DRAG DROP (Drag and Drop is not supported)
Match the Azure services to the appropriate descriptions.

To answer, drag the appropriate service from the column on the left to its description on the right. Each service may be used once, more than once, or not at all.

NOTE: Each correct match is worth one point.

  1. See Explanation section for answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:




Box 1: ExpressRoute
ExpressRoute lets you extend your on-premises networks into the Microsoft cloud over a private connection with the help of a connectivity provider. With ExpressRoute, you can establish connections to Microsoft cloud services, such as Microsoft Azure and Microsoft 365.

Box 2: Virtual network peering
Virtual network peering enables you to seamlessly connect two or more Virtual Networks in Azure. The virtual networks appear as one for connectivity purposes. The traffic between virtual machines in peered virtual networks uses the Microsoft backbone infrastructure.

Box 3: VPN gateway
VPN gateways provide secure connectivity between multiple sites, such as on-premises data centers, Google Cloud Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) networks, and Google Cloud VMware Engine private clouds. Traffic is encrypted because the VPN connections traverse the internet.

  1. See Explanation section for answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:



Which cloud service model minimizes the management responsibility of a customer?

  1. infrastructure as a service (IaaS)
  2. platform as a service (PaaS)
  3. software as a service (SaaS)

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Software as a service (SaaS) allows users to connect to and use cloud-based apps over the Internet. Common examples are email, calendaring, and office tools (such as Microsoft Office 365).
SaaS provides a complete software solution that you purchase on a pay-as-you-go basis from a cloud service provider. You rent the use of an app for your organization, and your users connect to it over the Internet, usually with a web browser. All of the underlying infrastructure, middleware, app software, and app data are located in the service provider’s data center. The service provider manages the hardware and software, and with the appropriate service agreement, will ensure the availability and the security of the app and your data as well. SaaS allows your organization to get quickly up and running with an app at minimal upfront cost.

HOTSPOT (Drag and Drop is not supported)
Select the answer that correctly completes the sentence.

  1. See Explanation section for answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:



Box 1: elasticity
Elastic computing is the ability to quickly expand or decrease computer processing, memory, and storage resources to meet changing demands without worrying about capacity planning and engineering for peak usage. Typically controlled by system monitoring tools, elastic computing matches the amount of resources allocated to the amount of resources actually needed without disrupting operations. With cloud elasticity, a company avoids paying for unused capacity or idle resources and doesn’t have to worry about investing in the purchase or maintenance of additional resources and equipment.

Incorrect:
* governance
App governance integration with Azure AD and Defender for Cloud Apps
App governance, Azure AD, and Defender for Cloud Apps collect and provide different data sets:

App governance provides detailed information about an app’s activity at the API level.
Azure AD provides foundational app metadata and detailed information on sign-ins to apps.
Defender for Cloud Apps provides app risk information.

What should a desktop application use to interact with Azure and manage resources?

  1. APIs
  2. Azure Resource Manager (ARM) templates
  3. Azure Command-Line Interface (CLI)
  4. Azure Cloud Shell

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Infrastructure as Code: manage configuration using code. To make APIs calls based on what is written on the code instead of using graphical interfaces.

The word configuration was purposeful. When we talk about Infrastructure as Code we are not referring to just virtualized hardware anymore. But to any kind of configuration that can be managed through API.

APIs were the Infrastructure as Code movement enabler.
Nowadays, it is common to manage SaaS configuration and other tools using code. Even for internal platforms, this had become possible.

So, when someone talks to you about Infrastructure as Code remember: are the APIs that make all this possible!

Note: Infrastructure as Code is the process of managing and provisioning resources through declarative configuration files. Infrastructure as code tools use a declarative end state specification to guarantee a set of resources are created and configured the same way each time. Further, most infrastructure as code tools monitor resources to make sure they remain configured in the desired state.

DRAG DROP (Drag and Drop is not supported)
Match the cloud computing benefits to the appropriate descriptions.

To answer, drag the appropriate benefit from the column on the left to its requirement on the right. Each benefit may be used once, more than once, or not at all.

NOTE: Each correct match is worth one point.

  1. See Explanation section for answer.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:




Box 1: Elasticity
Elasticity: The ability to automatically or dynamically increase or decrease resources as needed.

Elasticity focuses on the ability to automatically scale resources based on demand. This helps you to optimize your resources and reduce costs, while still ensuring that your applications have the resources they need to run smoothly.

Box 2: Disaster recovery

Box 3: Agility
Agility: Cloud services can allocate and deallocate resources quickly. They are provided on-demand via self-service, so vast amounts of computing resources can be provisioned in minutes.

Agility focuses on the speed and ease of allocating and deallocating resources. This allows for vast amounts of computing resources to be provisioned in a matter of minutes, making it easier for you to respond to changing business needs.
