An organization is migrating a legacy on-premises application to Azure. The database tier has the following requirements:
- Must support native SQL Server Agent jobs and cross-database queries.
- Must provide a disaster recovery (DR) solution to a secondary Azure region with a Recovery Time Objective (RTO) of 15 minutes.
- Must automatically route both read-write and read-only traffic to the active database replicas without requiring modifications to the application connection strings during a failover.

Which database deployment and disaster recovery strategy should you recommend?

Cevap: Deploy Azure SQL Managed Instance in a primary region, configure an auto-failover group with a secondary Managed Instance in a paired region, and configure the application to use the read-write and read-only listener endpoints.

Cevap

Deploy Azure SQL Managed Instance in a primary region, configure an auto-failover group with a secondary Managed Instance in a paired region, and configure the application to use the read-write and read-only listener endpoints.
The correct strategy is to deploy Azure SQL Managed Instance and configure an auto-failover group. Azure SQL Managed Instance supports the required legacy on-premises SQL Server features (SQL Server Agent and cross-database queries). The auto-failover group provides automatic failover capabilities to a secondary region within the RTO target, and offers read-write and read-only listener endpoints that transparently route application traffic without requiring connection string modifications.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the database compatibility requirements.
The application requires cross-database queries and SQL Server Agent jobs, which rules out Azure SQL Database (Single Database) and indicates that Azure SQL Managed Instance is the appropriate managed service.
Azure SQL Managed Instance offers near 100% compatibility with the on-premises SQL Server database engine, including SQL Agent and cross-database queries.
2
Evaluate the disaster recovery and traffic routing requirements.
The solution requires automatic routing of read-write and read-only traffic to a secondary region during a failover without updating application connection strings.
Auto-failover groups for Azure SQL Managed Instance provide a read-write listener and a read-only listener that remain constant regardless of which region is active.
3
Verify storage and performance best practices.
Ensure premium storage is used for database logs to prevent performance degradation, which makes options utilizing Standard HDD invalid.
Database transaction logs require high throughput and low latency, which Standard HDD cannot provide.

Anahtar Kavram

Azure SQL Managed Instance auto-failover groups support automatic redirection of read-write and read-only traffic via listeners while maintaining on-premises SQL Server feature compatibility.

Cevap: Provision an Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL account with multi-region writes enabled across all three regions, configure zone-redundancy for each region, and set the container partition key to MeterId.

Cevap

Provision an Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL account with multi-region writes enabled across all three regions, configure zone-redundancy for each region, and set the container partition key to MeterId.
Provisioning an Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL account with multi-region writes enabled ensures that write operations are processed locally in each region, achieving the sub-1010 ms latency goal and meeting the 99.999%99.999\% SLA. Configuring zone-redundancy within each region provides resilience against local datacenter outages. Using the high-cardinality MeterId as the partition key ensures write operations are distributed evenly across logical and physical partitions, preventing hot partitions.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze write latency and availability requirements.
Identified that multi-region writes are required across East US, West Europe, and East Asia to support local sub-1010 ms write latency and meet the 99.999%99.999\% SLA.
To minimize latency for globally distributed clients and meet strict write availability targets, write replication must be active in all target regions.
2
Evaluate partition key choices to avoid hot partitions.
Selected MeterId as the partition key instead of RegionId.
MeterId provides high cardinality, distributing the heavy ingestion load evenly across physical partitions, whereas RegionId has low cardinality and would cause severe partition bottlenecking.
3
Determine resilience and security settings.
Configured zone-redundancy within each region and discarded designs utilizing Locally Redundant Storage or long-lived Shared Access Signatures without stored access policies.
Zone-redundancy protects against local datacenter failures, while LRS fails regional disaster recovery compliance. Direct use of long-lived SAS tokens violates credential rotation security practices.

Cevap: Configure a Conditional Access policy that enforces MFA for administrative roles, and exclude a dedicated, cloud-only emergency access account.; Implement Password Hash Synchronization (PHS) to enable cloud-based authentication for hybrid users.

Cevap

The configuration of a Conditional Access policy that enforces MFA while excluding a dedicated emergency access account, combined with the implementation of Password Hash Synchronization (PHS).
Excluding a dedicated emergency access account from MFA requirements ensures that administrators can access the tenant during an outage. In addition, using Password Hash Synchronization (PHS) allows authentication to occur in the cloud without requiring on-premises federation servers.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Evaluate hybrid authentication options.
Password Hash Synchronization (PHS) is selected as it processes authentication entirely in the cloud and requires minimal on-premises infrastructure, unlike Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS).
To satisfy the requirement of minimal on-premises footprint while allowing users to use their on-premises passwords.
2
Evaluate security controls and lockout prevention for administrators.

