  • 2. 

    An organization that hosts its infrastructure in a private cloud can close its data center.

    • No change is needed.

    •   in a hybrid cloud

    •   in the public cloud

    • On a Hyper-V host

    Correct Answer
    A.   in the public cloud
    Explanation
    An organization that hosts its infrastructure in a private cloud can close its data center. This means that they have the option to move their infrastructure to the public cloud, where they can leverage the services and resources provided by a third-party cloud service provider. By doing so, they can eliminate the need for maintaining and managing their own data center, resulting in cost savings and increased flexibility.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    What are the two characteristics of the public cloud? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.

    •  dedicated hardware

    •   unsecured connections

    •   limited storage

    •  metered pricing

    •   self-service management

    Correct Answer(s)
    A.  metered pricing
    A.   self-service management
    Explanation
    The two characteristics of the public cloud are metered pricing and self-service management. Metered pricing refers to the pay-as-you-go model where users are charged based on their actual usage of cloud resources. This allows for cost optimization and flexibility. Self-service management means that users have control and can manage their own cloud resources without the need for manual intervention from the cloud provider. This enables users to easily provision, configure, and scale their resources as needed, providing convenience and agility.

    Your company plans to migrate all its data and resources to Azure. The company’s migration plan states that only Platform as a Service (PaaS) solutions must be used in Azure. You need to deploy an Azure environment that meets the company migration plan. Solution: You create an Azure App Service and Azure Storage accounts. Does this meet the goal?

    • Yes

    • No

    Correct Answer
    A. No
    Explanation
    No, this does not meet the goal. While creating an Azure App Service and Azure Storage accounts is a step towards using PaaS solutions, it is not the only requirement. The company's migration plan states that ONLY PaaS solutions must be used. This means that other infrastructure services such as virtual machines or containers should not be used. Therefore, additional steps need to be taken to ensure that all data and resources are migrated to PaaS solutions in Azure.

  • 5. 

    Your company plans to migrate all its data and resources to Azure. The company’s migration plan states that only Platform as a Service (PaaS) solutions must be used in Azure. You need to deploy an Azure environment that meets the company migration plan. Solution: You create an Azure App Service and Azure SQL databases Does this meet the goal?

    • Yes

    • No

    Correct Answer
    A. Yes
    Explanation
    Yes, this solution meets the company's migration plan because Azure App Service and Azure SQL databases are both Platform as a Service (PaaS) solutions in Azure. By deploying these services, the company is adhering to their plan of using only PaaS solutions for the migration.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    Your company hosts an accounting application named App1 that is used by all the customers of the company. App1 has low usage during the first three weeks of each month and very high usage during the last week of each month. Which benefit of Azure Cloud Services supports cost management for this type of usage pattern?

    •  high availability

    •   high latency

    •  elasticity

    •  load balancing

    Correct Answer
    A.  elasticity
    Explanation
    Elasticity is the correct answer because it allows the company to easily scale up or down the resources allocated to the accounting application based on the usage pattern. During the low usage periods, the company can reduce the resources to save costs, and during the high usage period, they can quickly scale up to meet the increased demand. This flexibility helps in optimizing costs and ensuring that the application performs well during peak times without overprovisioning resources during off-peak times.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    You plan to migrate a web application to Azure. The web application is accessed by external users. You need to recommend a cloud deployment solution to minimize the amount of administrative effort used to manage the web application. What should you include in the recommendation?

    • Software as a Service (SaaS)

    •   Platform as a Service (PaaS)

    • Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)

    •   Database as a Service (DaaS

    Correct Answer
    A.   Platform as a Service (PaaS)
    Explanation
    The recommendation should include Platform as a Service (PaaS) because it provides a fully managed platform for hosting and managing the web application. With PaaS, the cloud provider takes care of the underlying infrastructure, including hardware, operating system, and networking, allowing the organization to focus on developing and managing the application itself. This minimizes the administrative effort required to manage the web application as the cloud provider handles most of the operational tasks.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    You have an on-premises network that contains 100 servers. You need to recommend a solution that provides additional resources to your users. The solution must minimize capital and operational expenditure costs. What should you include in the recommendation?

