• Question 354:

  HOTSPOT

  You have five Azure subscriptions. Each subscription is linked to a separate Azure AD tenant and contains virtual machines that run Windows Server 2022.

  You plan to collect Windows security events from the virtual machines and send them to a single Log Analytics workspace.

  You need to recommend a solution that meets the following requirements:

  1. Collects event logs from multiple subscriptions

  2. Supports the use of data collection rules (DCRs) to define which events to collect

  What should you recommend for each requirement? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

  

  

• Question 355:

  You have an Azure App Service app named App1. You need to recommend a solution to monitor the response times of App1 for end users. The solution must minimize administrative effort.

  What should you include in the recommendation?

  A. Health check in App Service
  B. Log Analytics
  C. Application Insights
  D. Azure Network Watcher connection monitor
  C. Application Insights

• Question 356:

  HOTSPOT

  You have an Azure subscription that contains the web apps shown in the following table.

  

  App Service plans use the premium service tier.

  Which web apps support WebJobs, and which web apps support deployment slots? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.

  NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

  

  

  ---

  Box 1: App1 and App4 only.

  The version 3.x of the WebJobs SDK supports both .NET Core and .NET Framework console apps.

  WebJobs is not yet supported for App Service on Linux

  Box 2: App1 and App2.

  When you deploy your web app, web app on Linux, mobile back end, or API app to Azure App Service, you can use a separate deployment slot instead of the default production slot when you're running in the Standard, Premium, or Isolated App Service plan tier.

  Azure Functions deployment slots allow your function app to run different instances called "slots". Slots are different environments exposed via a publicly available endpoint.

• Question 357:

  You plan to store data in Azure Blob storage for many years. The stored data will be accessed rarely.

  You need to ensure that the data in Blob storage is always available for immediate access. The solution must minimize storage costs.

  Which storage tier should you use?

  A. Cool
  B. Archive
  C. Hot
  A. Cool

  ---

  Explanation

  Azure cool tier is equivalent to the Amazon S3 Infrequent Access (S3-IA) storage in AWS that provides a low cost high performance storage for infrequently access data.

  Note: Azure's cool storage tier, also known as Azure cool Blob storage, is for infrequently-accessed data that needs to be stored for a minimum of 30 days. Typical use cases include backing up data before tiering to archival systems, legal data, media files, system audit information, datasets used for big data analysis and more.

  The storage cost for this Azure cold storage tier is lower than that of hot storage tier. Since it is expected that the data stored in this tier will be accessed less frequently, the data access charges are high when compared to hot tier. There are no additional changes required in your applications as these tiers can be accessed using APIs in the same manner that you access Azure storage.

• Question 358:

  You have an on-premises Microsoft SQL server named SQLI that hosts 50 databases.

  You plan to migrate SQL 1 to Azure SQL Managed Instance.

  You need to perform an offline migration of SQL 1. The solution must minimize administrative effort.

  What should you include in the solution?

  A. SQL Server Migration Assistant (SSMA)
  B. Azure Migrate
  C. Data Migration Assistant (DMA)
  D. Azure Database Migration Service
  D. Azure Database Migration Service

  ---

  Explanation

  This Azure service supports migration in the offline mode for applications that can afford downtime during the migration process. Unlike the continuous migration in online mode, offline mode migration runs a one-time restore of a full database backup from the source to the target

• Question 359:

  HOTSPOT

  You plan to create an Azure environment that will contain a root management group and 10 child management groups. Each child management group will contain five Azure subscriptions. You plan to have between 10 and 30 resource groups in each subscription.

  You need to design an Azure governance solution. The solution must meet the following requirements:

  1. Use Azure Blueprints to control governance across all the subscriptions and resource groups.

  2. Ensure that Blueprints-based configurations are consistent across all the subscriptions and resource groups.

  3. Minimize the number of blueprint definitions and assignments.

  What should you include in the solution? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.

  

  

• Question 360:

  Note: This question is part of a series of questions that present the same scenario. Each question in the series contains a unique solution that might meet the stated goals. Some question sets might have more than one correct solution, while others might not have a correct solution.

  After you answer a question in this section, you will NOT be able to return to it. As a result, these questions will not appear in the review screen.

  You have an Azure Storage account that contains two 1-GB data files named File1 and File2. The data files are set to use the archive access tier.

  You need to ensure that File1 is accessible immediately when a retrieval request is initiated.

  Solution: For File1, you set Access tier to Cool.

  Does this meet the goal?

  A. Yes
  B. No
  A. Yes

  ---

  Explanation

  The data in the cool tier is "considered / intended to be stored for 30 days". But this is not a must. You can store data indefinitely in the cool tier. The mentioned reference (see below) even gives an example of large scientific or otherwise large data which is stored for long duration in the cool tier.
