3. Question 123 · 232 in bank

   Note: This question is part of a series of questions that present the same scenario. Each question in the series contains a unique solution that might meet the stated goals. Some question sets might have more than one correct solution, while others might not have a correct solution. After you answer a question in this section, you will NOT be able to return to it. As a result, these questions will not appear in the review screen. You need to deploy resources to host a stateless web app in an Azure subscription. The solution must meet the following requirements: ✑ Provide access to the full .NET framework. Provide redundancy if an Azure region fails.

   

   ✑ Grant administrators access to the operating system to install custom application dependencies. Solution: You deploy two Azure virtual machines to two Azure regions, and you create an Azure Traffic Manager profile. Does this meet the goal?

   • AYes
   • BNo

   Show answer

   Answer: A

   Explanation

   A. Yes. This solution meets the goal. By deploying two Azure virtual machines in two separate Azure regions, you provide redundancy if one of the regions fails. Azure Traffic Manager can be used to distribute traffic between the virtual machines in different regions, ensuring high availability. Additionally, deploying Azure virtual machines allows you to have access to the full .NET Framework and grants administrators the ability to access the operating system to install custom application dependencies.

The solution must meet the following requirements: ✑ Provide access to the full .NET framework. ✑ Provide redundancy if an Azure region fails. ✑ Grant administrators access to the operating system to install custom application dependencies. Solution: You deploy two Azure virtual machines to two Azure regions, and you deploy an Azure Application Gateway. Does this meet the goal?

   • AYes
   • BNo

   Show answer

   Answer: B

   Explanation

   B. No While Azure Application Gateway is a powerful tool for handling application traffic at the application layer and can assist with routing, load balancing, and other functions, it operates within a single region. It doesn't automatically provide geo-redundancy across multiple Azure regions. For redundancy across regions, Azure Traffic Manager or Azure Front Door would be more suitable. They operate at the DNS level and are designed to route traffic across different regions for high availability and failover purposes. So, in this case, deploying two Azure virtual machines to two Azure regions and deploying an Azure Application Gateway would not fully meet the stated goals due to the lack of a regional failover strategy.

5. Question 125 · 232 in bank

   HOTSPOT - You plan to create an Azure Storage account that will host file shares. The shares will be accessed from on-premises applications that are transaction intensive. You need to recommend a solution to minimize latency when accessing the file shares. The solution must provide the highest-level of resiliency for the selected storage tier. What should you include in the recommendation? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point. Hot Area:

   Answer: See figure below

   Explanation

   Box 1: Premium - Premium: Premium file shares are backed by solid-state drives (SSDs) and provide consistent high performance and low latency, within single-digit milliseconds for most IO operations, for IO-intensive workloads. Incorrect Answers: ✑ Hot: Hot file shares offer storage optimized for general purpose file sharing scenarios such as team shares. Hot file shares are offered on the standard storage hardware backed by HDDs. ✑ Transaction optimized: Transaction optimized file shares enable transaction heavy workloads that don't need the latency offered by premium file shares. Transaction optimized file shares are offered on the standard storage hardware backed by hard disk drives (HDDs). Transaction optimized has historically been called "standard", however this refers to the storage media type rather than the tier itself (the hot and cool are also "standard" tiers, because they are on standard storage hardware). Box 2: Zone-redundant storage (ZRS): Premium Azure file shares only support LRS and ZRS. Zone-redundant storage (ZRS): With ZRS, three copies of each file stored, however these copies are physically isolated in three distinct storage clusters in different Azure availability zones.

The solution must meet the following requirements: ✑ Provide access to the full .NET framework. ✑ Provide redundancy if an Azure region fails. ✑ Grant administrators access to the operating system to install custom application dependencies. Solution: You deploy an Azure virtual machine scale set that uses autoscaling. Does this meet the goal?

   • AYes
   • BNo

   Show answer

   Answer: B

   Explanation

   A virtual machine scale set with autoscaling can meet the requirement of providing access to the full .NET framework and granting administrators access to the operating system to install custom application dependencies. However, it may not be the best solution for providing redundancy if an Azure region fails. To provide redundancy if an Azure region fails, it is recommended to deploy the stateless web app across multiple regions using Azure App Service. Azure App Service provides built-in redundancy and failover support across regions. Additionally, Azure App Service can also provide access to the full .NET framework and grant administrators access to the operating system. Therefore, the recommended solution would be to deploy the stateless web app using Azure App Service to provide redundancy and meet all the specified requirements.