You are designing a backup solution for several production Azure Virtual Machines. The business continuity requirements state that the backup data must be protected against a regional disaster that causes a complete outage of the primary Azure region. The solution must also allow for the restoration of the virtual machines to a secondary paired region. Which storage redundancy configuration should you select for the Recovery Services vault?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Geo-redundant storage (GRS)

Cevap

Geo-redundant storage (GRS)
The correct option is Geo-redundant storage (GRS). It replicates backup data to a secondary paired region, ensuring that the backups remain available even if the primary region experiences a complete outage. This meets the requirement of protecting against a regional disaster and allows virtual machines to be restored in the secondary region.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the business continuity requirements to identify the scope of protection needed.
The requirements state that the backup data must survive a regional disaster that causes a complete outage of the primary Azure region.
This rules out Locally redundant storage (LRS) and Zone-redundant storage (ZRS) since they store backup data exclusively within the primary region.
2
Determine the storage replication option that replicates data to a secondary region.
Geo-redundant storage (GRS) replicates backup data to a secondary paired region.
GRS ensures that backups are available even if the entire primary region experiences an outage.
3
Evaluate if the replication option allows the secondary region to receive direct write operations.
Azure storage replication options like RA-GRS do not support active-active write operations to the secondary region.
A secondary storage endpoint is read-only unless a failover occurs, so configuring RA-GRS for write capability is invalid.

Cevap: Create an Azure Files Premium share configured with Zone-Redundant Storage (ZRS) for the shared file system; Deploy Premium SSD managed disks configured with Zone-Redundant Storage (ZRS) for the database virtual machines; Generate Shared Access Signature (SAS) tokens associated with a Stored Access Policy to grant access to the diagnostic logs

Cevap

The architecture should use a Premium Azure Files share with Zone-Redundant Storage (ZRS) for the NFS v4.1v4.1 file system, Premium SSD managed disks with ZRS for the database virtual machines, and Shared Access Signatures associated with a Stored Access Policy for diagnostic logs.
The correct options are selected because: Premium Azure Files is the only Azure Files tier that supports NFS v4.1v4.1, and ZRS provides resiliency against zone outages. Premium SSD disks with ZRS provide the required sub-millisecond latencies and zone-level redundancy for transactional database workloads. Finally, using a SAS token with a Stored Access Policy allows immediate revocation of access to the diagnostics logs.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Evaluate the shared file system requirements.
Premium Azure Files is required because the Standard tier does not support the NFS v4.1v4.1 protocol (which is restricted to the Premium tier). Additionally, Zone-Redundant Storage (ZRS) is required to ensure the shared files remain available during a zone outage, as Locally Redundant Storage (LRS) only replicates data within a single datacenter.
Ensures protocol compatibility and zone-level resiliency for the shared storage layer.
2
Evaluate the database disk storage requirements.
Premium SSD managed disks configured with ZRS meet both the sub-millisecond latency requirement for transactional workloads and the requirement to survive zone-level failures. Standard HDD disks have high latency and low IOPS, making them unsuitable for database transaction logs.
Selects the correct managed disk tier and redundancy option based on performance and availability needs.
3
Evaluate the diagnostics access security requirements.
Using SAS tokens associated with a Stored Access Policy allows the organization to revoke the SAS immediately by modifying or deleting the policy. Ad-hoc SAS tokens with long lifetimes cannot be easily revoked without rotating the storage account keys, which would disrupt all other clients using the keys.
Provides a secure access control mechanism with immediate revocation capabilities.

