Microsoft Azure Fundamentals — Question 210

Note: The question is included in a number of questions that depicts the identical set-up. However, every question has a distinctive result. Establish if the solution satisfies the requirements.
You are tasked with deploying a critical LOB application, which will be installed on a virtual machine, to Azure.
You are informed that the application deployment strategy should allow for a guaranteed availability of 99.99 percent. You need to make sure that the strategy requires as little virtual machines and availability zones as possible.
Solution: You include two virtual machines and one availability zone in your strategy.
Does the solution meet the goal?

Answer options

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The solution does not meet the goal because deploying only two virtual machines in a single availability zone does not provide the redundancy needed for 99.99% availability. To achieve this level of uptime, at least two virtual machines should be deployed across multiple availability zones.
