A logistics company is setting up its development environment in Microsoft Azure. The administrator creates a resource group named dev-logistics-rg in the Central US region. A developer needs to deploy a new storage account in the East US region to store transit logs. Which of the following describes the correct configuration for this deployment?
- ADeploy the storage account in the Central US region, because all resources in a resource group must inherit and use the resource group's location.
- BCreate a new resource group inside dev-logistics-rg, set its location to East US, and deploy the storage account within it.
- Deploy the storage account in the East US region and associate it with the dev-logistics-rg resource group, as resources can reside in a different region than their resource group.Answer
- DApply a region-override tag to dev-logistics-rg to temporarily change its location to East US during the storage account deployment.
Answer
Deploy the storage account in the East US region and associate it with the dev-logistics-rg resource group, as resources can reside in a different region than their resource group.
The correct option is correct because Azure resource groups are logical containers designed to group related resources for lifecycle management. The location of the resource group specifies where its metadata is stored, but the resources placed within that group can be deployed to any supported Azure region based on application requirements.
