Q

Benefits of a paired region

A

Planned updated - only one region in a pair is upgraded at a time

Replication - Certain services provide automatic data replication

31
Q

Q

Zonal vs Zone Redunant services

A

Azure availability zones-enabled services are designed to provide the right level of resiliency and flexibility. They can be configured in two ways. They can be either zone redundant, with automatic replication across zones, or zonal, with instances pinned to a specific zone. You can also combine these approaches.

33
Q

How many resource groups can an Azure resource be in at a time?

A

1

34
Q

Can resources from different regions be in the same resource group?

A

Yes

35
Q

Why do you have to select a region for a resource group?

A

The resource group has metadata and management stuff that needs to live somewhere.

36
Q

Resource group deletion

A

When a resource group is removed or deleted, all of the resources within it are deleted with it. You can remove resource groups at any time. To delete a resource group, you need access to the delete action. You also need delete for all resources in the resource group. If you have the required access, but the delete request fails, it may be because there’s a lock on the resources or resource group. Even if you didn’t manually lock a resource group, it may have been automatically locked by a related service. Or, the deletion can fail if the resources are connected to resources in other resource groups that aren’t being deleted. For example, you can’t delete a virtual network with subnets that are still in use by a virtual machine.
