What are two characteristics of a consumption-based model?
1.high capital expenditures
2.no upfront costs
3.requires the purchase and management of the physical infrastructure
4.the ability to stop paying for resources that are no longer used
*The ability to stop paying for resources that are no longer used
*No upfront costs
In a consumption-based model, you do not pay for anything until you start using resources, and you only pay for what you use. If you stop using a resource, you stop paying for it. High expenditures are usually associated with the purchase of the physical infrastructure, which is not needed in a consumption-based model.
[__________] refers to upfront costs incurred one time, such as hardware purchases
1.A consumption-based model
2.Capital expenditures
3.Elasticity
4.Operational expenditures
2.Capital expenditures
What is high availability in a public cloud environment dependent on?
1.Capital expenditures
2.Cloud-based backup retention limits
3.The service-level agreement (SLA) that you choose
4.The vertical scalability of an app
*The service-level agreement (SLA) that you choose
In which two deployment models are customers responsible for managing operating systems that host applications?
1.infrastructure as a service (IaaS)
2.on-premises
3.platform as a service (PaaS)
4.software as a service (SaaS)
*Infrastructure as a service (IaaS)
on-premises
Operating systems are managed by customers when using IaaS or an on-premises deployments. The operating systems are not accessible in PaaS and SaaS deployments.
Which cloud service model provides you with the most control over the hardware that runs applications?
1.infrastructure as a service (IaaS)
2.platform as a service (PaaS)
3.software as a service (SaaS)
infrastructure as a service (IaaS)
IaaS is the most flexible category of cloud services. It aims to give you complete control over the hardware that runs applications. Users do not control the operating system and do not configure the underlying servers in PaaS. With SaaS, you are using as-is software hosted in the cloud, instead of creating a platform to host a software yourself.
In a platform as a service (PaaS) model, which two components are the responsibility of the cloud service provider?
1.information and data
2.operating system
3.physical network
4.user access
*physical network
*operating system
In PaaS, the cloud provider is responsible for the operating system, physical datacenter, physical hosts, and physical network. In PaaS, the customer is responsible for accounts and identities.
Your organization is building a custom application. You need to focus on application development rather than configuration and management of servers. Which cloud service model should you use?
1.infrastructure as a service (IaaS)
2.platform as a service (PaaS)
3.software as a service (SaaS)
platform as a service (PaaS)
With PaaS, users can focus on application development because the cloud provider handles all the platform management. In SaaS, the cloud provider manages all aspects of the application environment, such as virtual machines, networking resources, data storage, and applications. IaaS is the closest service model to managing physical servers.
What uses the infrastructure as a service (IaaS) cloud service model?
1.Azure App Services
2.Azure Cosmos DB
3.Azure virtual machines
4.Microsoft Office 365
Azure virtual machines
Which type of cloud service are virtual networks?
1.infrastructure as a service (IaaS)
2.platform as a service (PaaS)
3.software as a service (SaaS)
infrastructure as a service (IaaS)
IaaS helps you reduce the cost and complexity of maintaining a physical server and its datacenter infrastructure. Virtual networks are part of the IaaS cloud service.
[_________] is the logical container used to combine and organize Azure resources.
1.a management group
2.a resource group
3.Azure Resource Manager (ARM)
4.an Azure region
*a resource group
Resources are combined into resource groups, which act as a logical container into which Azure resources like web apps, databases, and storage accounts, are deployed and managed.
Which two components are created in an Azure subscription?
1.Microsoft Entra user accounts
2.management groups
3.resource groups
4.resources
*resource groups
*resources
Resources can only be associated with a single subscription. Subscriptions may be grouped into management groups. An account may be associated with multiple subscriptions.
What is an Azure Storage account named storage001 an example of?
1.a resource
2.a resource group
3.a resource manager
4.a subscription
*a resource
A resource is a manageable item that is available through Azure. Virtual machines, storage accounts, web apps, databases, and virtual networks are examples of resources.
For which resource does Azure generate separate billing reports and invoices by default?
1.accounts
2.management groups
3.resource groups
4.subscriptions
*subscriptions
Azure generates separate billing reports and invoices for each subscription so that you can organize and manage costs. Resource groups can be used to group costs, but you will not receive a separate invoice for each resource group
Which resource can you use to manage access, policies, and compliance across multiple subscriptions?
1.administrative units
2.management groups
3.resource groups
management groups
Management groups can be used in environments that have multiple subscriptions to streamline the application of governance conditions. Resource groups can be used to organize Azure resources.
Which two Azure resources can make use of availability zones? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.
1.Azure SQL databases
2.Azure subscriptions
3.resource groups
4.virtual machines
*Azure SQL databases
*virtual machines
What can you use to execute code in a serverless environment?
1.Azure Container Instances
2.Azure Functions
3.Azure Logic Apps
4.Azure Virtual Desktop
*Azure Functions
Azure Functions allows you to run code as a service without having to manage the underlying platform or infrastructure. Azure Logic Apps is similar to Azure Functions, but uses predefined workflows instead of developing your own code.
You need to allow resources on two different Azure virtual networks to communicate with each other. What should you configure?
1.a network security group (NSG)
2.a point-to-site VPN
3.peering
4.service endpoints
*peering
You can link virtual networks together by using virtual network peering. Peering enables resources in each virtual network to communicate with each other.
Which two services can you use to establish network connectivity between an on-premises network and Azure resources?
1.Azure Bastion
2.Azure Firewall
3.Azure VPN Gateway
4.ExpressRoute
*Azure VPN Gateway
*ExpressRoute
ExpressRoute connections and Azure VPN Gateway are two services that you can use to connect an on-premises network to Azure. Bastion provides a web interface to remotely administer Azure virtual machines by using SSH/RDP. Azure Firewall is a stateful firewall service used to protect virtual networks.
Which Azure Blob storage tier stores data offline and offers the lowest storage costs and the highest costs to access data?
1.Archive
2.Cool
3.Hot
*Archive
Which Azure Blob storage service tier has the highest storage costs and the fastest access times for reading and writing data?
1.Archive
2.Cool
3.Hot
*Hot
The Hot tier is optimized for storing data that is accessed frequently. The Cool access tier has a slightly lower availability SLA and higher access costs compared to hot data, which are acceptable trade-offs for lower storage costs. Archive storage stores data offline and offers the lowest storage costs, but also the highest costs to rehydrate and access data.
What enables a user to sign in one time and use that credential to access multiple resources and applications from different providers?
1.Conditional Access
