You need to ensure phone-based polling data upload reliability requirements are met. How should you configure monitoring? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Answer:
Explanation:
Explanation
Box 1: FileCapacity
FileCapacity is the amount of storage used by the storage account's File service in bytes.
Box 2: Avg
The aggregation type of the FileCapacity metric is Avg.
Scenario:
All services and processes must be resilient to a regional Azure outage.
All Azure services must be monitored by using Azure Monitor. On-premises SQL Server performance must be monitored.

Topic 2, Contoso Ltd
Overview
Current environment
Contoso relies on an extensive partner network for marketing, sales, and distribution. Contoso uses external companies that manufacture everything from the actual pharmaceutical to the packaging.
The majority of the company's data reside in Microsoft SQL Server database. Application databases fall into one of the following tiers:
The company has a reporting infrastructure that ingests data from local databases and partner services.
Partners services consists of distributors, wholesales, and retailers across the world. The company performs daily, weekly, and monthly reporting.
Requirements
Tier 3 and Tier 6 through Tier 8 application must use database density on the same server and Elastic pools in a cost-effective manner.
Applications must still have access to data from both internal and external applications keeping the data encrypted and secure at rest and in transit.
A disaster recovery strategy must be implemented for Tier 3 and Tier 6 through 8 allowing for failover in the case of server going offline.
Selected internal applications must have the data hosted in single Microsoft Azure SQL Databases.
Tier 1 internal applications on the premium P2 tier
Tier 2 internal applications on the standard S4 tier
The solution must support migrating databases that support external and internal application to Azure SQL Database. The migrated databases will be supported by Azure Data Factory pipelines for the continued movement, migration and updating of data both in the cloud and from local core business systems and repositories.
Tier 7 and Tier 8 partner access must be restricted to the database only.
In addition to default Azure backup behavior, Tier 4 and 5 databases must be on a backup strategy that performs a transaction log backup eve hour, a differential backup of databases every day and a full back up every week.
Back up strategies must be put in place for all other standalone Azure SQL Databases using Azure SQL-provided backup storage and capabilities.
Databases
Contoso requires their data estate to be designed and implemented in the Azure Cloud. Moving to the cloud must not inhibit access to or availability of data.
Databases:
Tier 1 Database must implement data masking using the following masking logic:
Tier 2 databases must sync between branches and cloud databases and in the event of conflicts must be set up for conflicts to be won by on-premises databases.
Tier 3 and Tier 6 through Tier 8 applications must use database density on the same server and Elastic pools in a cost-effective manner.
Applications must still have access to data from both internal and external applications keeping the data encrypted and secure at rest and in transit.
A disaster recovery strategy must be implemented for Tier 3 and Tier 6 through 8 allowing for failover in the case of a server going offline.
Selected internal applications must have the data hosted in single Microsoft Azure SQL Databases.
Tier 1 internal applications on the premium P2 tier
Tier 2 internal applications on the standard S4 tier
Reporting
Security and monitoring
Security
A method of managing multiple databases in the cloud at the same time is must be implemented to streamlining data management and limiting management access to only those requiring access.
Monitoring
Monitoring must be set up on every database. Contoso and partners must receive performance reports as part of contractual agreements.
Tiers 6 through 8 must have unexpected resource storage usage immediately reported to data engineers.
The Azure SQL Data Warehouse cache must be monitored when the database is being used. A dashboard monitoring key performance indicators (KPIs) indicated by traffic lights must be created and displayed based on the following metrics:
Existing Data Protection and Security compliances require that all certificates and keys are internally managed in an on-premises storage.
You identify the following reporting requirements:
Azure Data Warehouse must be used to gather and query data from multiple internal and external databases Azure Data Warehouse must be optimized to use data from a cache Reporting data aggregated for external partners must be stored in Azure Storage and be made available during regular business hours in the connecting regions Reporting strategies must be improved to real time or near real time reporting cadence to improve competitiveness and the general supply chain Tier 9 reporting must be moved to Event Hubs, queried, and persisted in the same Azure region as the company's main office Tier 10 reporting data must be stored in Azure Blobs Issues Team members identify the following issues:
Both internal and external client application run complex joins, equality searches and group-by clauses.
Because some systems are managed externally, the queries will not be changed or optimized by Contoso External partner organization data formats, types and schemas are controlled by the partner companies Internal and external database development staff resources are primarily SQL developers familiar with the Transact-SQL language.
Size and amount of data has led to applications and reporting solutions not performing are required speeds Tier 7 and 8 data access is constrained to single endpoints managed by partners for access The company maintains several legacy client applications. Data for these applications remains isolated form other applications. This has led to hundreds of databases being provisioned on a per application basis
