Microsoft Azure Fundamentals AZ-900 Practice Question
You are designing a solution that requires massively scalable object storage for unstructured data. The data must be accessible over HTTP/HTTPS and support access tiers for hot, cool, and archive storage. Which type of Azure storage account should you create?
A General-purpose v2 (GPv2) storage account is the recommended choice for this scenario because it supports Azure Blob Storage, providing scalable object storage for unstructured data accessible via HTTP/HTTPS. GPv2 accounts offer multiple access tiers—hot, cool, and archive—which allow you to optimize costs based on how frequently the data is accessed. General-purpose v1 accounts lack support for all access tiers and may not provide the same performance and features. Azure File Storage accounts are designed for fully managed file shares in the cloud that are accessible via SMB protocol, not ideal for scalable object storage. Azure Disk Storage accounts are intended for persistent disk storage for Azure Virtual Machines and do not meet the requirements for object storage accessible over HTTP/HTTPS.
