A company plans to deploy a multi-tier web application in Azure. The deployment architecture requires resources to be distributed across different geographical locations for high availability, while keeping billing and administrative access segregated for different departments.

Which two configuration guidelines are valid when designing the Azure resource hierarchy? (Select two)

When monitoring the internal performance metrics—such as CPU percentage and memory usage—of an individual Azure Virtual Machine, you must configure Azure Service Health to collect and display these resource-level metrics. Is this statement true or false?

A company plans to migrate its legacy remote desktop environment to Azure Virtual Desktop. Under the Azure shared responsibility model for Azure Virtual Desktop, Microsoft manages the virtualization infrastructure and control plane services, including the web portal, connection broker, and gateway. Is it true that Microsoft is also responsible for patching the operating systems and managing the applications installed on the session host virtual machines?

An organization wants to host a web application in Azure. They want a service that automatically handles hardware maintenance, operating system patching, and scaling of the web application, without requiring them to configure virtual machines or container orchestration. Which Azure service should they use?

Match each cloud model to the workload scenario that best illustrates its implementation.

An administrator is planning the resource hierarchy and governance model for a new Azure environment.

Determine if the following statement is true or false:

To simplify policy administration, an administrator can assign individual Azure resources, such as virtual machines and storage accounts, directly to an Azure management group.

An IT administrator is configuring a backup and disaster recovery strategy for an application hosted in Azure. The administrator is reviewing how Azure region pairs function to ensure data residency and service continuity during an outage. Which two statements are true regarding Azure region pairs? (Select TWO.)

A logistics company hosts its delivery tracking application in Microsoft Azure. The company wants to guarantee that the application can recover from unexpected database failures and continue to function with minimal disruption.

Which cloud benefit is primarily demonstrated by this ability to recover from failures and remain operational?

A company needs to host a new HTTP-based web API. The development team wants to deploy their application code directly to Azure without managing container configurations or configuring virtual machines. They also require that the underlying operating system is kept secure and patched by the cloud provider. Which Azure service should the company choose?

When creating a new Azure resource group, you must specify a region (location) for it. Which of the following statements correctly describes how this location relates to the resources placed within the group?

An organization is restructuring its Azure environment to comply with new corporate policies. The current resource hierarchy and setup are as follows:
- A parent management group named Corp-MG contains two subscriptions: Sub-Production and Sub-Testing.
- Sub-Production contains a resource group named RG-App located in the West US region.
- RG-App contains a virtual machine named VM-Web deployed in the East US region.

An administrator is tasked with planning the following three actions:
1. Apply a tag to the resource group RG-App and have it automatically apply to VM-Web for billing categorization.
2. Move the virtual machine VM-Web from RG-App in Sub-Production to a new resource group in Sub-Testing while keeping the virtual machine running in the East US region.
3. Create a new resource group named RG-Database inside the existing RG-App resource group to group database resources.

Which of the administrative actions are supported in Azure?

A software testing group deploys several test nodes on Azure VMs. Under the shared responsibility model, which management task is the responsibility of Microsoft?

A medical research laboratory deploys a group of virtual machines in Microsoft Azure to run data analysis software. Under the Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) model, which of the following components is Microsoft responsible for managing?

A company hosts a public-facing website on Azure App Service. The IT team needs to configure a monitoring solution to address two specific scenarios:

- Scenario 1: Receive alerts if Microsoft reports a global service outage or planned maintenance that affects all App Service instances in the East US region.
- Scenario 2: Track custom application metrics, such as page load speed and active user sessions, for their specific website instance.

Which services should the team use for each scenario?

A hotel chain adopts a cloud-based property management system (PMS) to coordinate room reservations and guest billing across all its locations. The system is fully hosted by the vendor, and hotel staff access it via a web browser. Under the cloud shared responsibility model, which of the following tasks is the responsibility of the hotel chain?

A financial institution operates its core banking ledger on dedicated hardware in a secure, on-premises data center to satisfy regulatory compliance. However, to handle seasonal spikes in user traffic, the customer-facing mobile banking portal is hosted on Microsoft Azure.

Which cloud deployment model is represented by this environment?

A construction firm subscribes to a cloud-based project scheduling tool to track build phases and coordinate subcontractor timelines. The application is hosted, patched, and maintained entirely by the cloud provider, and employees access it via a web browser.

Under the cloud shared responsibility model, which of the following responsibilities are retained by the construction firm? Select two.

An administrator creates a resource group named RG-Operations and sets its location to East US. The administrator needs to deploy a virtual machine that requires low latency for users in Europe. Which statement correctly describes the regional placement constraint for the new virtual machine?

An administrator creates a resource group named RG-Finance in the West US region. The administrator needs to deploy a database resource that must physically reside in the East US region. Additionally, the administrator wants to create a nested resource group named RG-Data inside RG-Finance to isolate the database's access permissions.

Which of the following statements correctly describes the feasibility of this configuration?

An organization wants to perform advanced data analysis on their cloud spending using external analytics tools. Determine if the following statement is true or false: Azure Cost Management supports the automatic, recurring export of cost and usage data directly to an Azure Storage account.