Cevap: Geo-zone-redundant storage (GZRS); Read-access geo-zone-redundant storage (RA-GZRS)

Cevap

Geo-zone-redundant storage (GZRS) and Read-access geo-zone-redundant storage (RA-GZRS) are the two redundancy options that meet both the zone-redundant replication in the primary region and geo-replication to a secondary region.
To satisfy both requirements, the storage account must replicate data across three availability zones in the primary region (zonal redundancy) and to a secondary region (geo-redundancy). Geo-zone-redundant storage (GZRS) and read-access geo-zone-redundant storage (RA-GZRS) both achieve this by combining zone-redundancy in the primary region with geo-redundancy to a secondary region.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the replication requirement in the primary region.
The requirement specifies synchronous replication across three availability zones within the primary region, which requires zone-redundant capability.
This rules out locally redundant storage (LRS) and geo-redundant storage (GRS), which only copy data within a single datacenter in the primary region.
2
Identify the cross-region replication requirement.
The requirement specifies replication to a secondary region to protect against a regional outage, which requires geo-redundant capability.
This rules out standard zone-redundant storage (ZRS), which replicates only within the primary region.
3
Select options that satisfy both zone-redundancy in the primary region and replication to a secondary region.
Geo-zone-redundant storage (GZRS) and read-access geo-zone-redundant storage (RA-GZRS) combine zone-redundant storage (ZRS) in the primary region with geo-redundancy to a secondary region.
Both GZRS and RA-GZRS satisfy all of the given design constraints.

Cevap

The solution that configures Microsoft Entra Privileged Identity Management (PIM) for a security group with eligible assignments and uses Azure Policy with the DeployIfNotExists effect to create the resource locks.
The correct solution leverages Microsoft Entra ID groups for administrative efficiency, uses PIM eligible assignments to ensure just-in-time (JIT) access during maintenance windows, and uses Azure Policy's DeployIfNotExists effect to automatically apply resource locks, ensuring compliance without blocking resource creation.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Select group-based assignment over individual assignment.
Administrative overhead is minimized as team membership changes are handled within Microsoft Entra ID groups without requiring RBAC reassignments.
Direct user assignments violate the standard practice of scalable access management.
2
Determine the PIM activation type.
Eligible assignment is selected so that users must request and activate permissions on-demand.
Permanently active assignments leave persistent permissions, violating the requirement for access limited to maintenance windows.

Cevap

Configure an Enhanced backup policy with the snapshot retention set to 77 days, and configure a Recovery Services Vault with geo-redundant storage (GRS) and enable Cross Region Restore (CRR).
To meet the requirements of a twice-daily backup frequency and 77 days of instant recovery snapshot retention, an Enhanced backup policy must be configured. Standard policies do not support multiple backups per day and are limited to a maximum of 55 days of snapshot retention. To ensure the backups are restorable in the paired secondary region during a primary region disaster, the Recovery Services Vault must use geo-redundant storage (GRS) with Cross Region Restore (CRR) enabled.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze backup frequency and instant recovery snapshot retention needs.
Determined that the solution requires a twice-daily backup schedule and a snapshot retention of 77 days.
Standard VM backup policies only support daily backups and a snapshot retention range of 11 to 55 days. Supporting a twice-daily frequency and a 77-day snapshot retention requires the Enhanced backup policy.
2
Evaluate disaster recovery requirements for the vault backups.
Determined that vault backups must survive a primary region disaster and be restorable in the secondary region.
Locally redundant storage (LRS) does not protect against regional outages. To allow restores in a secondary paired region when the primary region is unavailable, the Recovery Services Vault must be configured with geo-redundant storage (GRS) and Cross Region Restore (CRR) enabled.
3
Select the correct combination of policy and vault settings.

Cevap: A Recovery Services vault configured with Geo-Redundant Storage (GRS), and a backup policy with instant restore retention set to 4 days and vault-standard retention set to 60 days.

Cevap

A Recovery Services vault configured with Geo-Redundant Storage (GRS), and a backup policy with instant restore retention set to 4 days and vault-standard retention set to 60 days.
Configuring a Recovery Services vault with Geo-Redundant Storage (GRS) satisfies the requirement to survive a regional outage at a lower cost than Read-Access Geo-Redundant Storage (RA-GRS) or Zone-Redundant Storage (ZRS) depending on regional availability. To perform file-level recoveries instantly from the last 4 days without waiting for data transfer from the vault, the backup policy's instant restore retention must be configured to at least 4 days. This keeps snapshots locally on the source virtual machine's disks. Retaining the backups in the vault for 60 days ensures long-term operational recovery needs are met.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine the storage redundancy type based on regional resilience and cost requirements.
Select Geo-Redundant Storage (GRS) to survive a regional outage, as Locally Redundant Storage (LRS) only protects against local hardware failures.
The scenario requires that backup data survive a regional disaster at minimum cost.
2
Configure the backup policy's instant restore snapshot retention parameter.
Set the instant restore retention to 4 days.
This keeps snapshots on the source virtual machine's local disks for up to 4 days, allowing immediate file-level recoveries without vault transfer latency.
3
Configure the long-term vault-standard retention parameter in the backup policy.
Set the vault-standard retention to 60 days.
This retains the backups in the Recovery Services vault for the full duration specified by the compliance requirements.

