Q 30, Review Exam 1

[darman210]

Before the trolls crucify me, I have no problem admitting when I misinterpret something. Anyway, here is the question:

_________________________________________________

A company plans to migrate to Azure. Compliance requirements mandate them to have a cloud infrastructure with low latency and high availability to support their business-critical workloads.

The appropriate Azure concepts must be taken into consideration during the planning phase.

NOTE: Select the appropriate option in the answer area that matches the description. Each correct answer is worth one point.

1. A set of datacenters deployed within a latency-defined perimeter and connected through a dedicated regional low-latency network.

2. Unique physical locations within a region. Each is made up of one or more data centers equipped with independent power, cooling, and networking. <strong style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit;”>_________________________________________________________________________________

The available answers to choose were: Region, Availability Zone, Recommended Region, & Alternate Region.

I answered AVAILABILITY ZONE for both, got #1 right, got #2 wrong.

The correct answer for #2 is REGION.

The descriptions for 1 and 2 sound like they’re both using different wording to describe an AZ.

Am I reading too much into this?!

Hi Darman,

Do not worry, no troll will crucify you! 🙂

An availability zone consists of multiple datacenters, and each datacenter has its own unique cooling, power, and networking. So the answer to question #2 is availability zones.

Now with question #1, the answer is Azure Regions.

Each Azure Region has multiple availability zones, and each availability zone has multiple datacenters.

The keyword here is a set of datacenters or a collection of a group of multiple datacenters. This implies multiple availability zones.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any further questions.

Thank you.
