FULL PRACTICE EXAM

1. Trade wind Traders’ current on-premises datacenter has several hundred servers and available resources in the datacenter are currently very low. Management has asked you to research a solution that will allow for increased resources but will keep expenditure such as capital expenditure and operational expenditure at a minimum. What solution should you recommend?

  • Create a Hybrid cloud (CORRECT)
  • A complete migration to the public cloud
  • Create a new Private cloud
  • Create an additional Datacenter

Correct: A hybrid cloud is a combination of a private cloud and a public cloud. With a hybrid cloud, you can continue to use the on-premises servers while adding new servers in the public cloud. Adding new servers in Azure minimizes the capital expenditure costs

2. Tailwind Traders has recently moved to Azure cloud services from an on-premises Windows environment and the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) now wants to gain insights into how Azure resources are being used and costed. He wants to see the data displayed visually and be able to run reports on an ongoing basis in real-time. Which tool would you recommend using in this scenario?

  • Azure CLI  
  • Azure PowerShell 
  • Azure Portal (CORRECT)
  • ARM Templates

Correct: That’s correct, given the requirement to view data visually and create custom reports the Azure portal is the best choice. You can quickly find answers to questions using a range of reporting options.

3. Trade wind Traders has recently migrated to Azure cloud services. The company has just completed a review of its current configuration and has discovered that there is a selection of unused resources currently in existence including multiple AD accounts, multiple groups, multiple public IP addresses, and multiple network interfaces. The company wants to reduce costs to a minimum. You recommend removing the unused user accounts. Will this reduce the monthly costs?

  • Yes
  • No (CORRECT)

Correct: You are not charged for user accounts. Therefore, deleting unused user accounts will not reduce the Azure costs for the company.

4. Trade wind Traders is planning to migrate some of their data and resources to Azure cloud services and will make use of Azure’s pay-as-you-go subscription. What type of expenditure is the pay-as-you-go subscription?

  • Operational Expenditure (OpEx) (CORRECT)
  • Capital Expenditure (CapEx)

Correct: One of the major changes that you will face when you move from an on-premises cloud to the public cloud is the switch from capital expenditure (buying hardware) to operating expenditure (paying for service as you use it). 

5. Trade wind Traders has recently migrated some of its data and resources to Azure cloud services. Management requires that users can create virtual machines by using their Android tablets. You recommend that they use the PowerShell feature in Azure Cloud Shell. Will this recommendation work?

  • Yes (CORRECT)

As part of this design, you will deploy virtual machines to two or more resource groups. 

Does this design meet the requirements of the organization?

  • Yes
  • No (CORRECT)

Correct: A resource group is a logical container for Azure resources. When you create a resource group, you specify which location to create the resource group in. However, when you create a virtual machine and place it in the resource group, the virtual machine can still be in a different location. Therefore, creating multiple resource groups, even if they are in separate datacenters does not ensure that the services running on the virtual machines are available if a single datacenter fails

  • Azure Region failure

Correct: Availability zones expand the level of control you have to maintain the availability of the applications and data on your VMs. An Availability Zone is a physically separate zone, within an Azure region. Each Availability Zone has a distinct power source, network, and cooling. By architecting your solutions to use replicated VMs in zones, you can protect your apps and data from the loss of a datacenter. If one zone is compromised, then replicated apps and data are instantly available in another zone.

73. Tradewind Traders is planning to migrate some of their data and resources to Azure cloud services, Management has asked you to design a deployment plan that will guarantee services running on virtual machines will continue to operate in the event a single datacenter fails. As part of this design, you will deploy virtual machines to two or more regions. 

Does this design meet the requirements of the organization?

  • Yes 
  • No (CORRECT)

Correct: Each Azure region is paired with another region within the same geography (such as the US, Europe, or Asia). This approach allows for the replication of resources, such as VM storage, across a geography that should reduce the likelihood of natural disasters, civil unrest, power outages, or physical network outages affecting both regions at once. This question specifies a single Datacenter failure, not a region failure. Within each region, multiple datacenters exist to provide for redundancy and availability.

  • Multiple Container Instances
  • Multiple Subscriptions (CORRECT)
  • Multiple Resource Groups

Correct: There are different payment options in Azure including pay-as-you-go (PAYG), Enterprise Agreement (EA), and Microsoft Customer Agreement (MCA) accounts. Your Azure costs are per subscription. You are charged monthly for all resources in a subscription. Therefore, to use different payment options per department, you will need to create a separate subscription per department. 

76. Tradewind Traders are in the process of migrating their resources to Azure cloud services. Currently, they have several VMs deployed to their Azure subscription. Management has asked you to research how their on-premises users will be able to securely access the resources that have been migrated to Azure.

Select all options that apply.

  • A Load Balancer
  • An Application Gateway
  • A Virtual network
  • A Gateway Subnet (CORRECT)
  • A Virtual Network Gateway (CORRECT)

The virtual network gateway must be placed in a dedicated subnet within the Azure virtual network. This specific subnet is referred to as the gateway subnet.

To enable client computers on your on-premises network to communicate with Azure virtual machines, you need to configure a VPN (Virtual Private Network) to establish a connection between the on-premises network and the Azure virtual network. In this setup, the Azure VPN device is called the Virtual Network Gateway.

77. Tradewind Traders has recently migrated some of its data and resources to Azure cloud services.

  • Create a VPN for this server and a virtual network gateway for each other server.
  • Create a resource group for this server and a separate resource group for all the other servers. 
  • Create a single resource group for all the servers but place a resource lock on this server.

Correct: Networks in Azure are known as virtual networks. A virtual network can have multiple IP address spaces and multiple subnets. Azure automatically routes traffic between different subnets within a virtual network. The question states that a specific server must be on a separate network segment. The only way to separate this server from the other servers in networking terms is to place the server in a different virtual network to the other servers.

89. Tradewind Traders is planning to migrate some of their data and resources to Azure cloud services, Management has decided to only make use of the Platform as a Service (PaaS) offerings in Azure.
