Which cloud computing model includes on-premises and cloud-based resources?
A. hybrid
B. public
C. private
Show Answer
Correct Answer: A
Explanation: A hybrid cloud model combines on-premises infrastructure/resources with cloud-based resources and enables them to work together. Public cloud is entirely provider-hosted, and private cloud refers to dedicated cloud infrastructure rather than the combination of on-premises and cloud resources.

Show Answer
Correct Answer: platform as a service (PaaS)
Explanation: A managed cloud SQL database where the provider hosts the platform and applies software updates is a Platform as a Service (PaaS) offering, not IaaS or SaaS.
Question 146
You plan to deploy a service to Azure virtual machines.
You need to ensure that the service will be available if a datacenter fails.
What should you use as part of the virtual machine deployment?
A. availability sets
B. proximity placement groups
C. host groups
D. availability zones
Show Answer
Correct Answer: D
Explanation: Availability zones provide resiliency against an entire datacenter failure by distributing virtual machines across physically separate datacenters within an Azure region. Availability sets protect against host and rack failures within a single datacenter, not the loss of the entire datacenter. Proximity placement groups optimize latency, and host groups are for dedicated Azure hosts, neither of which provide datacenter-failure resilience.

Correct Answer: The virtual machines can be moved to the new subscription.
Explanation: Azure supports moving virtual machines and their dependent resources between subscriptions within the same Microsoft Entra tenant, subject to supported resource move requirements. It is not limited to a single resource group or a specific Windows version.
Question 148
DRAG DROP -
Match the Azure governance feature to the correct description.
Instructions: To answer, drag the appropriate feature from the column on the left to its description on the right. Each feature may be used once, more than once, or not at all.

Show Answer
Correct Answer: Restrict which virtual machine types can be created in a subscription. → Azure Policy
Identify Azure resources that are associated with specific cost centers. → Azure tags
Deploy a complete Azure application environment including resources, configuration, and role assignments. → Azure Blueprints
Explanation: Azure Policy enforces allowed resource configurations, Azure tags organize resources for classification such as cost centers, and Azure Blueprints package deployments with policies, ARM templates, and role assignments.
Question 149

Select the answer that correctly completes the sentence.
Hot Area:
Show Answer
Correct Answer: Microsoft Defender for Cloud
Explanation: Just-in-time (JIT) VM access is a Microsoft Defender for Cloud feature that restricts management port access and allows time-limited access when requested.
Question 150
DRAG DROP -
Match the Azure services to the correct descriptions.
Instructions: To answer, drag the appropriate Azure service from the column on the left to its description on the right. Each service may be used once, more than once, or not at all.
NOTE: Each correct match is worth one point.
Select and Place:
Explanation: Containers provide OS-level virtualization and a portable environment for containerized (virtualized) applications. App Service is for building, deploying, and scaling web apps. Azure Functions provides serverless code execution.
Question 151

For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select No.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Hot Area:
Show Answer
Correct Answer: No
Yes
Yes
Explanation: Cloud computing does not require you to own physical servers. Cloud services are typically accessed over a network/Internet in the Azure fundamentals context. Scaling capacity in the cloud is generally cheaper and more flexible than expanding an on-premises datacenter.
Question 152
Which term represents the ability to increase the computing capacity of a virtual machine by adding memory or CPUs?
A. agility
B. vertical scaling
C. horizontal scaling
D. elasticity
Show Answer
Correct Answer: B
Explanation: Vertical scaling (scaling up) increases the resources of a single virtual machine, such as adding more CPU cores or memory. Horizontal scaling adds more VM instances, elasticity is the ability to automatically adjust resources based on demand, and agility refers to responding quickly to changing business needs.
Question 153
DRAG DROP -
Match the term to the appropriate description.
To answer, drag the appropriate term from the column on the left to its description on the right. Each term may be used once, more than once, or not at all.

Correct Answer: single sign-on (SSO) → The ability to use the same credentials to access multiple resources and applications from different providers.
authorization → The process of identifying the access level of a user or service.
multi-factor authentication (MFA) → Requires several elements to identify a user or a service.
Explanation: SSO allows one set of credentials across multiple applications. Authorization determines what access level or permissions an authenticated user or service has. MFA requires two or more authentication factors.
