questions will not appear in the review screen.
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?
A. |
B. |
Correct Answer : B. No
Description :
Section: Describe Core Azure Services
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.

B. |
Correct Answer : B. Yes
Description :
Section: Describe core solutions and management tools on Azure
A PowerShell script is a file that contains PowerShell cmdlets and code. A PowerShell script needs to be run in
PowerShell.
In this question, the computer has the Azure PowerShell module installed. Therefore, this solution does meet
the goal.

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?
A. |
B. |
C. |
D. |
Correct Answer : D. elasticity
Description :
Elasticity in this case is the ability to provide additional compute resource when needed and reduce the compute resource when not needed to reduce costs. Autoscaling is an example of elasticity.
Elastic computing is the ability to quickly expand or decrease computer processing, memory and storage resources to meet changing demands without worrying about capacity planning and engineering for peak usage. Typically controlled by system monitoring tools, elastic computing matches the amount of resources allocated to the amount of resources actually needed without disrupting operations. With cloud elasticity, a company avoids paying for unused capacity or idle resources and doesn’t have to worry about investing in the purchase or maintenance of additional resources and equipment.

You have an Azure subscription named Subscription1. You sign in to the Azure portal and create a resource
group named RG1.
From Azure documentation, you have the following command that creates a virtual machine named VM1.
az vm create --resource-group RG1 --name VM1 --image UbuntuLTS --generate-ssh-keys
You need to create VM1 in Subscription1 by using the command.
Solution: From the Azure portal, launch Azure Cloud Shell and select Bash. Run the command in Cloud Shell.
Does this meet the goal?
A. |
B. |
Correct Answer : A. Yes
Description :
Section: Describe core solutions and management tools on Azure
The command can be run in the Azure Cloud Shell.
The Azure Cloud Shell is a free interactive shell. It has common Azure tools preinstalled and configured to use
with your account.
To open the Cloud Shell, just select Try it from the upper right corner of a code block. You can also launch
Cloud Shell in a separate browser tab by going to https://shell.azure.com/bash.

Correct Answer : C. the product of both SLAs, which equals 99.94 percent
Description :
Section: Describe Azure cost management and Service Level Agreements
Composite SLAs involve multiple services supporting an application, each with differing levels of availability. For
example, consider an App Service web app that writes to Azure SQL Database. At the time of this writing, these
Azure services have the following SLAs:
App Service web apps = 99.95%
SQL Database = 99.99%
What is the maximum downtime you would expect for this application? If either service fails, the whole
application fails. The probability of each service failing is independent, so the composite SLA for this application
is 99.95% × 99.99% = 99.94%. That's lower than the individual SLAs, which isn't surprising because an
application that relies on multiple services has more potential failure points.

For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select No.

Correct Answer : B. No, Yes, No
Description :
Box 1: No
You cannot add physical servers to the public cloud. You can only deploy virtual servers in the public cloud.
You can extend a private cloud by deploying virtual servers in a public cloud. This would create a hybrid cloud.
Box 2: Yes
A hybrid cloud is a combination of a private cloud and public cloud. Therefore, to create a hybrid cloud, you must deploy resources to a public cloud.
Box 3: No.
It is not true that a private cloud must be disconnected from the Internet. Private clouds can be and most commonly are connected to the Internet. “Private cloud” means that the physical servers are managed by you.
It does not mean that it is disconnected from the Internet.

Your company plans to move several servers to Azure.
The company’s compliance policy states that a server named FinServer must be on a separate network
segment.
You are evaluating which Azure services can be used to meet the compliance policy requirements.
Which Azure solution should you recommend?
A. |
B. |
C. |
D. |
Correct Answer : D. a virtual network for FinServer and another virtual network for all the other servers
Description :
Section: Describe Core Azure Services
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.

Azure Advisor provides you with a consistent, consolidated view of recommendations for all your Azure
resources. It integrates with Azure Security Center to bring you security recommendations. You can get security
recommendations from the Security tab on the Advisor dashboard. Examples of recommendations include
restricting access to virtual machines by configuring Network Security Groups, enabling storage encryption,
installing vulnerability assessment solutions.
However, Azure Advisor does not provide recommendations on how to improve the security of an Azure AD
environment.
Box 2: Yes
Advisor helps you optimize and reduce your overall Azure spend by identifying idle and underutilized resources.
You can get cost recommendations from the Cost tab on the Advisor dashboard.
Box 3: No.
Azure Advisor does not provide recommendations on how to configure network settings on Azure virtual
machines.
