Question 281 · 370 in bank
HOTSPOT - You are designing an application that will use an Azure Data Lake Storage Gen 2 account to store petabytes of license plate photos from toll booths. The account will use zone-redundant storage (ZRS). You identify the following usage patterns: * The data will be accessed several times a day during the first 30 days after the data is created. The data must meet an availability SLA of 99.9%. * After 90 days, the data will be accessed infrequently but must be available within 30 seconds. * After 365 days, the data will be accessed infrequently but must be available within five minutes. You need to recommend a data retention solution. The solution must minimize costs. Which access tier should you recommend for each time frame? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point. Hot Area:
This is an interactive task on the real exam — a drag-and-drop, hotspot or ordering question. There is nothing to select here, so the answer is shown below for reference.

Answer: See figure below
Explanation
Box 1: Hot - The data will be accessed several times a day during the first 30 days after the data is created. The data must meet an availability SLA of 99.9%. Box 2: Cool - After 90 days, the data will be accessed infrequently but must be available within 30 seconds. Data in the Cool tier should be stored for a minimum of 30 days. When your data is stored in an online access tier (either Hot or Cool), users can access it immediately. The Hot tier is the best choice for data that is in active use, while the Cool tier is ideal for data that is accessed less frequently, but that still must be available for reading and writing. Box 3: Cool - After 365 days, the data will be accessed infrequently but must be available within five minutes. Incorrect: Not Archive: While a blob is in the Archive access tier, it's considered to be offline and can't be read or modified. In order to read or modify data in an archived blob, you must first rehydrate the blob to an online tier, either the Hot or Cool tier. Rehydration priority - When you rehydrate a blob, you can set the priority for the rehydration operation via the optional x-ms-rehydrate-priority header on a Set Blob Tier or Copy Blob operation. Rehydration priority options include: Standard priority: The rehydration request will be processed in the order it was received and may take up to 15 hours. High priority: The rehydration request will be prioritized over standard priority requests and may complete in less than one hour for objects under 10 GB in size.