An enterprise plans to migrate an on-premises relational database to Azure. The database requires native support for SQL Server Agent jobs and cross-database queries. The business continuity requirements for the new architecture are as follows:
- Provide automatic cross-region failover to a secondary region with a Recovery Time Objective (RTO) of less than 1 hour.
- Maintain a single, unchanged connection string for read-write operations during a failover event.
- Offload reporting workloads to a read-only endpoint in the secondary region.

Which two configurations should you recommend in the design?

Cevap: Create an Azure SQL Managed Instance auto-failover group containing the primary and secondary instances.; Configure the client application to connect using the read-write listener endpoint of the auto-failover group.

Cevap

Creating an Azure SQL Managed Instance auto-failover group and configuring the client application to connect using the auto-failover group's read-write listener.
Creating an Azure SQL Managed Instance auto-failover group and configuring the application to connect using the read-write listener endpoint satisfies all requirements. SQL Managed Instance supports on-premises features such as SQL Server Agent and cross-database queries. The auto-failover group manages database replication to the secondary region, supports automatic failover to meet the RTO requirement, and provides a read-write listener endpoint to keep the connection string unchanged, as well as a read-only listener endpoint to offload reporting workloads.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify database compatibility requirements.
The application requires SQL Server Agent and cross-database queries, which indicates that Azure SQL Managed Instance is the appropriate relational database service over Azure SQL Database singletons.
To ensure that legacy SQL Server features remain functional after migration to a fully-managed Azure database service.
2
Evaluate regional high availability and disaster recovery options.
Auto-failover groups in Azure SQL Managed Instance provide cross-region replication, automatic failover, and read-write/read-only listener endpoints.
To satisfy the business continuity requirements (automatic failover, RTO < 1 hour, and secondary read-scale routing).
3
Configure connection routing.
Use the read-write listener endpoint in the client connection string.
This allows the application to keep a single connection string without modifications when a failover occurs, while the platform handles redirecting traffic to the primary replica.

Cevap: Deploy Azure SQL Managed Instance in both the primary and secondary regions, configured within an auto-failover group.; Configure the application to connect using the auto-failover group's read-write listener endpoint.

Cevap

To meet the requirements, the design must include deploying Azure SQL Managed Instance in both the primary and secondary regions within an auto-failover group, and configuring the application to connect using the auto-failover group's read-write listener endpoint.
Deploying Azure SQL Managed Instance in an auto-failover group satisfies the requirements for SQL Server Agent and cross-database queries while providing automatic failover. Utilizing the auto-failover group's read-write listener endpoint ensures that the application connection string automatically routes write traffic to the active primary region without manual configuration updates during a failover event.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the database requirements for instance-level features.
SQL Server Agent and cross-database queries necessitate Azure SQL Managed Instance or SQL Server on Azure VMs, ruling out Azure SQL Database single databases.
Azure SQL Database single databases do not support these features natively.
2
Evaluate high availability and disaster recovery requirements.
Automatic failover with a single connection string is met by Azure SQL auto-failover groups, which provide a read-write listener endpoint.
Auto-failover groups automate failover and manage routing, unlike active geo-replication which requires manual failover orchestration.
3
Verify storage and performance constraints.
Standard HDD storage is insufficient for database transaction logs due to latency and throughput limits, making Premium SSD or Ultra Disk required.
SQL Server database transaction logs require low-latency write operations to avoid performance bottlenecks.

A healthcare organization is designing a security and access control solution for clinical trial data uploaded by external research partners to a private container in an Azure Storage account named clinicaltrialsdata. The solution must meet the following requirements:
- External partners must be granted temporary access to upload new data files directly to the container, without the ability to delete or modify existing files.
- The access credentials given to external partners must be immediately revocable in bulk, without regenerating the storage account access keys.
- Internal data auditors must have read-only access to the data, restricted to when they are performing active audits. The access must require approval and be restricted to a maximum duration of 8 hours.
- Administrative overhead must be minimized, and all assignments must adhere to the principle of least privilege and scale effectively.
Which of the following security architectures should you recommend?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Configure a Stored Access Policy on the container with Write permissions and generate Shared Access Signature (SAS) tokens associated with the policy for the external partners. Create a Microsoft Entra security group for the internal data auditors and configure Privileged Identity Management (PIM) to make the group eligible for the Storage Blob Data Reader role.

