Drag and Drop Question
You are developing a software solution for an autonomous transportation system. The solution uses large data sets and Azure Batch processing to simulate navigation sets for entire fleets of vehicles.
You need to create compute nodes for the solution on Azure Batch.
What should you do?
Correct Answer:

Explanation:
With the Azure Portal:
Step 1: In the Azure portal, create a Batch account.
First we create a batch account.
Step 2: In the Azure portal, create a pool of compute nodes Now that you have a Batch account, create a sample pool of Windows compute nodes for test purposes.
Step 3: In the Azure portal, add a Job.
Now that you have a pool, create a job to run on it. A Batch job is a logical group for one or more tasks. A job includes settings common to the tasks, such as priority and the pool to run tasks on.
Initially the job has no tasks.
Step 4: In the Azure portal, create tasks
Now create sample tasks to run in the job. Typically you create multiple tasks that Batch queues and distributes to run on the compute nodes.

Case Study 2 - Coho Winery
LabelMaker app
Coho Winery produces bottles, and distributes a variety of wines globally. You are developer implementing highly scalable and resilient applications to support online order processing by using Azure solutions.
Coho Winery has a LabelMaker application that prints labels for wine bottles. The application sends data to several printers. The application consists of five modules that run independently on virtual machines (VMs). Coho Winery plans to move the application to Azure and continue to support label creation.
External partners send data to the LabelMaker application to include artwork and text for custom label designs.
Data
You identify the following requirements for data management and manipulation:
* Order data is stored as nonrelational JSON and must be queried using Structured Query
Language (SQL).
* Changes to the Order data must reflect immediately across all partitions. All reads to the Order
data must fetch the most recent writes.
You have the following security requirements:
* Users of Coho Winery applications must be able to provide access to documents, resources,
and applications to external partners.
* External partners must use their own credentials and authenticate with their organization's
identity management solution.
* External partner logins must be audited monthly for application use by a user account
administrator to maintain company compliance.
* Storage of e-commerce application settings must be maintained in Azure Key Vault.
* E-commerce application sign-ins must be secured by using Azure App Service authentication
and Azure Active Directory (AAD).
* Conditional access policies must be applied at the application level to protect company content
* The LabelMaker applications must be secured by using an AAD account that has full access to
all namespaces of the Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) cluster.
LabelMaker app
Azure Monitor Container Health must be used to monitor the performance of workloads that are deployed to Kubernetes environments and hosted on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS).
You must use Azure Container Registry to publish images that support the AKS deployment.
Calls to the Printer API App fail periodically due to printer communication timeouts.
Printer communications timeouts occur after 10 seconds. The label printer must only receive up to 5 attempts within one minute.
The order workflow fails to run upon initial deployment to Azure.
Order .json
Hotspot Question
You need to configure Azure Cosmos DB.
Which settings should you use? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Correct Answer:

Explanation:
Box 1: Strong
When the consistency level is set to strong, the staleness window is equivalent to zero, and the clients are guaranteed to read the latest committed value of the write operation. Scenario:
Changes to the Order data must reflect immediately across all partitions. All reads to the Order data must fetch the most recent writes.
Note: You can choose from five well-defined models on the consistency spectrum. From strongest to weakest, the models are: Strong, Bounded staleness, Session, Consistent prefix, Eventual Box 2: SQL Scenario: You identify the following requirements for data management and manipulation:
Order data is stored as nonrelational JSON and must be queried using Structured Query Language (SQL).
Case Study 3 - City Power & Light
Background
City Power & Light company provides electrical infrastructure monitoring solutions for homes and businesses. The company is migrating solutions to Azure.
Current environment
Architecture overview
The company has a public website located at http://www.cpandl.com/. The site is a single-page web application that runs in Azure App Service on Linux. The website uses files stored in Azure Storage and cached in Azure Content Delivery Network (CDN) to serve static content.
API Management and Azure Function App functions are used to process and store data in Azure Database for PostgreSQL. API Management is used to broker communications to the Azure Function app functions for Logic app integration. Logic apps are used to orchestrate the data processing while Service Bus and Event Grid handle messaging and events.
The solution uses Application Insights, Azure Monitor, and Azure Key Vault.
Architecture diagram
The company has several applications and services that support their business. The company plans to implement serverless computing where possible. The overall architecture is shown below.
User authentication
The following steps detail the user authentication process:
7. The user selects Sign in in the website.
8. The browser redirects the user to the Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) sign in page.
9. The user signs in.
10.Azure AD redirects the user's session back to the web application. The URL includes an access token.
11.The web application calls an API and includes the access token in the authentication header.
The application ID is sent as the audience ('aud') claim in the access token.
12.The back-end API validates the access token.
Requirements
Corporate website
* Communications and content must be secured by using SSL.
* Communications must use HTTPS.
* Data must be replicated to a secondary region and three availability zones.
* Data storage costs must be minimized.
Azure Database for PostgreSQL
The database connection string is stored in Azure Key Vault with the following attributes:
* Azure Key Vault name: cpandlkeyvault
* Secret name: PostgreSQLConn
* Id: 80df3e46ffcd4f1cb187f79905e9a1e8
The connection information is updated frequently. The application must always use the latest information to connect to the database.
Azure Service Bus and Azure Event Grid
* Azure Event Grid must use Azure Service Bus for queue-based load leveling.
* Events in Azure Event Grid must be routed directly to Service Bus queues for use in buffering.
* Events from Azure Service Bus and other Azure services must continue to be routed to Azure
Event Grid for processing.
Security
* All SSL certificates and credentials must be stored in Azure Key Vault.
* File access must restrict access by IP, protocol, and Azure AD rights.
* All user accounts and processes must receive only those privileges which are essential to
perform their intended function.
Compliance
Auditing of the file updates and transfers must be enabled to comply with General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The file updates must be read-only, stored in the order in which they occurred, include only create, update, delete, and copy operations, and be retained for compliance reasons.
