--C A S E S T U D Y-- Contoso, Ltd, is a US-based financial services company that has a main office in New York and a branch office in San Francisco. Existing Environment Payment Processing System Contoso hosts a business-critical payment processing system in its New York data center. The system has three tiers: a front-end web app, a middle-tier web API, and a back-end data store implemented as a Microsoft SQL Server 2014 database. All servers run Windows Server 2012 R2. The front-end and middle-tier components are hosted by using Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS). The application code is written in C# and ASP.NET. The middle-tier API uses the Entity Framework to communicate to the SQL Server database. Maintenance of the database is performed by using SQL Server Agent jobs. The database is currently 2 TB and is not expected to grow beyond 3 TB. The payment processing system has the following compliance-related requirements: -Encrypt data in transit and at rest. Only the front-end and middle-tier components must be able to access the encryption keys that protect the data store. -Keep backups of the data in two separate physical locations that are at least 200 miles apart and can be restored for up to seven years. -Support blocking inbound and outbound traffic based on the source IP address, the destination IP address, and the port number. -Collect Windows security logs from all the middle-tier servers and retain the logs for a period of seven years. -Inspect inbound and outbound traffic from the front-end tier by using highly available network appliances. -Only allow all access to all the tiers from the internal network of Contoso. Tape backups are configured by using an on-premises deployment of Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager (DPM), and then shipped offsite for long term storage. Historical Transaction Query System Contoso recently migrated a business-critical workload to Azure. The workload contains a .NET web service for querying the historical transaction data residing in Azure Table Storage. The .NET web service is accessible from a client app that was developed in-house and runs on the client computers in the New York office. The data in the table storage is 50 GB and is not expected to increase. Current Issues The Contoso IT team discovers poor performance of the historical transaction query system, as the queries frequently cause table scans. Requirements Planned Changes Contoso plans to implement the following changes: -Migrate the payment processing system to Azure. -Migrate the historical transaction data to Azure Cosmos DB to address the performance issues. Migration Requirements Contoso identifies the following general migration requirements: -Infrastructure services must remain available if a region or a data center fails. -Failover must occur without any administrative intervention. -Whenever possible, Azure managed services must be used to minimize management overhead. -Whenever possible, costs must be minimized. Contoso identifies the following requirements for the payment processing system: -If a data center fails, ensure that the payment processing system remains available without any administrative intervention. -The middle-tier and the web front end must continue to operate without any additional configurations. -Ensure that the number of compute nodes of the front-end and the middle tiers of the payment processing system can increase or decrease automatically based on CPU utilization. -Ensure that each tier of the payment processing system is subject to a Service Level Agreement (SLA) of 99.99 percent availability. -Minimize the effort required to modify the middle-tier API and the back-end tier of the payment processing system. -Payment processing system must be able to use grouping and joining tables on encrypted columns. -Generate alerts when unauthorized login attempts occur on the middle-tier virtual machines. -Ensure that the payment processing system preserves its current compliance status. -Host the middle tier of the payment processing system on a virtual machine Contoso identifies the following requirements for the historical transaction query system: -Minimize the use of on-premises infrastructure services. -Minimize the effort required to modify the .NET web service querying Azure Cosmos DB. -Minimize the frequency of table scans. -If a region fails, ensure that the historical transaction query system remains available without any administrative intervention. Information Security Requirements The IT security team wants to ensure that identity management is performed by using Active Directory. Password hashes must be stored on-premises only. Access to all business-critical systems must rely on Active Directory credentials. Any suspicious authentication attempts must trigger a multi-factor authentication prompt automatically.

1.) c. Azure Monitor Logs 2.) b. Azure Service Map 3.) a. Azure Application Insights 4.) d. Azure Activity Log

A company plans to implement an HTTP-based API to support a web app. The web app allows customers to check the status of their orders. The API must meet the following requirements: ✑ Implement Azure Functions. ✑ Provide public read-only operations. ✑ Do not allow write operations. You need to recommend configuration options. What should you recommend? 1.) Allowed authentication methods -all methods -GET only -GET and POST only -GET, POST, and OPTIONS only 2.) Authorization level -Function -Anonymous -Admin

1.)GET only 2.)Anonymous The option is Allow Anonymous requests. This option turns on authentication and authorization in App Service, but defers authorization decisions to your application code. For authenticated requests, App Service also passes along authentication information in the HTTP headers. This option provides more flexibility in handling anonymous requests.

