Being browser-based, Azure Cloud Shell can be run on a browser from a tablet that runs the Android operating
system.

Question 3
Your company has several business units.
Each business unit requires 20 different Azure resources for daily operation. All the business units require the
same type of Azure resources.
You need to recommend a solution to automate the creation of the Azure resources.
What should you include in the recommendations?
| A. |
| B. |
| C. |
| D. |
Correct Answer : A. Azure Resource Manager templates
Description :
Section: Describe core solutions and management tools on Azure
You can use Azure Resource Manager templates to automate the creation of the Azure resources. Deploying
resource through templates is known as ‘Infrastructure as code’.
To implement infrastructure as code for your Azure solutions, use Azure Resource Manager templates. The
template is a JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) file that defines the infrastructure and configuration for your
project. The template uses declarative syntax, which lets you state what you intend to deploy without having to
write the sequence of programming commands to create it. In the template, you specify the resources to deploy
and the properties for those resources.

Question 5
For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select No.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
| A. |
| B. |
| C. |
| D. |
Correct Answer : D. No, Yes, Yes
Description :
Box 1: No
A PaaS solution does not provide access to the operating system. The Azure Web Apps service provides an environment for you to host your web applications. Behind the scenes, the web apps are hosted on virtual machines running IIS. However, you have no direct access to the virtual machine, the operating system or IIS.
Box 2: Yes
Box 3: Yes
A PaaS solution that hosts web apps in Azure does provide the ability to scale the platform automatically. This is known as autoscaling. Behind the scenes, the web apps are hosted on virtual machines running IIS. Autoscaling means adding more load balanced virtual machines to host the web apps.

Question 6
You have a resource group named RG1.
You need to prevent the creation of virtual machines only in RG1. The solution must ensure that other objects
can be created in RG1.
What should you use?
| A. |
| B. |
| C. |
| D. |
Correct Answer : A. an Azure policy
Description :
Section: Describe identity, governance, privacy, and compliance features
Azure policies can be used to define requirements for resource properties during deployment and for already
existing resources. Azure Policy controls properties such as the types or locations of resources.
Azure Policy is a service in Azure that you use to create, assign, and manage policies. These policies enforce
different rules and effects over your resources, so those resources stay compliant with your corporate
standards and service level agreements.
In this question, we would create an Azure policy assigned to the resource group that denies the creation of
virtual machines in the resource group.
You could place a read-only lock on the resource group. However, that would prevent the creation of any
resources in the resource group, not virtual machines only. Therefore, an Azure Policy is a better solution.

A stopped (deallocated) VM is offline and not mounted on an Azure host server. Starting a VM mounts the VM
on a host server before the VM starts. As soon as the VM is mounted, it becomes chargeable. For this reason,
you are unable to start a VM after a trial has expired.
Incorrect Answers:
You are not charged for Azure Active Directory user accounts so you can continue to create accounts.
You can access data that is already stored in Azure.
You can access the Azure Portal. You can also reactivate and upgrade the expired subscription in the
portal.

| D. |
Correct Answer : B. AD
Description :
Section: Describe core solutions and management tools on Azure
IoT Hub (Internet of things Hub) provides data from millions of sensors.
IoT Hub is a managed service, hosted in the cloud, that acts as a central message hub for bi-directional
communication between your IoT application and the devices it manages. You can use Azure IoT Hub to build
IoT solutions with reliable and secure communications between millions of IoT devices and a cloud-hosted
solution backend. You can connect virtually any device to IoT Hub.
There are two storage services IoT Hub can route messages to -- Azure Blob Storage and Azure Data Lake
Storage Gen2 (ADLS Gen2) accounts. Azure Data Lake Storage accounts are hierarchical namespace-enabled
storage accounts built on top of blob storage. Both of these use blobs for their storage.

Description :
Box 1: Yes
Traditionally, IT expenses have been considered a Capital Expenditure (CapEx). Today, with the move to the cloud and the pay-as-you-go model, organizations have the ability to stretch their budgets and are shifting their IT CapEx costs to Operating Expenditures (OpEx) instead. This flexibility, in accounting terms, is now an option due to the “as a Service” model of purchasing software, cloud storage and other IT related resources.
Box 2: No
Two virtual machines using the same size could have different disk configurations. Therefore, the monthly
costs could be different.
Box 3: Yes
When an Azure virtual machine is stopped, you don’t pay for the virtual machine. However, you do still pay for the storage costs associated to the virtual machine. The most common storage costs are for the disks attached to the virtual machines. There are also other storage costs associated with a virtual machine such as storage for diagnostic data and virtual machine backups.