    •  a complete migration to the public cloud

    •   an additional data center

    • A private cloud

    • A hybrid cloud

    Correct Answer
    A. A hybrid cloud
    Explanation
    Explanation: A hybrid cloud is a combination of a private cloud and a public cloud. Capital expenditure is the spending of money up-front for infrastructure such as new servers. With a hybrid cloud, you can continue to use the on-premises servers while adding new servers in the public cloud (Azure for example). Adding new servers in Azure minimizes the capital expenditure costs as you are not paying for new servers as you would if you deployed new server on-premises

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    You plan to deploy several Azure virtual machines. You need to ensure that the services running on the virtual machines are available if a single data center fails. Solution: You deploy the virtual machines to two or more scale sets. Does this meet the goal?

    • Yes

    • No

    Correct Answer
    A. No
    Explanation
    Explanation:

    This answer does not specify that the scale set will be configured across multiple data centers so this solution does not meet the goal.

    Azure virtual machine scale sets let you create and manage a group of load balanced VMs. The number of VM instances can automatically increase or decrease in response to demand or a defined schedule. Scale sets provide high availability to your applications, and allow you to centrally manage, configure, and update many
    VMs.
    Virtual machines in a scale set can be deployed across multiple update domains and fault domains to maximize availability and resilience to outages due to data center outages, and planned or unplanned maintenance events.

  • 10. 

    You plan to deploy several Azure virtual machines. You need to ensure that the services running on the virtual machines are available if a single data center fails. Solution: You deploy the virtual machines to two or more availability zones. Does this meet the goal?

    • Yes

    • No

    Correct Answer
    A. Yes
    Explanation
    Explanation:

    Availability zones expand the level of control you have to maintain the availability of the applications and data on your VMs. An Availability Zone is a physically separate zone, within an Azure region. There are three Availability Zones per supported Azure region.

    Each Availability Zone has a distinct power source, network, and cooling. By architecting your solutions to use replicated VMs in zones, you can protect your apps
    and data from the loss of a datacenter. If one zone is compromised, then replicated apps and data are instantly available in another zone.

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

    You plan to deploy several Azure virtual machines. You need to ensure that the services running on the virtual machines are available if a single data center fails. Solution: You deploy the virtual machines to two or more regions. Does this meet the goal?

    • Yes

    • No

    Correct Answer
    A. Yes
    Explanation
    By deploying the virtual machines to two or more regions, you are deploying the virtual machines to multiple datacenters. This will ensure that the services running on the virtual machines are available if a single data center fails.
    Azure operates in multiple datacenters around the world. These datacenters are grouped in to geographic regions, giving you flexibility in choosing where to build your applications.

    You create Azure resources in defined geographic regions like 'West US', 'North Europe', or 'Southeast Asia'. You can review the list of regions and their locations.

    Within each region, multiple datacenters exist to provide for redundancy and availability.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    You have 1,000 virtual machines hosted on the Hyper-V hosts in a data center. You plan to migrate all the virtual machines to an Azure pay-as-you-go subscription. You need to identify which expenditure model to use for the planned Azure solution. Which expenditure model should you identify?

    • Operational

    • Elastic

    • Capital

    •   scalable

    Correct Answer
    A. Operational
    Explanation
    One of the major changes that you will face when you move from on-premises cloud to the public cloud is the switch from capital expenditure (buying hardware) to operating expenditure (paying for service as you use it). This switch also requires more careful management of your costs. The benefit of the cloud is that you can fundamentally and positively affect the cost of a service you use by merely shutting down or resizing it when it's not needed.

    • An Azure web app

    • An Azure virtual machine

    • An Azure logic app

    •   an Azure SQL database

    Correct Answer
    A. An Azure virtual machine

    A team of developers at your company plans to deploy, and then remove, 50 virtual machines each week. All the virtual machines are configured by using Azure Resource Manager templates. You need to recommend which Azure service will minimize the administrative effort required to deploy and remove the virtual machines. What should you recommend?

