Microsoft Azure Administrator Associate AZ-104 Practice Question
You are an Azure administrator tasked with setting up backups for your company's Azure virtual machines. The solution must enable centralized backup management, monitoring, and recovery of data. Which Azure resource should you create first to meet these requirements?
To enable centralized backup management, monitoring, and data recovery for Azure virtual machines, you should create an Azure Recovery Services vault. A Recovery Services vault is a storage entity that houses backup data and policies for IaaS VMs and other supported workloads, and it integrates with Backup Center and Azure Monitor for alerting and reporting. Backup vaults are a newer vault type intended for certain modern workloads such as Azure Disks and Azure Blobs; they do not protect Azure IaaS VMs. A general-purpose storage account provides raw storage but no backup orchestration, and Azure Site Recovery offers disaster-recovery replication rather than point-in-time backups. Therefore, a Recovery Services vault best meets the stated requirements.
