Which configuration should the administrator use to meet these requirements?

A logistics company hosts multiple testing workloads on virtual machines in Azure. After running a baseline check, the cloud administrator finds that several virtual machines are consistently underutilized, with CPU consumption remaining below 5% for two weeks. The company wants to find specific, automated recommendations on how to optimize their spending by either downscaling or shutting down these specific resources. Which Azure tool or service should the administrator use to obtain these recommendations?
A financial services company is planning to migrate its applications to Microsoft Azure. The development team has the following hosting constraints:
* They need to run a web application that must automatically scale based on CPU usage and support continuous deployment from GitHub, but the team does not want to package the application as a container.

A systems administrator is reviewing a draft architecture document that outlines the deployment of a new environment using Azure Bicep templates. The draft makes the following assumptions:
1. A database resource group can be nested inside a virtual network resource group to consolidate management.
2. Every resource deployed by the template must share the same physical location as the containing resource group.
3. Bicep templates operate as imperative, step-by-step execution scripts that specify the order of resource creation.
Which of the following statements correctly evaluates the feasibility of these three assumptions in Azure?
An organization is planning to use Azure Blob Storage to store historical compliance data that will rarely be accessed. Is the following statement true: you can upload files directly to the Archive storage tier without first storing them in the Hot or Cool tiers?
An administrator assigns an Azure Policy definition with the Deny effect to a resource group to prevent the creation of virtual machines that lack a 'CostCenter' tag. A user who holds the Owner role for the Azure subscription attempts to deploy a new virtual machine without this tag to the resource group. What is the result of this deployment attempt?
A company's finance department wants to track and limit cloud spending for a new data warehousing project. The project's resources are deployed inside an Azure resource group named rg-data-warehouse. An administrator applies a tag named Project with a value of DataWarehouse directly to rg-data-warehouse, but does not apply any tags to the individual resources inside the group. To monitor this project's costs, the administrator configures a monthly budget in Azure Cost Management filtered by the tag Project: DataWarehouse. What is the result of this budget configuration on the tracking of the virtual machines and databases inside rg-data-warehouse?

Which Azure service should the officer use to view these personalized upcoming maintenance events?
