You need to recommend a disaster recovery solution for the back-end tier of the payment processing system.
What should you include in the recommendation?
B
Explanation:
Scenario:
The back-end data store is implemented as a Microsoft SQL Server 2014 database.
If a data center fails, ensure that the payment processing system remains available without any administrative
intervention.
Note: Auto-failover groups is a SQL Database feature that allows you to manage replication and failover of a group of
databases on a SQL Database server or all databases in a managed instance to another region. It is a declarative
abstraction on top of the existing active geo-replication feature, designed to simplify deployment and management of geo-
replicated databases at scale. Reference:

HOTSPOT
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.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Hot Area:

Explanation:
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 need to recommend a strategy for the web tier of WebApp1. The solution must minimize costs.
What should you recommend?
C
HOTSPOT
You are evaluating the components of the migration to Azure that require you to provision an Azure Storage account.
For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select No.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Hot Area:

You need to recommend a strategy for migrating the database content of WebApp1 to Azure.
What should you include in the recommendation?
D
Explanation:
Before you upload a Windows virtual machine (VM) from on-premises to Azure, you must prepare the virtual hard disk (VHD
or VHDX).
Scenario: WebApp1 has a web tier that uses Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) and a database tier that runs
Microsoft SQL Server 2016. The web tier and the database tier are deployed to virtual machines that run on Hyper-V.

HOTSPOT
You plan to migrate App1 to Azure.
You need to estimate the compute costs for App1 in Azure. The solution must meet the security and compliance
requirements.
What should you use to estimate the costs, and what should you implement to minimize the costs? To answer, select the
appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Hot Area:

Explanation:
Box 1: The Azure Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) Calculator
The Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) Calculator estimates the cost savings you can realize by migrating your workloads to
Azure.
Note: The TCO Calculator recommends a set of equivalent services in Azure that will support your applications. Our analysis
will show each cost area with an estimate of your on-premises spend versus your spend in Azure. There are several cost
categories that either decrease or go away completely when you move workloads to the cloud.
Box 2: Azure Hybrid Benefit
Azure Hybrid Benefit is a licensing benefit that helps you to significantly reduce the costs of running your workloads in the
cloud. It works by letting you use your on-premises Software Assurance-enabled Windows Server and SQL Server licenses
on Azure. And now, this benefit applies to RedHat and SUSE Linux subscriptions, too.
Scenario:
Litware identifies the following security and compliance requirements:
Once App1 is migrated to Azure, you must ensure that new data can be written to the app, and the modification of new
and existing data is prevented for a period of three years.
On-premises users and services must be able to access the Azure Storage account that will host the data in App1.
Access to the public endpoint of the Azure Storage account that will host the App1 data must be prevented.
All Azure SQL databases in the production environment must have Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) enabled. App1

must not share physical hardware with other workloads.
