Microsoft Azure Solutions Architect Expert AZ-305 Practice Question

You manage several Azure SQL Databases that run in the General Purpose service tier. Corporate policy requires the following for all database backups:

  • Backups must remain available if the primary Azure region suffers an outage.
  • Auditors must be able to recover the databases in the paired secondary region without the need to maintain a continuously running secondary database.
  • The solution should use the lowest-cost built-in capability and must not require creating or managing active geo-replicated databases.

Which configuration should you recommend to meet these requirements?

  • Implement active geo-replication to a secondary database in the paired region.

  • Enable zone-redundant backup storage for each database.

  • Enable long-term retention (LTR) backups in a secondary region.

  • Configure read-access geo-redundant (RA-GRS) backup storage for the databases.
