Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: B, C
Explanation
Configuring a storage account container (Option 2) and enabling the database backup with the correct connection string (Option 3) are essential steps when setting up a scheduled backup for an Azure Web App that includes an Azure SQL Database. The Standard tier already supports backups, so moving to Premium or using an Isolated App Service Environment is not necessary, and adjusting scale-out settings does not affect backup functionality.
- A. Incorrect.
Upgrading to Premium tier is not strictly required; back-ups are available starting from the Standard tier.
- B. Correct.
You must specify where to store your backups; configuring a storage account container is required for App Service backups.
- C. Correct.
To back up an Azure SQL Database along with your Web App, you must enable the database backup option and provide the connection string in the Backup blade.
- D. Incorrect.
An Isolated App Service Environment is not required for backing up the Web App and its database; it's for hosting in a private network.
- E. Incorrect.
Scale-out settings manage how your app scales, not its backup configuration.
