You have an Azure subscription that contains resources in three Azure regions. You need to implement Azure Key Vault to meet the following requirements: D18912E1457D5D1DDCBD40AB3BF70D5D
In the event of a regional outage, all keys must be readable.
All the resources in the subscription must be able to access Key Vault. The number of Key Vault resources to be deployed and managed must be minimized. How many instances of Key Vault should you implement?
Correct Answer:A
The contents of your key vault are replicated within the region and to a secondary region at least 150 miles away but within the same geography. This maintains high durability of your keys and secrets. See the Azure paired regions document for details on specific region pairs.
Example: Secrets that must be shared by your application in both Europe West and Europe North. Minimize these as much as you can. Put these in a key vault in either of the two regions. Use the same URI from both regions. Microsoft will fail over the Key Vault service internally.

You are designing a large Azure environment that will contain many subscriptions. You plan to use Azure Policy as part of a governance solution.
To which three scopes can you assign Azure Policy definitions? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Correct Answer:ABD
Azure Policy evaluates resources in Azure by comparing the properties of those resources to business rules. Once your business rules have been formed, the policy definition or initiative is assigned to any scope of resources that Azure supports, such as management groups, subscriptions, resource groups, or individual resources.

You architect a solution that calculates 3D geometry from height-map data. You have the following requirements:
Perform calculations in Azure.
Each node must communicate data to every other node.
Maximize the number of nodes to calculate multiple scenes as fast as possible. Require the least amount of effort to implement.
You need to recommend a solution.
Which two actions should you recommend? Each correct answer presents part of the solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Correct Answer:AC

You design a solution for the web tier of WebApp1 as shown in the exhibit.
For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select No.
Solution:
Box 1: Yes
Any new deployments to Azure must be redundant in case an Azure region fails.
Traffic Manager uses DNS to direct client requests to the most appropriate service endpoint based on a
traffic-routing method and the health of the endpoints. An endpoint is any Internet-facing service hosted inside or outside of Azure. Traffic Manager provides a range of traffic-routing methods and endpoint monitoring options to suit different application needs and automatic failover models. Traffic Manager is resilient to failure, including the failure of an entire Azure region.
Box 2: Yes
Recent changes in Azure brought some significant changes in autoscaling options for Azure Web Apps (i.e. Azure App Service to be precise as scaling happens on App Service plan level and has effect on all Web Apps running in that App Service plan).
Box 3: No
Traffic Manager provides a range of traffic-routing methods and endpoint monitoring options to suit different application needs and automatic failover models. Traffic Manager is resilient to failure, including the failure of an entire Azure region.

You have an on-premises network to which you deploy a virtual appliance.
You plan to deploy several Azure virtual machines and connect the on-premises network to Azure by using a Site-to-Site connection.
All network traffic that will be directed from the Azure virtual machines to a specific subnet must flow through the virtual appliance.
You need to recommend solutions to manage network traffic.
Which two options should you recommend? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.
Correct Answer:CD
Connectivity can be from an any-to-any (IP VPN) network, a point-to-point Ethernet network, or a virtual cross-connection through a connectivity provider at a co-location facility. ExpressRoute connections do not go over the public Internet. This allows ExpressRoute connections to offer more reliability, faster speeds, lower latencies, and higher security than typical connections over the Internet.
