Question 14: Correct
A software company is developing a software solution. The software solution is for a food
delivery-based company. The software needs to adhere to the following workflow:
- A driver selects the restaurants for which they will deliver orders.-
- Orders are sent to all available drivers in an area.
- Only orders for the selected restaurants will appear for the driver.
- The first driver to accept an order removes it from the list of available orders.
The application needs to make use of the Azure Service Bus service.
Which of the following actions would you implement for this requirement? Choose 3
answers from the options given below

Create a Service Bus topic for each restaurant for which a driver can receive messages.

Create a single Service Bus topic

(Correct)

Create a single Service Bus subscription

Create a single Service Bus Namespace

(Correct)

Create a Service Bus Namespace for each restaurant for which a driver can receive messages.


Create a Service Bus Subscription for each restaurant for which a driver can receive messages.

(Correct)

Explanation
Correct Answers – B, D and F
You should first create a Service Bus Namespace. Option E is incorrect since creating a
namespace for each restaurant would just be a maintenance overhead and difficult to keep track
via a program.
Here since the driver needs to choose the restaurant, that means the driver can be a subscriber.
Here you should have just one Topic. If you have multiple topics, then an order needs to be sent
to all topics. Then deleting an order once it has been picked by a driver will an issue. So, Option
A gets ruled out.
You can create subscriptions and create rules based on driver and area.

MultipleActiveResultSets=True

Explanation
Correct Answer – A
Having the Integrated Security=SSPI ensures that we use Window authentication which is a
more secure way of authentication
The Microsoft documentation mentions the following
 Option B is incorrect since this would mean that we need to specify a user name and password to
connect to the database

Option C is incorrect since this is used for specifying the network library

Explanation
Correct Answer – A
Since we need to encrypt data in transit as part of the case study, we have to set the Encrypt Key
word to True

Option B is incorrect since we are already using the Integrated Security=SSPI in the prior option

(Correct)

TableQuery query = new

TableQuery().Where(TableQuery.GenerateFilterCondition("PartitionKey",Equal, "James"));

Explanation
Correct Answer – C
Since the First Name is the partition Key, we need to use the Partition Key to retrieve the entity.
Options A and B are incorrect since we need to use the Partition Key to query the entity
Option D is incorrect since we need to use QueryComparisons.Equal clause

You create an Azure Service Bus instance by providing a name, pricing tier, subscription,
resource group, and location.
You need to complete the configuration.
Which Azure CLI or PowerShell command should you run?

New-AzureRmServiceBusQueue -ResourceGroupName "montana-rg" -NamespaceName montana -

Name montanaqueue -EnablePartitioning $False

A company is developing an application for a company. The application is making use of
CosmosDB as the backend store. The application store patient details for a hospital. Below
are the key requirements for certain modules:
Requirement 1 - The status for the patient must be the most recent. This should be the case
even if multiple users in different locations update the patient's records
Requirement 2 - The health for a patient is recorded by one module. Here it needs to be
ensured that the data must be either the current version or a prior version
Requirement 3 - When the patient is being discharged, all charges should be processed, and
the final bill should be processed
You have to ensure that you minimize the latency and any impact on the availability of the
solution.
Which of the following consistency level would you choose for Requirement1?

Strong

(Correct)

Bounded Staleness

Consistent Prefix

Eventual

Explanation
Correct Answer – A
Here since the requirement is that the patient’s record should be the most consistent, there is a
need for consistency in data and no staleness. So, we have to choose Strong consistency for this.
The Microsoft documentation mentions the following on the consistency level.
 The other consistency level options will not give you the required level of consistency

Which of the following consistency level would you choose for Requirement2?

Strong

Bounded Staleness

(Correct)

Consistent Prefix

Eventual

Explanation
Correct Answer – B
 Here you can have consistency up to a certain level. From the Microsoft documentation, you can
see that this consistency level provides a feature of providing consistency up to a certain number
of versions of an item.

Since this is the best consistency preference as per the requirement, all the options are invalid.

(Correct)

Explanation
Correct Answer – D
Since we here we just need to wait for the final charges, we can just wait for all changes to take
effect so here the most effective would be Eventual consistency.

 Ensure that the Azure Function is using an App Service plan.

Set Always On to false

Ensure that the Azure Function is set to use a consumption plan.

Set Always On to true.

(Correct)

Explanation
Correct Answer – D
Here the issue is that the Azure Web app is being stopped when it is not being used. For this you
have to ensure the AlwaysOn setting for the Web App is implemented as True as shown below
 The Microsoft documentation mentions the following on the setting.

Options A and C are incorrect since this is not an issue with the Azure Function, but with the
Web App
Option B is incorrect since the setting should be True

Basic

Standard

Premium

Isolated

(Correct)

Explanation
