A key that changes dynamically

A key that is used for storing encrypted data

Question 25: What feature in Azure App Service ensures that the web app remains active and responsive by keeping the app always loaded?

Always On

Auto-scale

Load Balancer

Deployment Slots

Question 26: In the context of Azure Functions, what is a durable orchestrator function?

A function that executes external APIs

A function that coordinates the execution of other functions in a defined sequence

A function that runs indefinitely

A function that handles HTTP requests

Question 27: What is the typical use case for Azure Event Hubs?

Storing relational data

Real-time data ingestion and stream processing

Hosting static websites

Managing virtual machines

Question 28: Which type of Azure Storage is designed to store large amounts of unstructured data such as images, videos, and documents?

Blob Storage

Table Storage

File Storage

Disk Storage

Question 29: In Azure Durable Functions, which pattern executes multiple activity functions in parallel and aggregates the results?

Chaining

Fan out/fan in

Monitor

Async HTTP APIs

Question 30: What is the purpose of using the "Event Grid trigger" in an Azure Function?

To run the function on a schedule

To start the function when a new event is received from Azure Event Grid

To trigger the function based on blob storage updates

To trigger the function when a message is added to a queue

Question 31: What is the recommended method to connect multiple services in Azure without hard-coding credentials?

Managed Identities

Shared Access Signatures (SAS)

API Keys

Static Credentials

Question 32: What is the primary benefit of using Azure Queue Storage?

High read/write throughput for large datasets

Asynchronous messaging between services

Real-time streaming of large files

Fast computation for scientific workloads

Question 33: What is the main difference between Azure Key Vault soft delete and purge protection?

Soft delete prevents accidental deletions, while purge protection prevents permanent deletions

Purge protection is for encrypted data only

Soft delete encrypts keys, while purge protection deletes them after 7 days

Purge protection applies only to shared resources

Question 34: What is a key difference between using Azure Service Bus and Azure Event Grid?

Service Bus supports message queues, while Event Grid is used for event-based architecture

Event Grid has better real-time processing capabilities

Service Bus is used for file storage

Event Grid handles relational data

Question 35: What is the recommended API for accessing Azure Cosmos DB with a graph-based data structure?

SQL API

Gremlin API

Table API

Cassandra API

Question 36: In Azure Service Bus, what is the purpose of a dead-letter queue?

To hold large files temporarily

To store messages that cannot be delivered or processed

To manage real-time event streams

To create backup copies of messages

Question 37: How does the Cosmos DB "change feed" feature work?

It automatically archives old data

It triggers an event when data is inserted or updated

It periodically backs up the database

It reorganizes partitions dynamically

Question 38: In Cosmos DB, what is the result of using a "hot" partition?

Improved read performance

Overloading the partition with too many requests

Reduced latency for write operations

Enhanced consistency

Question 39: What is the advantage of using Cosmos DB's eventual consistency level?

Ensures global data consistency

Provides the lowest latency and highest availability

Guarantees that data is always fresh

Ensures that data is only available in one region

Question 40: What is the retention policy for Application Insights logs stored in Azure Blob Storage by default?

7 days

30 days

90 days

No default retention policy
