Question 360 A specialized single-process service cannot be parallelized but needs more memory. Which change is vertical scaling? Move the resource to a different resource group Create another subscription Add identical web instances behind a load balancer Resize its VM to a supported higher-memory size Explanation Correct Answer D:Vertical scaling changes the resources of the individual instance. Incorrect Answers A:Administrative grouping does not resize compute. B:A subscription doesn't change guest RAM. C:Adding nodes is horizontal scaling and may not fit single-process constraints.
Question 361 A VM workload has nightly backups and management calls it highly available. What must still be addressed? Deploy redundant running instances or a suitable failover design Change backup vault tags to 'HA' Increase the number of retained backups alone Turn off health probes so users stop seeing failures Explanation Correct Answer A:Backups support restoration; they do not keep the service serving during a host failure. Incorrect Answers B:Labels do not alter service architecture. C:More recovery points do not provide continuously running capacity. D:Disabling detection doesn't provide an available instance.
Question 362 A company wants employees to access hosted Windows desktop sessions and centrally published apps from diverse devices. Which Azure service fits? Azure Storage Explorer Azure Container Instances Azure Virtual Desktop Azure Batch Explanation Correct Answer C:It provides cloud-hosted virtual desktops and applications for remote users. Incorrect Answers A:It is a storage-management client, not desktop virtualization. B:ACI runs containers rather than a multiuser Windows desktop service. D:Batch runs computational jobs, not interactive employee desktops.
Question 363 Remote workers use different personal laptops but must access a centrally managed Windows application environment. What Azure Virtual Desktop characteristic helps? Azure Virtual Desktop replaces identity and access policies entirely The session environment runs in Azure and users connect remotely A desktop session is identical to hosting a public static website All laptops must become Azure datacenter hosts Explanation Correct Answer B:The app and desktop session can be administered centrally instead of installed fully on each laptop. Incorrect Answers A:User access still requires authentication and appropriate assignments. C:Virtual desktops provide interactive user sessions. D:Endpoints are clients, not Azure infrastructure.
Question 364 A finance team needs only a centrally delivered Windows accounting program, not a complete remote desktop view. Which capability is relevant? Give every employee an unmanaged VM and require direct OS installation rather than a hosted desktop/app service Run the accounting application as an Azure Policy assignment Publish supported RemoteApps through Azure Virtual Desktop Use a storage account firewall as an app publisher Explanation Correct Answer C:Users can receive selected hosted applications rather than an entire desktop. Incorrect Answers A:That approach adds individual administration rather than centralizing the Azure Virtual Desktop delivery model. B:Policy governs resources, not user interface streaming. D:A firewall controls data connections but doesn't present the application UI.
Question 365 An AVD deployment has a connection broker but no session hosts available. What resource is still needed to execute user desktops? Appropriately configured session host VMs in a host pool Use a browser bookmark to a VM without provisioning a session-host pool A billing export schedule A managed identity alone Explanation Correct Answer A:Actual desktop sessions require the backing compute hosts. Incorrect Answers B:A URL alone cannot provide the Azure Virtual Desktop session-host infrastructure users connect to. C:Cost reports do not supply session compute. D:An identity has no CPU or memory for desktop sessions.
Question 366 A user is assigned to an AVD application group but has no network access to any desktop session host. What distinction matters? Assignment itself starts a new Azure region An Azure tag makes the desktop accessible from any device Entitlement to a published app does not replace session-host connectivity and health Application group assignment replaces the host pool Explanation Correct Answer C:Users need both correct access assignments and functional hosting infrastructure. Incorrect Answers A:RBAC and group membership do not create a region. B:Tags are metadata and cannot repair session connectivity. D:An entitlement object is not session compute.
Question 367 A team is launching a conventional web API and wants automatic OS maintenance without administering virtual machines. Which Azure service type is appropriate? Azure App Service Self-managed Azure VMs An Azure VPN Gateway Azure Files Explanation Correct Answer A:App Service hosts web apps and APIs as managed platform compute. Incorrect Answers B:VMs require more operating-system administration by the customer. C:The gateway provides private connectivity, not web runtime hosting. D:Files store data but do not execute the API server logic.
Question 368 A development team uses a supported application runtime and wants platform-managed hosting for HTTP requests. What should it check when choosing App Service? Whether a resource tag contains the runtime name Supported runtime stack and App Service plan capabilities Whether the Azure region has a default resource lock Assume any unsupported OS-level driver can be installed into a managed App Service host Explanation Correct Answer B:The chosen stack and plan must support the application's runtime and capacity requirements. Incorrect Answers A:A tag cannot install or enable runtime support. C:Locks are not application runtime compatibility rules. D:Runtime support depends on the App Service platform and plan; customers do not control all host components.
Question 369 An operations team wants to validate a new web release before switching production users to it. Which App Service feature can support this on eligible tiers? Deployment slots and a controlled swap Replacing all resource group permissions Disabling HTTP logs until after go-live Redeploy untested code directly to the live production slot with no staging or swap plan Explanation Correct Answer A:Slots provide independently deployable endpoints for testing before changing active production routing. Incorrect Answers B:Role changes do not test the new application build. C:Hiding diagnostics does not provide a staging environment. D:Deployment slots support separate validation and controlled swapping, which direct replacement does not provide.
Question 370 A team expects every App Service pricing tier to provide unlimited deployment slots. What must be checked? The storage account's blob tier The Azure availability zone count alone The selected plan tier's deployment-slot support and limits The length of the custom hostname Explanation Correct Answer C:Staging slots are plan features whose availability depends on the chosen tier. Incorrect Answers A:Blob tiers do not enable web deployment slots. B:Zones do not establish slot entitlement. D:Hostname length doesn't grant extra slots.