    •   Azure Reserved Virtual Machine (VM) Instances

    • Azure DevTest Labs

    • Azure virtual machine scale sets

    • Microsoft Managed Desktop

    Correct Answer
    A. Azure DevTest Labs
    Explanation
    DevTest Labs creates labs consisting of pre-configured bases or Azure Resource Manager templates.
    By using DevTest Labs, you can test the latest versions of your applications by doing the following tasks:
    Quickly provision Windows and Linux environments by using reusable templates and artifacts.
    Easily integrate your deployment pipeline with DevTest Labs to provision on-demand environments.
    Scale up your load testing by provisioning multiple test agents and create pre-provisioned environments for training and demos.

    Rate this question:

  • 15. 

    You plan to deploy several Azure virtual machines. You need to ensure that the services running on the virtual machines are available if a single data center fails. Solution: You deploy the virtual machines to two or more resource groups. Does this meet the goal?

    • Yes

    • No

    Correct Answer
    A. No
    Explanation
    A resource group is a logical container for Azure resources. When you create a resource group, you specify which location to create the resource group in. However, when you create a virtual machine and place it in the resource group, the virtual machine can still be in a different location (different datacenter).

    Therefore, creating multiple resource groups, even if they are in separate datacenters does not ensure that the services running on the virtual machines are available if a single data center fails.

    Explanation
    Networks in Azure are known as virtual networks. A virtual network can have multiple IP address spaces and multiple subnets. Azure automatically routes traffic between different subnets within a virtual network.
    The question states that FinServer must be on a separate network segment. The only way to separate FinServer from the other servers in networking terms is to place the server in a different virtual network to the other servers.

    You plan to map a network drive from several computers that run Windows 10 to Azure Storage. You need to create a storage solution in Azure for the planned mapped drive. What should you create?

    • An Azure SQL database

    •   a virtual machine data disk

    •   a Files service in a storage account

    • A Blobs service in a storage account

    Correct Answer
    A.   a Files service in a storage account
    Explanation
    Explanation:
    Azure Files is Microsoft's easy-to-use cloud file system. Azure file shares can be seamlessly used in Windows and Windows Server. To use an Azure file share with Windows, you must either mount it, which means assigning it a drive letter or mount point path, or access it via its UNC path. Unlike other SMB shares you may have interacted with, such as those hosted on a Windows Server, Linux Samba server, or NAS device, Azure file shares do not currently support Kerberos authentication with your Active Directory (AD) or Azure Active Directory (AAD) identity, although this is a feature we are working on.
    Instead, you must access your Azure file share with the storage account key for the storage account containing your Azure file share. A storage account key is an administrator key for a storage account, including administrator permissions to all files and folders within the file share you're accessing, and for all file shares and
    other storage resources (blobs, queues, tables, etc) contained within your storage account.

    Your company plans to migrate all its network resources to Azure. You need to start the planning process by exploring Azure. What should you create first?

    • A subscription

    • A resource group

    • A virtual network

    • A management group

    Correct Answer
    A. A subscription
    Explanation
    The first thing you create in Azure is a subscription. You can think of an Azure subscription as an ‘Azure account’. You get billed per subscription.

    A subscription is an agreement with Microsoft to use one or more Microsoft cloud platforms or services, for which charges accrue based on either a per-user
    license fee or on cloud-based resource consumption.

    Microsoft's Software as a Service (SaaS)-based cloud offerings (Office 365, Intune/EMS, and Dynamics 365) charge per-user license fees.

    Microsoft's Platform as a Service (PaaS) and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) cloud offerings (Azure) charge based on cloud resource consumption.
    You can also use a trial subscription, but the subscription expires after a specific amount of time or consumption charges. You can convert a trial subscription to a
    paid subscription.

    Organizations can have multiple subscriptions for Microsoft's cloud offerings.

    You have an on-premises application that sends email notifications automatically based on a rule. You plan to migrate the application to Azure. You need to recommend a serverless computing solution for the application. What should you include in the recommendation?