Cevap

Configure a Stored Access Policy on the container with Write permissions and generate Shared Access Signature (SAS) tokens associated with the policy for the external partners. Create a Microsoft Entra security group for the internal data auditors and configure Privileged Identity Management (PIM) to make the group eligible for the Storage Blob Data Reader role.
The correct architecture uses a Stored Access Policy to manage external uploads, allowing immediate revocation of the associated Shared Access Signature (SAS) tokens by altering or deleting the policy rather than regenerating the storage account keys. For internal data auditors, a Microsoft Entra ID group mapped to an eligible assignment in Privileged Identity Management (PIM) guarantees that read-only access (Storage Blob Data Reader) is only active when requested and approved, up to a strict limit of 8 hours. This satisfies all constraints, scales cleanly, and adheres to the principle of least privilege.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Address external partner access and bulk revocation requirements.
Create a Stored Access Policy on the target container with Write-only permissions and issue SAS tokens linked to it.
Linking SAS tokens to a Stored Access Policy enables immediate bulk revocation by modifying or deleting the policy, avoiding the need to regenerate the primary storage keys. Write-only permissions satisfy least privilege by preventing external partners from viewing or modifying existing data.
2
Address the identity grouping and scalability requirements for internal auditors.
Create a Microsoft Entra security group and place all internal data auditors into the group.
Assigning RBAC roles to groups instead of individual users reduces administrative overhead, ensures scalability, and simplifies access tracking.
3
Address time-bound, approved access (Just-In-Time) for audits.
Configure Microsoft Entra Privileged Identity Management (PIM) to make the auditors group eligible for the Storage Blob Data Reader role.
PIM allows users to request activation of their eligible role only when needed (JIT). Security administrators can set activation settings to require approval and limit the maximum duration to 8 hours. The Storage Blob Data Reader role provides the required read-only access.

You are designing an Azure Backup solution for a suite of critical Azure Virtual Machines hosting an enterprise financial application. The solution must satisfy the following technical requirements:
- Recovery Point Objective (RPO): The maximum data loss window must be no more than 44 hours.
- Recovery Time Objective (RTO): The solution must support immediate recovery from local disk snapshots for backups taken within the last 55 days.
- Disaster Recovery: Backups must be replicated to a secondary region. The design must allow administrators to restore virtual machines to the secondary region even if the primary Azure region suffers a complete, prolonged outage.
- Cost Optimization: Yearly backup recovery points must be stored in the most cost-effective tier after their first 3030 days in the vault.

Which two configuration actions should you include in the backup design to meet the requirements?

Cevap: Configure the Recovery Services vault to use Geo-redundant storage (GRS) and enable Cross Region Restore (CRR).; Create an Enhanced backup policy configured with a backup schedule of every 44 hours and an instant restore snapshot retention of 55 days.

Cevap

To meet the requirements, you must configure the Recovery Services vault to use Geo-redundant storage (GRS) and enable Cross Region Restore (CRR), and create an Enhanced backup policy configured with a backup schedule of every 44 hours and an instant restore snapshot retention of 55 days.
The correct configuration combines an Enhanced backup policy and a GRS-configured Recovery Services vault with Cross Region Restore enabled. The Enhanced policy is required to achieve sub-daily backups (every 44 hours) to satisfy the 44-hour RPO, and it natively supports the 55-day instant restore retention. Storing backups in a GRS vault with CRR enabled satisfies the disaster recovery requirement by replicating the backup data to the paired region and making it read-accessible for restores even when the primary region is completely unavailable.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze RPO requirements to determine the backup policy type.
Since the RPO is 44 hours, multiple backups must be taken throughout the day. Standard backup policies only support a single daily backup. Therefore, an Enhanced backup policy is required.
Enhanced backup policies allow scheduling multiple backups per day (such as every 44 hours), whereas Standard policies are constrained to once per day.
2
Evaluate the RTO and instant restore retention configuration.
The Enhanced backup policy must be configured with an instant restore snapshot retention of 55 days.
This keeps 55 days of snapshots on the local source disks, enabling immediate recovery (Instant Restore) without pulling data from the vault tier.
3
Address the disaster recovery requirement for region outages.
Configure the Recovery Services vault with Geo-redundant storage (GRS) and enable Cross Region Restore (CRR).
GRS replicates backup data to a secondary region. Enabling CRR allows administrators to initiate restores in the secondary region even if the primary region is completely offline.
4
Assess the feasibility of archiving daily backups.
Reject any design that attempts to archive daily backups or archive data with a retention of less than 180180 days.
Azure Backup's Vault-archive tier only supports monthly and yearly recovery points, and mandates a minimum retention duration of 180180 days.

