Developing Solutions for Microsoft Azure — Question 76

You have a workspace-based Azure Application Insights resource named Insights1 and an on-premises website. Access to the website from the internet is blocked. You plan to implement availability testing of the website by using Insights1. The implementation must maximize security and minimize the maintenance efforts. You need to decide which Application Insights availability test should be used to deliver the required functionality.

Which availability test should you use?

Answer options

• A. standard test
• B. multi-step web test
• C. custom TrackAvailability test
• D. URL ping test

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The custom TrackAvailability test is the best choice because it allows for tailored testing scenarios that can work securely within an on-premises environment. In contrast, the standard test and URL ping test are generally intended for public-facing applications, while the multi-step web test is more complex and may require more maintenance, making it less suitable for this scenario.
