Microsoft Azure Developer Associate AZ-204 Practice Question
You manage an Azure Storage account that contains a container named logs. To reduce costs, blobs must automatically move to a lower-cost tier when they have not been modified for 30 days. Blobs that have not been modified for 365 days must be removed from the account and incur no further charges. Using a single lifecycle management rule in the Azure portal, which set of actions satisfies the requirements?
Move to Cool after 30 days and delete after 365 days.
Delete after 30 days and move to Archive after 365 days.
Move to Cool after 30 days and move to Archive after 365 days.
Move to Archive after 30 days and delete after 365 days.
Moving blobs to the Cool tier after 30 days fulfills the requirement to lower storage costs while keeping the data quickly available. Because the requirement states that blobs older than 365 days must be permanently removed, the rule must specify a Delete action at 365 days. Moving to the Archive tier does not satisfy the requirement because archived blobs are still stored (and billed) and would not be removed. Deleting after 30 days violates the retention requirement, and moving to Archive after 365 days leaves the data stored instead of removed. Therefore, choosing Move to Cool at 30 days and Delete at 365 days is the correct configuration.
