Your company operates an Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) forest with a single domain, named company.com, and has several geographic locations. The forest functional level is Windows Server 2016. The company has legacy on-premises applications that depend on AD DS and Kerberos authentication, and there are no plans to rewrite or replace these applications. The company is exploring options to migrate its applications to the cloud and has acquired an Azure subscription, but Microsoft Entra ID has not been configured. For testing purposes, you need to move the legacy applications to Azure and set up a test environment that: - Supports Kerberos authentication from the cloud without needing access to the on-premises network. - Minimizes changes to the applications. - Reduces additional AD management tasks. - Requires minimal effort to configure. You have already set up a single virtual network (VNet) in Azure and a site-to-site (S2S) VPN Gateway connection between the VNet and the on-premises network. To complete the setup and test the applications, what steps should you take?
Create a new VNet and create a new AD DS forest root domain on the new VNet.
Configure a Microsoft Entra domain named company.com.
Deploy one or more domain controllers for company.com on the existing VNet.

This phase involves executing the migration plan, testing the migrated resources, and ensuring a smooth transition to the cloud environment. Release Explanation Releasing the migrated workloads, applications, and data to production is a critical phase in the migration adoption process. This phase involves finalizing the migration, verifying the functionality of the migrated resources, and officially transitioning to the cloud environment.

You have an app that generates 50,000 events daily. You plan to stream the events to an Azure event hub and use Event Hubs Capture to implement cold path processing of the events. The output of Event Hubs Capture will be consumed by a reporting system. You need to identify which type of Azure storage must be provisioned to support Event Hubs Capture, and which inbound data format the reporting system must support. What should you identify? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area Storage Type: Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 Data format: Avro Storage Type: Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 Data format: Apache Parquet Storage Type: Premium Block blobs Data format: Avro Storage Type: Premium Block blobs Data format: JSON

Storage Type: Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 Data format: Avro Explanation Event Hubs Capture supports both Apache Avro and Parquet formats for output event serialization. However, Parquet format is only supported via Azure Stream Analytics integration. Therefore, if you want to use Event Hubs Capture to store captured data in your own Azure Blob Storage account or Azure Data Lake Storage account, you would need to use Apache Avro format

You are designing an app that will be hosted on Azure virtual machines that run Ubuntu. The app will use a third-party email service to send email messages to users. The third-party email service requires that the app authenticate by using an API key. You need to recommend an Azure Key Vault solution for storing and accessing the API key. The solution must minimize administrative effort. What should you recommend using to store and access the key Storage : Certificate Access: Managed Identity Storage : Key Access: Service Principal Storage : Key Access: Managed Identity Storage : Secret Access: Managed Identity

Storage : Secret Access: Managed Identity Explanation Storing the API key as a secret in Azure Key Vault and accessing it using a Managed Identity is the most suitable solution for this scenario. Secrets in Azure Key Vault are specifically designed for storing sensitive information like API keys, and using a Managed Identity for access ensures secure and seamless retrieval of the API key without the need for additional credentials or keys. This solution minimizes administrative effort and aligns with the requirement to securely store and access the API key for the third-party email service. Add the API key as a secret in the Key Vault.

You need to recommend a solution to generate a monthly report of all the new Azure Resource Manager (ARM) resource deployments in your Azure subscription. What should you include in the recommendation? Application Insights Azure Analysis Services Azure Advisor Azure Activity Log

Azure Activity Log Explanation Azure Activity Log is the correct choice for tracking Azure Resource Manager resource deployments. It provides a comprehensive view of all activities that occur within an Azure subscription, including resource creations, updates, and deletions. By utilizing the Azure Activity Log, you can easily generate a monthly report of new resource deployments in your Azure subscription.

You have an Azure subscription that contains 10 web apps. The apps are integrated with Microsoft Entra ID and are accessed by users on different project teams. The users frequently move between projects. You need to recommend an access management solution for the web apps. The solution must meet the following requirements: * The users must only have access to the app of the project to which they are assigned currently. * Project managers must verify which users have access to their project’s app and remove users that are no longer assigned to their project. * Once every 30 days, the project managers must be prompted automatically to verify which users are assigned to their projects. What should you include in the recommendation? Microsoft Entra ID Protection Microsoft Entra Permissions Management Microsoft Entra ID Governance

Microsoft Entra ID Governance Explanation Microsoft Entra ID Governance is the correct choice as it provides capabilities for managing and governing user identities and access within Azure AD. It allows for defining and enforcing access policies based on user attributes, such as project assignments, and enables project managers to verify and manage user access to specific apps. Additionally, the automated prompt feature aligns with the requirement for periodic verification by project managers.
