Question 65

You are developing a sales application that will contain several Azure cloud services and handle different components of a transaction. Different cloud services will process customer orders, billing, payment, inventory, and shipping. You need to recommend a solution to enable the cloud services to asynchronously communicate transaction information by using XML messages. What should you include in the recommendation?

A. Azure Application Gateway
B. Azure Queue Storage
C. Azure Data Lake
D. Azure Traffic Manager
Show Answer
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
Azure Queue Storage enables asynchronous communication between distributed application components by storing messages (including XML payloads) that producers and consumers process independently. Application Gateway is a layer 7 load balancer, Data Lake is for analytics storage, and Traffic Manager provides DNS-based traffic routing, none of which are messaging services.

Question 66

You need to recommend a solution to generate a monthly report of all the new Azure Resource Manager (ARM) resource deployments in your Azure subscription. What should you include in the recommendation?

A. Azure Arc
B. Azure Log Analytics
C. Application insights
D. Azure Monitor action groups
Show Answer
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
Azure Log Analytics can collect and query Azure Activity Logs, including Azure Resource Manager deployment events, enabling scheduled monthly reporting on newly deployed resources. Azure Arc manages hybrid resources, Application Insights monitors application performance, and Azure Monitor action groups are for alert notifications rather than historical reporting.

Question 67

You need to design a highly available Azure SQL database that meets the following requirements: • Failover between replicas of the database must occur without any data loss. • The database must remain available in the event of a zone outage. • Costs must be minimized. Which deployment option should you use?

A. Azure SQL Database Business Critical
B. Azure SQL Database Basic
C. Azure SQL Managed Instance General Purpose
D. Azure SQL Database Hyperscale
Show Answer
Correct Answer: A
Explanation:
Azure SQL Database Business Critical provides synchronous replicas with zero-data-loss failover, supports zone-redundant high availability to remain available during an availability zone outage, and is the least costly option among those that satisfy both requirements. Basic lacks these HA capabilities, Managed Instance General Purpose uses remote storage and does not provide the same zero-data-loss zone-redundant database HA, and Hyperscale is designed for large-scale workloads rather than being the most cost-effective choice for these requirements.

Question 68

You are developing a sales application that will contain several Azure cloud services and handle different components of a transaction. Different cloud services will process customer orders, billing, payment, inventory, and shipping. You need to recommend a solution to enable the cloud services to asynchronously communicate transaction information by using XML messages. What should you include in the recommendation?

A. Azure Notification Hubs
B. Azure Service Bus
C. Azure Blob Storage
D. Azure Service Fabric
Show Answer
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
Azure Service Bus is designed for reliable asynchronous messaging between distributed application components and services. It supports queues and topics for decoupled communication, making it appropriate for processing transactions such as orders, billing, payments, inventory, and shipping. XML messages can be sent as the message payload. Azure Notification Hubs is for push notifications, Blob Storage is for object storage, and Service Fabric is an application hosting platform rather than a messaging service.

Question 69

You are developing a sales application that will contain several Azure cloud services and handle different components of a transaction. Different cloud services will process customer orders, billing, payment, inventory, and shipping. You need to recommend a solution to enable the cloud services to asynchronously communicate transaction information by using XML messages. What should you include in the recommendation?

A. Azure Blob Storage
B. Azure Data Lake
C. Azure Queue Storage
D. Azure Service Fabric
Show Answer
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
Azure Queue Storage enables asynchronous communication between application components by storing messages in queues. It is appropriate for decoupling cloud services such as order processing, billing, inventory, and shipping. Blob Storage and Data Lake are for data storage, while Service Fabric is an application platform rather than a messaging service.

Question 70

You need to design a highly available Azure SQL database that meets the following requirements: • Failover between replicas of the database must occur without any data loss. • The database must remain available in the event of a zone outage. • Costs must be minimized. Which deployment option should you use?

A. Azure SQL Database Serverless
B. Azure SQL Managed Instance General Purpose
C. Azure SQL Database Basic
D. Azure SQL Database Business Critical
Show Answer
Correct Answer: D
Explanation:
The Business Critical deployment option is the least expensive choice among the listed options that satisfies all requirements. It uses synchronous replicas (Always On availability groups) to enable failover with no data loss and supports zone-redundant high availability so the database can remain available during an availability zone outage. Serverless is a compute tier, not an HA tier, General Purpose Managed Instance does not provide the same zero-data-loss synchronous replica architecture, and Basic does not meet the HA requirements.

Question 71

Your company has the divisions shown in the following table. Sub1 contains an Azure App Service web app named App1. App1 uses Azure AD for single-tenant user authentication. Users from contoso.com can authenticate to App1. You need to recommend a solution to enable users in the fabrikam.com tenant to authenticate to App1. What should you recommend?

A. Configure Azure AD Identity Protection.
B. Configure assignments for the fabrikam.com users by using Azure AD Privileged Identity Management (PIM).
C. Configure Supported account types in the application registration and update the sign-in endpoint.
D. Configure a Conditional Access policy.
Show Answer
Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
The app is currently configured for single-tenant Azure AD authentication, so only users in the contoso.com tenant can sign in. To allow users from the fabrikam.com tenant, the application registration must be changed to support multiple tenants (or the appropriate supported account type), and the application must use the corresponding multi-tenant sign-in endpoint. Identity Protection, PIM, and Conditional Access do not change a single-tenant application's ability to accept users from another Azure AD tenant.

Question 72

You need to recommend a solution to generate a monthly report of all the new Azure Resource Manager (ARM) resource deployments in your Azure subscription. What should you include in the recommendation?

A. Azure Arc
B. Azure Monitor metrics
C. Azure Advisor
D. Azure Log Analytics
Show Answer
Correct Answer: D
Explanation:
Azure Log Analytics can collect and query Azure Activity Logs, including ARM resource deployment events. By querying deployment-related records over a monthly time range, you can generate a report of new Azure Resource Manager resource deployments. Azure Monitor metrics do not track deployment events, Azure Advisor provides recommendations rather than deployment reporting, and Azure Arc is for managing hybrid resources.

Question 73

You have an Azure subscription that contains 1,000 resources. You need to generate compliance reports for the subscription. The solution must ensure that the resources can be grouped by department. What should you use to organize the resources?

A. application groups and quotas
B. Azure Policy and tags
C. administrative units and Azure Lighthouse
D. resource groups and role assignments
Show Answer
Correct Answer: B
Explanation:
Azure Policy can enforce governance requirements such as requiring specific tags, while tags (for example, a 'Department' tag) allow resources to be grouped, filtered, and reported by department. This combination supports compliance reporting across a large subscription. The other options do not provide resource classification for compliance reporting by department.

Question 74

You need to recommend a solution to generate a monthly report of all the new Azure Resource Manager (ARM) resource deployments in your Azure subscription. What should you include in the recommendation?

A. Azure Monitor action groups
B. Azure Arc
C. Azure Monitor metrics
D. Azure Activity Log
Show Answer
Correct Answer: D
Explanation:
Azure Activity Log records subscription-level events, including Azure Resource Manager create, update, and delete operations. It can be queried and exported to generate monthly reports of new ARM resource deployments. Azure Monitor metrics capture performance data, action groups are for notifications, and Azure Arc is for managing hybrid resources.
