What happens when you set an Azure Storage account to 'hot' access tier?
ADecreases redundancy options
BIncreases data retrieval costs
CEnables higher throughput options
DReduces availability guarantees
Explanation
Setting a storage account to 'hot' allows for optimal performance and increased throughput, unlike the incorrect options which don't apply.
Q82
Which Azure service is designed for automated deployment and scaling of applications?
AAzure Kubernetes Service
BAzure Functions
CAzure Blob Storage
DAzure Virtual Machines

What happens when an Azure Virtual Network has non-overlapping IP address ranges but shares the same region with other VNETs?
AThey cannot communicate
BThey can communicate directly
CThey require a VPN Gateway
DThey require a ExpressRoute connection
Explanation
Non-overlapping IP ranges allow for direct communication; the other options introduce unnecessary restrictions.
Q85
A company needs to store large volumes of unstructured data. Which Azure service should they use?
AAzure Blob Storage
BAzure SQL Database

Q90
What happens when you set a virtual machine's size to a smaller SKU?
AIt increases performance automatically
BIt decreases capacity and potentially resources
CIt enhances network throughput
DIt adds more virtual CPUs
Explanation
Setting to a smaller SKU decreases instance capacity and available resources, unlike options A, C, and D, which incorrectly suggest improvements or additions.
