Microsoft Azure Fundamentals AZ-900 Practice Question

Availability Sets ensure that virtual machines are placed in different fault domains and update domains within a single datacenter. This placement spreads VMs across multiple physical hardware hosts, network switches, and power sources, reducing the impact of hardware failures or maintenance events.

Virtual Machine Scale Sets are used for deploying and managing a group of identical VMs for scalability but don't specifically address physical hardware separation for high availability.

Azure Load Balancer distributes incoming network traffic across multiple VMs but doesn't control their placement across hardware.

Azure Virtual Network provides networking capabilities but doesn't affect VM distribution for resilience.
