Designing an Azure Data Solution (legacy) — Question 6
You plan to store 100 GB of data used by a line-of-business (LOB) app.
You need to recommend a data storage solution for the data. The solution must meet the following requirements:
✑ Minimize storage costs.
✑ Natively support relational queries.
✑ Provide a recovery time objective (RTO) of less than one minute.
What should you include in the recommendation?
Answer options
- A. Azure Cosmos DB
- B. Azure SQL Database
- C. Azure Synapse Analytics
- D. Azure Blob storage
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is D, Azure Blob storage, as it is designed for low-cost storage of large amounts of unstructured data. While Azure SQL Database and Azure Cosmos DB provide relational query support, they do not align with the requirement to minimize storage costs. Azure Synapse Analytics is more suited for analytics and big data scenarios rather than general data storage needs.
