Part 2 Flashcards
Azure Virtual Network
- Virtual networks with subnets with VMs
- Used to group VMs
- An emulation of physical networks
- Allows for isolation, segmentation
- Scoped to a single region
What two ways can you use to connect two Virtual Networks?
A VPN or VNet peering
NSG
Network Security Groups
- Controls traffic for VNs and subnets
VPN Gateway
Allows your VN to connect to your on premises via a VPN gateway (encryption)
- Connects on-prem to cloud
Azure Load Balancer
Distribute workloads
- Scalibility and High Availibility
Application Gateway
Web Traffic (HTTP)
- Allows for better traffic control
CDN
Content Delivery network
- Delivery of web content ot users to minimize latency
- If the app/web app is put on USA West, it will copy it over to lets say China 1 and make it less latency
POP
120+ locations
points of presense
Structured Data
Easily organized data
- each row/column of data is organized
Semi-structured
Each row is organized but each column might be different to one another
Unstructured Data
Videos/movies/PNG/txt
Azure Blob Data
Stores any file
- stores in containers
(Binary large object file)
Azure Queue Storage
Stores requests in a queue
- stores small pieces of data (like messages)
Azure Table Storage
Store data in tables (2D arrays)
Semi-structured
- use when you don’t need a strict schema
Azure File Storage
Like Blob but instead of blobs you have files
- instead of containers you have shares
- Unlike blob storage you access this with SMB
What is the difference between Blob and File Storage
Azure file Storage stores files
- Blob stores any other data like movies/PNGs etc…
Azure file Storage is acccessed with SMB
Storage Account
Group of services with all the storages options
Azure Disk Storage
Sends Disk Emulation in the cloud
- Persistent Storage for VMs
- Different Sizes/types/performacne tiers
Azure Cosmos DB
- Avaliable in many regions and can send semi-structured data anywhere you want
- Globally distributed
- Use multiple APIs
Azure SQL database
- Upload structued data to an SQL database
- Relational database services in the cloud
- DBaaS
- Structued data service where you can assing relations between different data sets
Name the six children of the Azure SQL family
- SQL Database
- Managed Instance
- SQL Data Warehouse
- SQL VM
- DB for MySQL
- DB for PostgreSQL
Structured Data vs Semi-structured data
Structured data is very organized data, can easily be searched for
- Semi-structured data is data that isn’t structured as much but contains metadata or other tags/markers
Managed Instances
Cloud-hosted SQL server that resembles a self-hosted SQL server instance
SQL Data Warehouse
Used for large datasets and make it easier to organize large data
SQL VM
- IaaS
- Gets all SQL benefits for the VM
- Allows user to edit OS
- Good for legacy applications that need configuration
DB for MySQL
An SQL database that is mangaed by cloud providers
- good for web apps
- E-commerce platforms
DB for postgreSQL
Provides more advanced features
- Support JSONB, full-text serach, custom extensions
- need more data base features
SQL Database
- Fully managed relational database service
- Store and manage data efficiently
Azure Marketplace
- Similar to an online shop to get templates and create different Azure Services
- First and third-party products
Microsoft Appsource vs Azure Marketplace
Azure markplace only has Azure services
Microsoft Appsource has things for all its services
