Implementing an Azure Data Solution (legacy) — Question 39
You plan to deploy an Azure Cosmos DB database that supports multi-master replication.
You need to select a consistency level for the database to meet the following requirements:
✑ Provide a recovery point objective (RPO) of less than 15 minutes.
✑ Provide a recovery time objective (RTO) of zero minutes.
What are three possible consistency levels that you can select? Each correct answer presents a complete solution.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Answer options
- A. Strong
- B. Bounded Staleness
- C. Eventual
- D. Session
- E. Consistent Prefix
Correct answer: C, D, E
Explanation
The correct answers are C (Eventual), D (Session), and E (Consistent Prefix) because these consistency levels can accommodate the specified RPO and RTO requirements. Strong consistency does not meet the RPO requirement due to its strict guarantees, while Bounded Staleness may not provide the necessary recency for a zero RTO.
