Microsoft Azure Fundamentals — Question 260

How many copies of data are maintained by an Azure Storage account that uses geo-redundant storage (GRS)?

Answer options

• A. 3
• B. 4
• C. 6
• D. 9

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, as geo-redundant storage (GRS) creates six total copies of data: three in the primary region and three in the secondary region for disaster recovery. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not account for the full replication process that GRS implements.