You have an Azure subscription that contains resources in three Azure regions. You need to implement Azure Key Vault to meet the following requirements: ✑ 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? A. 1 B. 2 C. 3 D. 6

A. 1 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 developing a web application that provides streaming video to users. You configure the application to use continuous integration and deployment. The app must be highly available and provide a continuous streaming experience for users. You need to recommend a solution that allows the application to store data in a geographical location that is closest to the user. What should you recommend? A. Azure Content Delivery Network (CDN) B. Azure Redis Cache C. Azure App Service Web Apps D. Azure App Service Isolated

A. Azure Content Delivery Network (CDN) Azure Content Delivery Network (CDN) is a global CDN solution for delivering high-bandwidth content. It can be hosted in Azure or any other location. With Azure CDN, you can cache static objects loaded from Azure Blob storage, a web application, or any publicly accessible web server, by using the closest point of presence (POP) server. Azure CDN can also accelerate dynamic content, which cannot be cached, by leveraging various network and routing optimizations.

You have an Azure subscription that contains a storage account. An application sometimes writes duplicate files to the storage account. You have a PowerShell script that identifies and deletes duplicate files in the storage account. Currently, the script is run manually after approval from the operations manager. You need to recommend a serverless solution that performs the following actions: ✑ Runs the script once an hour to identify whether duplicate files exist ✑ Sends an email notification to the operations manager requesting approval to delete the duplicate files ✑ Processes an email response from the operations manager specifying whether the deletion was approved ✑ Runs the script if the deletion was approved What should you include in the recommendation? A. Azure Logic Apps and Azure Functions B. Azure Pipelines and Azure Service Fabric C. Azure Logic Apps and Azure Event Grid D. Azure Functions and Azure Batch

A. Azure Logic Apps and Azure Functions You can schedule a powershell script with Azure Logic Apps. When you want to run code that performs a specific job in your logic apps, you can create your own function by using Azure Functions. This service helps you create Node.js, C#, and F# functions so you don't have to build a complete app or infrastructure to run code. You can also call logic apps from inside Azure functions. Azure Functions provides serverless computing in the cloud and is useful for performing tasks

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 Data in the cool access tier can tolerate slightly lower availability, but still requires high durability, retrieval latency, and throughput characteristics similar to hot data. For cool data, a slightly lower availability service-level agreement (SLA) and higher access costs compared to hot data are acceptable trade-offs for lower storage costs. Incorrect Answers: B: Archive storage stores data offline and offers the lowest storage costs but also the highest data rehydrate and access costs. Archive - Optimized for storing data that is rarely accessed and stored for at least 180 days with flexible latency requirements (on the order of hours).

You are designing an order processing system in Azure that will contain the Azure resources: App1--webapp--process customer orders Function1--function--check product availability at vendor1 Function2--function--check product availability at vendor2 Storage1--storage account--Stores order processing logs The order processing system will have the following transaction flow: ✑ A customer will place an order by using App1. ✑ When the order is received, App1 will generate a message to check for product availability at vendor 1 and vendor 2. ✑ An integration component will process the message, and then trigger either Function1 or Function2 depending on the type of order. ✑ Once a vendor confirms the product availability, a status message for App1 will be generated by Function1 or Function2. ✑ All the steps of the transaction will be logged to storage1. Which type of resource should you recommend for the integration component? A. an Azure Data Factory pipeline B. an Azure Service Bus queue C. an Azure Event Grid domain D. an Azure Event Hubs capture

A. an Azure Data Factory pipeline A data factory can have one or more pipelines. A pipeline is a logical grouping of activities that together perform a task. The activities in a pipeline define actions to perform on your data. Data Factory has three groupings of activities: data movement activities, data transformation activities, and control activities. Azure Functions is now integrated with Azure Data Factory, allowing you to run an Azure function as a step in your data factory pipelines.

You have an on-premises network and an Azure subscription. The on-premises network has several branch offices. A branch office in Toronto contains a virtual machine named VM1 that is configured as a file server. Users access the shared files on VM1 from all the offices. You need to recommend a solution to ensure that the users can access the shared files as quickly as possible if the Toronto branch office is inaccessible. What should you include in the recommendation? A. an Azure file share and Azure File Sync B. a Recovery Services vault and Windows Server Backup C. a Recovery Services vault and Azure Backup D. Azure blob containers and Azure File Sync

A. an Azure file share and Azure File Sync Incorrect Answer: Use Azure File Sync to centralize your organization's file shares in Azure Files, while keeping the flexibility, performance, and compatibility of an on-premises file server. Azure File Sync transforms Windows Server into a quick cache of your Azure file share. You need an Azure file share in the same region that you want to deploy Azure File Sync. C: Backups would be a slower solution.

