yes, consider the Azure Bot Framework service.
Are you build a workflow that executes on a timer, especially one that integrates with other services (etc.)? If Yes, consider Logic Apps.
Are you writing generic application code? If Yes, consider Azure Functions.
If none of those fit, I'd be surprised, but you might try starting with Azure Functions since we're kind of an "Everything as a Service", but there is a reason we have the different products - they specialize to enable better productivity within their specialty (Bots, Automation, and Integration).
Note: I'm one of the PMs on the Azure Functions team here at Microsoft.

What costs less money when deployed on Amazon Cloud Node.js or Java Web Services?
Or when it does matter. We take into consideration only one way traffic (to server) for many clients.
They're both going to cost roughly the same in terms of hosting costs. In terms of development costs, however, things might be different:
Node is just Javascript -- it has a huge ecosystem and lots of new developers are using it -- since it's quite 'hip', it's easier to find people to hop onto new projects.
Java is old school and has been around forever, there are tons of 'senior' guys you can hire (for good $$).
Node is quite a bit faster to develop with. If you're building a small application, you might spend much less time developing it with Node than Java.
