List of questions
Question 11

You have an Azure subscription that contains an Azure Blob storage account named store1.
You have an on-premises file server named Setver1 that runs Windows Sewer 2016. Server1 stores 500 GB of company files. You need to store a copy of the company files from Server 1 in store1.
Which two possible Azure services achieve this goal? Each correct answer presents a complete solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point

Question 12

You have an Azure subscription that contains two applications named App1 and App2. App1 is a sales processing application. When a transaction in App1 requires shipping, a message is added to an Azure Storage account queue, and then App2 listens to the queue for relevant transactions.
In the future, additional applications will be added that will process some of the shipping requests based on the specific details of the transactions. You need to recommend a replacement for the storage account queue to ensure that each additional application will be able to read the relevant transactions. What should you recommend?
A queue allows processing of a message by a single consumer. In contrast to queues, topics and subscriptions provide a one-to-many form of communication in a publish and subscribe pattern. It's useful for scaling to large numbers of recipients. Each published message is made available to each subscription registered with the topic. Publisher sends a message to a topic and one or more subscribers receive a copy of the message, depending on filter rules set on these subscriptions.

Question 13

The application will host video files that range from 50 MB to 12 GB. The application will use certificate-based authentication and will be available to users on the internet. You need to recommend a storage option for the video files. The solution must provide the fastest read performance and must minimize storage costs. What should you recommend?
Blob Storage: Stores large amounts of unstructured data, such as text or binary data, that can be accessed from anywhere in the world via HTTP or HTTPS. You can use Blob storage to expose data publicly to the world, or to store application data privately.
Max file in Blob Storage. 4.77 TB.

Question 14

You ate designing a SQL database solution. The solution will include 20 databases that will be 20 GB each and have varying usage patterns. You need to recommend a database platform to host the databases. The solution must meet the following requirements:
β’ The compute resources allocated to the databases must scale dynamically.
β’ The solution must meet an SLA of 99.99% uptime.
β’ The solution must have reserved capacity.
β’ Compute charges must be minimized.
What should you include in the recommendation?
Azure SQL Database elastic pools are a simple, cost-effective solution for managing and scaling multiple databases that have varying and unpredictable usage demands. The databases in an elastic pool are on a single server and share a set number of resources at a set price. Elastic pools in Azure SQL Database enable SaaS developers to optimize the price performance for a group of databases within a prescribed budget while delivering performance elasticity for each database.
Guaranteed 99.995 percent uptime for SQL Database

Question 15

You are planning an Azure IoT Hub solution that will include 50,000 IoT devices.
Each device will stream data, including temperature, device ID, and time dat a. Approximately 50,000 records will be written every second. The data will be visualized in near real time. You need to recommend a service to store and query the data.
Which two services can you recommend? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
D: Time Series Insights is a fully managed service for time series data. In this architecture, Time Series Insights performs the roles of stream processing, data store, and analytics and reporting. It accepts streaming data from either IoT Hub or Event Hubs and stores, processes, analyzes, and displays the data in near real time.
C: The processed data is stored in an analytical data store, such as Azure Data Explorer, HBase, Azure Cosmos DB, Azure Data Lake, or Blob Storage.

Question 16

You are designing an application that will aggregate content for users.
You need to recommend a database solution for the application. The solution must meet the following requirements:
Support SQL commands.
Support multi-master writes.
Guarantee low latency read operations.
What should you include in the recommendation?
With Cosmos DB's novel multi-region (multi-master) writes replication protocol, every region supports both writes and reads. The multi-region writes capability also enables:
Unlimited elastic write and read scalability.
99.999% read and write availability all around the world.
Guaranteed reads and writes served in less than 10 milliseconds at the 99th percentile.

Question 17

You have SQL Server on an Azure virtual machine. The databases are written to nightly as part of a batch process. You need to recommend a disaster recovery solution for the dat a. The solution must meet the following requirements:
Provide the ability to recover in the event of a regional outage.
Support a recovery time objective (RTO) of 15 minutes.
Support a recovery point objective (RPO) of 24 hours.
Support automated recovery.
Minimize costs.
What should you include in the recommendation?
Replication with Azure Site Recover:
RTO is typically less than 15 minutes.
RPO: One hour for application consistency and five minutes for crash consistency.

Question 18

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 a Traffic Manager profile. Does this meet the goal?
Azure Traffic Manager is a DNS-based traffic load balancer that enables you to distribute traffic optimally to services across global Azure regions, while providing high availability and responsiveness. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/traffic-manager/traffic-manager-overview
Question 19

You need to deploy resources to host a stateless web app in an Azure subscription. The solution must meet the following requirements:
β’ Provide access to the full .NET framework.
β’ Provide redundancy if an Azure region fails.
β’ Grant administrators access to the operating system to install custom application dependencies.
Solution: You deploy an Azure virtual machine to two Azure regions, and you deploy an Azure Application Gateway. Does this meet the goal?
You need to deploy two Azure virtual machines to two Azure regions, but also create a Traffic Manager profile.
Question 20

You need to deploy resources to host a stateless web app in an Azure subscription. The solution must meet the following requirements:
β’ Provide access to the full .NET framework.
β’ Provide redundancy if an Azure region fails.
β’ Grant administrators access to the operating system to install custom application dependencies.
Solution: You deploy a Azure virtual machine scale set that uses autoscaling.
Does this meet the goal?
Instead, you should deploy two Azure virtual machines to two Azure regions, and you create a Traffic Manager profile.