You are designing an Azure resource deployment that will use Azure Resource Manager templates. The deployment will use Azure Key Vault to store secrets. You need to recommend a solution to meet the following requirements: ✑ Prevent the IT staff that will perform the deployment from retrieving the secrets directly from Key Vault. ✑ Use the principle of least privilege. Which two actions should you recommend? A. Create a Key Vault access policy that allows all get key permissions, get secret permissions, and get certificate permissions. B. From Access policies in Key Vault, enable access to the Azure Resource Manager for template deployment. C. Create a Key Vault access policy that allows all list key permissions, list secret permissions, and list certificate permissions. D. Assign the IT staff a custom role that includes the Microsoft.KeyVault/Vaults/Deploy/Action permission. E. Assign the Key Vault Contributor role to the IT staff.

B & D B. From Access policies in Key Vault, enable access to the Azure Resource Manager for template deployment. To access a key vault during template deployment, set enabledForTemplateDeployment on the key vault to true. D. Assign the IT staff a custom role that includes the Microsoft.KeyVault/Vaults/Deploy/Action permission. The user who deploys the template must have the Microsoft.KeyVault/vaults/deploy/action permission for the scope of the resource group and key vault. Not E because: To grant access to a user to manage key vaults, you assign a predefined key vault Contributor role to the user at a specific scope. If a user has Contributor permissions to a key vault management plane, the user can grant themselves access to the data plane by setting a Key Vault access policy. You should tightly control who has Contributor role access to your key vaults. Ensure that only authorized persons can access and manage your key vaults, keys, secrets, and certificates.

You have an Azure Storage v2 account named storage1.You plan to archive data to storage1. You need to ensure that the archived data cannot be deleted for five years. The solution must prevent administrators from deleting the data. Solution: You create an Azure Blob storage container, and you configure a legal hold access policy. Does this meet the goal? A. Yes B. No

B. No Use an Azure Blob storage container, but use a time-based retention policy instead of a legal hold. Note: Immutable storage for Azure Blob storage enables users to store business-critical data objects in a WORM (Write Once, Read Many) state. This state makes the data non-erasable and non-modifiable for a user-specified interval. For the duration of the retention interval, blobs can be created and read, but cannot be modified or deleted. Immutable storage is available for general-purpose v2 and Blob storage accounts in all Azure regions. Note: Set retention policies and legal holds 1. Create a new container or select an existing container to store the blobs that need to be kept in the immutable state. The container must be in a general- purpose v2 or Blob storage account. 2. Select Access policy in the container settings. Then select Add policy under Immutable blob storage. Either - 3a. To enable legal holds, select Add Policy. Select Legal hold from the drop-down menu. Or - 3b. To enable time-based retention, select Time-based retention from the drop-down menu. 4. Enter the retention interval in days (acceptable values are 1 to 146000 days).

You have five .NET Core applications that run on 10 Azure virtual machines in the same subscription. You need to recommend a solution to ensure that the applications can authenticate by using the same Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) identity. The solution must meet the following requirements: ✑ Ensure that the applications can authenticate only when running on the 10 virtual machines. ✑ Minimize administrative effort. What should you include in the recommendation? 1.) To provision the Azure AD identity: A. Create a system-assigned Managed Identities for Azure resource B. Create a user-assigned Managed Identities for Azure resource C. Register each application in Azure AD 2.) To authenticate, request a token by using: A. An Azure AD v.1.0 endpoint B. An Azure AD v.2.0 endpoint C. An Azure Instance Metadata Service identity OAuth2 endpoint

1.) A. Create a system-assigned Managed Identities for Azure resource The managed identities for Azure resources feature in Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) feature provides Azure services with an automatically managed identity in Azure AD. You can use the identity to authenticate to any service that supports Azure AD authentication, including Key Vault, without any credentials in your code. A system-assigned managed identity is enabled directly on an Azure service instance. When the identity is enabled, Azure creates an identity for the instance in the Azure AD tenant that's trusted by the subscription of the instance. After the identity is created, the credentials are provisioned onto the instance. 2.)C. An Azure Instance Metadata Service identity OAuth2 endpoint See step 3 and 5 below. How a system-assigned managed identity works with an Azure VM 1. Azure Resource Manager receives a request to enable the system-assigned managed identity on a VM. 2. Azure Resource Manager creates a service principal in Azure AD for the identity of the VM. The service principal is created in the Azure AD tenant that's trusted by the subscription. 3. Azure Resource Manager configures the identity on the VM by updating the Azure Instance Metadata Service identity endpoint with the service principal client ID and certificate. 4. After the VM has an identity, use the service principal information to grant the VM access to Azure resources. To call Azure Resource Manager, use role-based access control (RBAC) in Azure AD to assign the appropriate role to the VM service principal. To call Key Vault, grant your code access to the specific secret or key in Key Vault. 5. Your code that's running on the VM can request a token from the Azure Instance Metadata service endpoint, accessible only from within the VM

