Correct answers: B, C
Explanation
Multiple staging slots and auto-scaling are only available at the Standard tier or higher. Additionally, custom domain and SSL configuration requires setting up a custom domain and uploading an SSL certificate in the App Service. Therefore, selecting a Standard or higher App Service plan and configuring the TLS/SSL settings are the essential actions to meet the scenario's requirements.
- A. Incorrect.
The Free tier does not support multiple staging slots or auto-scaling, so it does not meet the requirements.
- B. Correct.
Standard or higher plans provide staging slots and support auto-scaling, making them suitable for production needs.
- C. Correct.
To enable custom domains and SSL, you must configure them in the App Service's TLS/SSL settings.
- D. Incorrect.
The Basic tier does not offer multiple staging slots or auto-scaling, so it cannot fulfill all requirements.