    • A web app

    • A server image in Azure Marketplace

    • A logic app

    • An API app

    Correct Answer
    A. A logic app
    Explanation
    Azure Logic Apps is a cloud service that helps you schedule, automate, and orchestrate tasks, business processes, and workflows when you need to integrate
    apps, data, systems, and services across enterprises or organizations. Logic Apps simplifies how you design and build scalable solutions for app integration, data
    integration, system integration, enterprise application integration (EAI), and business-to-business (B2B) communication, whether in the cloud, on premises, or both.
    For example, here are just a few workloads you can automate with logic apps:
    Process and route orders across on-premises systems and cloud services.
    Send email notifications with Office 365 when events happen in various systems, apps, and services.

    Move uploaded files from an SFTP or FTP server to Azure Storage.
    Monitor tweets for a specific subject, analyze the sentiment, and create alerts or tasks for items that need review.

    You plan to deploy a website to Azure. The website will be accessed by users worldwide and will host large video files. You need to recommend which Azure feature must be used to provide the best video playback experience. What should you recommend?

    • An application gateway

    • An Azure ExpressRoute circuit

    • A content delivery network (CDN)

    • An Azure Traffic Manager profile

    Correct Answer
    A. A content delivery network (CDN)
    Explanation
    The question states that users are located worldwide and will be downloading large video files. The video playback experience would be improved if they can
    download the video from servers in the same region as the users. We can achieve this by using a content deliver network.

    A content delivery network (CDN) is a distributed network of servers that can efficiently deliver web content to users. CDNs store cached content on edge servers in
    point-of-presence (POP) locations that are close to end users, to minimize latency.
    Azure Content Delivery Network (CDN) offers developers a global solution for rapidly delivering high-bandwidth content to users by caching their content at
    strategically placed physical nodes across the world. Azure CDN can also accelerate dynamic content, which cannot be cached, by leveraging various network
    optimizations using CDN POPs. For example, route optimization to bypass Border Gateway Protocol (BGP).

    The benefits of using Azure CDN to deliver web site assets include:
    Better performance and improved user experience for end users, especially when using applications in which multiple round-trips are required to load content.
    Large scaling to better handle instantaneous high loads, such as the start of a product launch event. Distribution of user requests and serving of content directly from edge servers so that less traffic is sent to the origin server.

    Your company plans to deploy several million sensors that will upload data to Azure. You need to identify which Azure resources must be created to support the planned solution. Which two Azure resources should you identify? Each correct answer presents part of the solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

    • Azure Data Lake

    • Azure Queue storage

    • Azure File Storage

    • Azure IoT Hub

    • Azure Notification Hubs

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Azure Data Lake
    A. Azure Notification Hubs
    Explanation
    IoT Hub (Internet of things Hub) provides data from millions of sensors.
    IoT Hub is a managed service, hosted in the cloud, that acts as a central message hub for bi-directional communication between your IoT application and the
    devices it manages. You can use Azure IoT Hub to build IoT solutions with reliable and secure communications between millions of IoT devices and a cloud-hosted
    solution backend. You can connect virtually any device to IoT Hub.
    There are two storage services IoT Hub can route messages to -- Azure Blob Storage and Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 (ADLS Gen2) accounts. Azure Data
    Lake Storage accounts are hierarchical namespace-enabled storage accounts built on top of blob storage. Both of these use blobs for their storage.

    Data that is stored in the Archive access tier of an Azure Storage account can be accessed at any time by using azcopy.exe. Instructions: Review the underlined text. If it makes the statement correct, select “No change is needed”. If the statement is incorrect, select the answer choice that makes the statement correct.

    • No change is needed.

    • Can only be read by using Azure Backup

    • Must be restored before the data can be accessed

    • Must be rehydrated before the data can be accessed

    Correct Answer
    A. Must be rehydrated before the data can be accessed
    Explanation
    Azure storage offers different access tiers: hot, cool and archive.

    The archive access tier has the lowest storage cost. But it has higher data retrieval costs compared to the hot and cool tiers. Data in the archive tier can take
    several hours to retrieve. While a blob is in archive storage, the blob data is offline and can't be read, overwritten, or modified. To read or download a blob in archive, you must first rehydrate it to an online tier.

    Example usage scenarios for the archive access tier include:
    Long-term backup, secondary backup, and archival datasets
    Original (raw) data that must be preserved, even after it has been processed into final usable form. Compliance and archival data that needs to be stored for a long time and is hardly ever accessed.
