Microsoft Azure Solutions Architect Expert AZ-305 Practice Question

A company runs two Windows Server 2019 Azure virtual machines that host a stateless REST API. The VMs are deployed in a single availability set in the West Europe region and are front-ended by an Azure Load Balancer. A recent datacenter-wide outage in West Europe caused both VMs to become unavailable, violating the business requirement of a 99.99 percent uptime SLA for the compute tier. The solution must continue to use only the West Europe region and must not require changes to the application code. Which change should you recommend to meet the availability requirement?

  • Enable Azure Site Recovery to replicate the two VMs to another region and configure automatic failover.

  • Add an Azure Standard Load Balancer in front of the existing availability set to distribute traffic evenly across the two VMs.

  • Redeploy the application to an Azure Virtual Machine Scale Set configured for zone redundancy across three Availability Zones in West Europe.

  • Increase the fault domain count of the existing availability set from 2 to 3 to improve fault tolerance.
