Question

Difficulty: MediumCreate and Configure Azure Functions

An organization is designing a V4 Azure Function App to process large datasets. The functions have the following requirements:

* Individual function executions can take up to 2525 minutes to complete.
* The functions must connect securely to an Azure SQL Database using a private endpoint within an Azure Virtual Network (VNet).
* The hosting configuration must support scale-out to handle high-demand periods.

Which hosting plans can you use to meet these requirements? (Select all that apply.)

  1. Premium planAnswer
  2. Dedicated (App Service) plan (Standard tier or higher)Answer
  3. C
    Consumption plan
  4. D
    Dedicated (App Service) plan (Free or Shared tiers)

Answer

The Premium plan and the Dedicated (App Service) plan (Standard tier or higher) meet all requirements.
The Premium plan and the Dedicated (App Service) plan (Standard tier or higher) are correct. The Premium plan offers VNet integration, dynamic scaling, and supports an execution duration up to 6060 minutes (or unbounded). The Dedicated plan (Standard tier or higher) also supports VNet integration, has no execution duration limits, and supports autoscale rules.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Evaluate the execution duration requirement against Azure Functions hosting plans.
The execution duration is 2525 minutes, which exceeds the 1010-minute maximum limit of the Consumption plan but is supported by the Premium and Dedicated plans.
Hosting plans must support long-running processes without timing out.
2
Evaluate the network connectivity requirement.
The Premium plan and the Dedicated plan (Standard tier or higher) support regional VNet integration, whereas the Consumption plan and Free/Shared Dedicated tiers do not.
VNet integration is required to access the private endpoint of the Azure SQL Database.
3
Evaluate scaling capabilities for high-demand periods.
Both the Premium plan (event-based scaling) and the Dedicated plan (via autoscale rules) support scaling out.
The system must handle high-demand scale-out scenarios.