You manage a network that includes an on-premises Active Directory domain and an Azure Active Directory (Azure AD). Employees are required to use different accounts when using on-premises or cloud resources. You must recommend a solution that lets employees sign in to all company resources by using a single account. The solution must implement an identity provider. You need to provide guidance on the different identity providers. How should you describe each identity provider? 1.) synchronized identity 2.)federated identity A. User management occurs on-premises. Azure AD authenticates employees by using on-premises passwords. B. User management occurs on-premises. The on-premises domain controller authenticates employee credentials. C. Both user management and authentication occur in Azure AD

1.) A. User management occurs on-premises. Azure AD authenticates employees by using on-premises passwords. Azure AD Domain Services for hybrid organizationsOrganizations with a hybrid IT infrastructure consume a mix of cloud resources and on-premises resources. Such organizations synchronize identity information from their on-premises directory to their Azure AD tenant. As hybrid organizations look to migrate more of their on-premises applications to the cloud, especially legacy directory-aware applications, Azure AD Domain Services can be useful to them. 2.) B. User management occurs on-premises. The on-premises domain controller authenticates employee credentials. You can federate your on-premises environment with Azure AD and use this federation for authentication and authorization. This sign-in method ensures that all user authentication occurs on-premises.

Which solution should you use for each application scenario? 1.) Store content close to end users: 2.) Store content close to the application: A. Azure Redis Cache B. Azure Traffic Manager C. Azure Content Delivery Network D. Azure Application Gateway

1.) C. Azure Content Delivery Network A content delivery network (CDN) is a distributed network of servers that can efficiently deliver web content to users. CDNs store cached content on edge servers in point-of-presence (POP) locations that are close to end users, to minimize latency. Azure Content Delivery Network (CDN) offers developers a global solution for rapidly delivering high-bandwidth content to users by caching their content at strategically placed physical nodes across the world. Azure CDN can also accelerate dynamic content, which cannot be cached, by leveraging various network optimizations using CDN POPs. For example, route optimization to bypass Border Gateway Protocol (BGP). 2.) A. Azure Redis Cache Azure Cache for Redis is based on the popular software Redis. It is typically used as a cache to improve the performance and scalability of systems that rely heavily on backend data-stores. Performance is improved by temporarily copying frequently accessed data to fast storage located close to the application. With Azure Cache for Redis, this fast storage is located in-memory with Azure Cache for Redis instead of being loaded from disk by a database.

Which two options should you recommend? A. Configure Azure Traffic Manager. B. Implement Azure ExpressRoute. C. Configure a routing table. D. Implement an Azure virtual network.

B. Implement Azure ExpressRoute. C. Configure a routing table. B: Forced tunneling lets you redirect or "force" all Internet-bound traffic back to your on-premises location via a Site-to-Site VPN tunnel for inspection and auditing. This is a critical security requirement for most enterprise IT policies. Without forced tunneling, Internet-bound traffic from your VMs in Azure always traverses from Azure network infrastructure directly out to the Internet, without the option to allow you to inspect or audit the traffic. Forced tunneling in Azure is configured via virtual network user-defined routes. C: ExpressRoute lets you extend your on-premises networks into the Microsoft cloud over a private connection facilitated by a connectivity provider. With ExpressRoute, you can establish connections to Microsoft cloud services, such as Microsoft Azure, Office 365, and Dynamics 365. 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.

You have an Azure Storage v2 account named storage1. You plan to archive data to storage1. You need to ensure that the archived data cannot be deleted for five years. The solution must prevent administrators from deleting the data. What should you do? A. You create an Azure Blob storage container, and you configure a legal hold access policy. B. You create a file share and snapshots. C. You create a file share, and you configure an access policy. D. You create an Azure Blob storage container, and you configure a time-based retention policy and lock the policy.

D. You create an Azure Blob storage container, and you configure a time-based retention policy and lock the policy. Time-based retention policy support: Users can set policies to store data for a specified interval. When a time-based retention policy is set, blobs can be created and read, but not modified or deleted. After the retention period has expired, blobs can be deleted but not overwritten. Note: Immutable storage for Azure Blob storage enables users to store business-critical data objects in a WORM (Write Once, Read Many) state. This state makes the data non-erasable and non-modifiable for a user-specified interval. For the duration of the retention interval, blobs can be created and read, but cannot be modified or deleted. Immutable storage is available for general-purpose v2 and Blob storage accounts in all Azure regions.
