Microsoft Azure Fundamentals — Question 194

You plan to deploy several Azure virtual machines.
You need to ensure that the services running on the virtual machines remain available if a single data center fails.
What are two possible solutions? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.

Answer options

• A. Deploy the virtual machines to two or more availability zones.
• B. Deploy the virtual machines to two or more resource groups.
• C. Deploy the virtual machines to a scale set.
• D. Deploy the virtual machines to two or more regions.

Correct answer: A, D

Explanation

The correct answers are A and D because deploying virtual machines across multiple availability zones (A) and regions (D) provides redundancy and high availability. Options B and C do not ensure availability during a data center failure as resource groups and scale sets are not designed for this purpose.
