NEW QUESTION 2

You are developing a web application that provides streaming video to users. You configure the application to use continuous integration and deployment.
The app must be highly available and provide a continuous streaming experience for users.
You need to recommend a solution that allows the application to store data in a geographical location that is closest to the user.
What should you recommend?

• A. Azure App Service Web Apps
• B. Azure App Service Isolated
• C. Azure Redis Cache
• D. Azure Content Delivery Network (CDN)

Answer: D

Explanation:
Azure Content Delivery Network (CDN) is a global CDN solution for delivering high-bandwidth content. It can be hosted in Azure or any other location. With Azure CDN, you can cache static objects loaded from Azure Blob storage, a web application, or any publicly accessible web server, by using the closest point of presence (POP) server. Azure CDN can also accelerate dynamic content, which cannot be cached, by leveraging various network and routing optimizations.

NEW QUESTION 3

You have an Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) tenant.
You plan to deploy Azure Cosmos DB databases that will use the SQL API.
You need to recommend a solution to provide specific Azure AD user accounts with read access to the Cosmos DB databases.
What should you include in the recommendation?

• A. a resource token and an Access control (IAM) role assignment
• B. shared access signatures (SAS) and conditional access policies
• C. master keys and Azure Information Protection policies
• D. certificates and Azure Key Vault

Answer: A

Explanation:
The Access control (IAM) pane in the Azure portal is used to configure role-based access control on Azure Cosmos resources. The roles are applied to users, groups, service principals, and managed identities in Active Directory. You can use built-in roles or custom roles for individuals and groups. The following screenshot shows Active Directory integration (RBAC) using access control (IAM) in the Azure portal:

NEW QUESTION 4

You need to deploy resources to host a stateless web app in an Azure subscription. The solution must meet the following requirements:
• Provide access to the full .NET framework.
• Provide redundancy if an Azure region fails.
• Grant administrators access to the operating system to install custom application dependencies. Solution: You deploy a web app in an Isolated App Service plan.
Does this meet the goal?

• A. Yes
• B. No

Answer: B

Explanation:
Instead, you should deploy an Azure virtual machine to two Azure regions, and you create a Traffic Manager profile.

NEW QUESTION 5

You have an Azure subscription that is linked to an Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) tenant. The subscription contains 10 resource groups, one for each department at your company. Each department has a specific spending limit for its Azure resources.
You need to ensure that when a department reaches its spending limit, the compute resources of the department shut down automatically.
Which two features should you include in the solution? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

• A. Azure Logic Apps
• B. Azure Monitor alerts
• C. the spending limit of an Azure account
• D. Cost Management budgets
• E. Azure Log Analytics alerts

Answer: CD

Explanation:
C: The spending limit in Azure prevents spending over your credit amount. All new customers who sign up for an Azure free account or subscription types that include credits over multiple months have the spending limit turned on by default. The spending limit is equal to the amount of credit and it can’t be changed.
D: Turn on the spending limit after removing
This feature is available only when the spending limit has been removed indefinitely for subscription types that include credits over multiple months. You can use this feature to turn on your spending limit automatically at the start of the next billing period.
Sign in to the Azure portal as the Account Administrator.
Search for Cost Management + Billing.
Etc.

The network contains two Active Directory forests named corp.fabrikam.com and rd.fabrikam.com. There are no trust relationships between the forests.
Corp.fabrikam.com is a production forest that contains identities used for internal user and computer authentication.
Rd.fabrikam.com is used by the research and development (R&D) department only.

NEW QUESTION 12

You have an existing implementation of Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) packages stored in an SSISDB catalog on your on-premises network. The on-premises network does not have hybrid connectivity to Azure by using Site-to-Site VPN or ExpressRoute.
You want to migrate the packages to Azure Data Factory.
You need to recommend a solution that facilitates the migration while minimizing changes to the existing packages. The solution must minimize costs.
What should you recommend? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

• A. Mastered
• B. Not Mastered

Answer: A

Explanation:
Box 1: Azure SQL database
You can't create the SSISDB Catalog database on Azure SQL Database at this time independently of creating the Azure-SSIS Integration Runtime in Azure Data Factory. The Azure-SSIS IR is the runtime environment that runs SSIS packages on Azure.
Box 2: Azure-SQL Server Integration Service Integration Runtime and self-hosted integration runtime The Integration Runtime (IR) is the compute infrastructure used by Azure Data Factory to provide data
integration capabilities across different network environments. Azure-SSIS Integration Runtime (IR) in Azure Data Factory (ADF) supports running SSIS packages.
Self-hosted integration runtime can be used for data movement in this scenario. Reference:

• B. Not Mastered

Answer: A

Explanation:
Box 1: Azure AD V2.0 endpoint
Microsoft identity platform is an evolution of the Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) developer platform. It allows developers to build applications that sign in all Microsoft identities and get tokens to call Microsoft APIs, such as Microsoft Graph, or APIs that developers have built. The Microsoft identity platform consists of:
OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect standard-compliant authentication service that enables developers to authenticate any Microsoft identity, including:
Work or school accounts (provisioned through Azure AD)
Personal Microsoft accounts (such as Skype, Xbox, and Outlook.com) Social or local accounts (via Azure AD B2C)
Box 2: Azure AD B2C tenant
Azure Active Directory B2C provides business-to-customer identity as a service. Your customers use their preferred social, enterprise, or local account identities to get single sign-on access to your applications and APIs.
Azure Active Directory B2C (Azure AD B2C) integrates directly with Azure Multi-Factor Authentication so that you can add a second layer of security to sign-up and sign-in experiences in your applications.

• B. No

Answer: A

Explanation:
Site Recovery can replicate on-premises VMware VMs, Hyper-V VMs, physical servers (Windows and Linux), Azure Stack VMs to Azure.
Note: Site Recovery helps ensure business continuity by keeping business apps and workloads running during outages. Site Recovery replicates workloads running on physical and virtual machines (VMs) from a primary site to a secondary location. When an outage occurs at your primary site, you fail over to secondary location, and access apps from there. After the primary location is running again, you can fail back to it.
