Microsoft Azure Solutions Architect Expert AZ-305 Practice Question

A company runs workloads in Azure across two subscriptions. The organization has three departments: Finance, Engineering, and Marketing. Each department hosts resources in dev, test, and production environments. Compliance requires that all Azure resources include the tags CostCenter and DataClassification. Only a defined list of approved resource types may be deployed in production. You are designing the governance hierarchy and controls. Which approach best meets the requirements with minimal administrative overhead?

  • Create separate subscriptions for every department and environment. Use Azure RBAC to block creation of unapproved resource types and apply the required tags through deployment-time ARM templates.

  • In each subscription, create resource groups for every department and environment. Apply resource locks on production resource groups to prevent unapproved resource types and rely on Azure AD Privileged Identity Management to ensure tagging compliance.

  • Enable an Azure Policy at the subscription level that audits for missing tags and instruct departmental owners to fix non-compliant resources manually. Organize management groups by department rather than environment.

  • Create a root management group and child management groups for Dev, Test, and Prod. Move each subscription to the appropriate environment management group and assign an Azure Policy initiative at the environment level that requires the CostCenter and DataClassification tags and restricts unapproved resource types.