A logistics company is setting up a new Azure environment. The security team requires that a specific group of external systems administrators be allowed to restart virtual machines and read resource logs within a dedicated resource group named 'rg-shipping-prod'. The access model must enforce the principle of least privilege, facilitate simplified auditing, and support temporary access elevation when troubleshooting critical incidents.

Cevap: Assign the Virtual Machine Contributor and Monitoring Reader roles to a Microsoft Entra ID security group at the 'rg-shipping-prod' resource group scope.; Configure Microsoft Entra Privileged Identity Management (PIM) for Groups to make the administrators eligible for membership in the security group.

Cevap

The correct configurations are to assign the Virtual Machine Contributor and Monitoring Reader roles to a Microsoft Entra ID security group at the 'rg-shipping-prod' resource group scope, and to configure Microsoft Entra Privileged Identity Management (PIM) for Groups to make the administrators eligible for membership in that security group.
To implement secure governance under the principle of least privilege and support temporary access, permissions should be assigned to a Microsoft Entra ID security group scoped specifically to the target resource group. Using Microsoft Entra Privileged Identity Management (PIM) for Groups with an eligible assignment ensures that administrators can elevate their permissions just-in-time when troubleshooting is required, rather than maintaining standing privileges.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine the identity assignment method.
Create a Microsoft Entra ID security group and add the external administrators to it, rather than assigning roles directly to individual accounts.
This simplifies auditing and follows the standard governance best practice of group-based access control.
2
Determine the role assignment scope and roles.
Assign the Virtual Machine Contributor and Monitoring Reader roles at the 'rg-shipping-prod' resource group scope.
This limits permissions to the specific resources required, adhering to the principle of least privilege.
3
Determine the access elevation strategy.
Configure the group in Microsoft Entra Privileged Identity Management (PIM) for Groups with eligible membership assignments.
Eligible membership enables just-in-time (JIT) elevation for troubleshooting incidents, preventing permanently active privileges.

You are designing the storage infrastructure for a SQL database migrating to Azure Virtual Machines. The database transaction logs require sub-10ms write latency and high IOPS. The storage solution for the database files must remain available even during an availability zone-level outage. Additionally, database backups must be written to Azure Blob Storage daily, and external auditors must be granted temporary access to these backups with the ability to immediately revoke the access if a security compromise is suspected. Which storage configuration should you recommend?

Cevap: Deploy Premium SSD managed disks with Zone-Redundant Storage (ZRS) for the transaction logs, and store backups in a ZRS block blob container accessed via Shared Access Signatures (SAS) associated with a stored access policy.

Cevap

Deploy Premium SSD managed disks with Zone-Redundant Storage (ZRS) for the transaction logs, and store backups in a ZRS block blob container accessed via Shared Access Signatures (SAS) associated with a stored access policy.
The configuration using Premium SSD managed disks for database files guarantees the required write performance. Selecting Zone-Redundant Storage (ZRS) ensures the storage architecture survives a zone outage. Accessing the backups via a SAS linked to a stored access policy satisfies the security requirement by enabling immediate revocation without key rotation.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze performance requirements for the database transaction logs.
Premium SSD or Ultra Disk is required to achieve sub-10ms write latency and high IOPS. Standard HDD is insufficient for transaction log workloads.
Database transaction logs are write-intensive and highly sensitive to latency.
2
Analyze the high availability and resiliency requirements.
Zone-Redundant Storage (ZRS) must be selected for both managed disks and blob storage to survive a zone outage.
Locally Redundant Storage (LRS) only replicates data within a single datacenter and cannot survive a zone failure.
3
Analyze backup security and revocation requirements.
Access must be granted via a Shared Access Signature (SAS) linked to a stored access policy.
A stored access policy allows immediate revocation of SAS tokens by modifying or deleting the policy, whereas ad-hoc SAS tokens can only be revoked by rotating storage keys.
