Microsoft Azure Administrator Associate AZ-104 Practice Question
Your company stores data in Azure Blob Storage and wants to reduce storage costs by transitioning blobs to lower-cost tiers over time and deleting old data. Blobs older than 30 days should be moved to the Cool tier, blobs older than 90 days to the Archive tier, and blobs older than 365 days should be deleted. What should you do to implement this requirement?
Turn on Azure Storage Analytics to handle blob transitions and deletions
Deploy an Azure Function that moves and deletes blobs according to their age
Set up a lifecycle management policy in the storage account to transition and delete blobs based on their age
Write a script to move and delete blobs based on their creation date
You should set up a lifecycle management policy in the storage account to transition and delete blobs based on their age. Azure Blob Storage lifecycle management allows you to define rules that automatically move blobs between access tiers and delete them after a specified period. This feature helps optimize costs without the need for custom scripts or additional services. Using Azure Functions or scripts would require more maintenance and do not leverage the built-in capabilities. Azure Storage Analytics provides logging and metrics but does not manage blob transitions or deletions.
