Microsoft Azure Architect Design (2020, legacy) — Question 38
You plan to deploy an application that will run in a Linux-based Docker container.
You need to recommend a solution to host the application in Azure. The solution must meet the following requirements:
✑ Support a custom domain name and an associated SSL certificate.
✑ Scale-out automatically based on demand.
✑ Minimize administrative effort and costs.
What should you include in the recommendation?
Answer options
- A. Azure App Service
- B. Azure Container Instances
- C. an Azure virtual machine
- D. Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS)
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct choice is Azure App Service because it provides built-in support for custom domains and SSL certificates, along with automatic scaling features, which significantly reduces administrative overhead. The other options, such as Azure Container Instances and Azure Kubernetes Service, may not fully meet all the requirements, especially regarding the ease of use and management costs.
