AZ-104 Question 83
Single answerYou are an Azure Administrator at a multinational company. You have two Azure Storage accounts: 'sourceac' in East US and 'destinationac' in West Europe. You want to automatically replicate newly added blobs from the 'images' container in 'sourceac' to the 'imagesreplica' container in 'destinationac'. Which of the following is a mandatory step to configure object replication between these containers?
- A
Enable geo-redundant storage (GRS) on both sourceac and destinationac
- B
Enable the 'AllowBlobPublicAccess' setting in both storage accounts
- C
Create and configure an Object Replication Policy specifying the source and destination containers
- D
Enable Premium performance tier for both accounts
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
To configure object replication between two storage accounts, you must define an Object Replication Policy that references the source and destination containers. Enabling GRS or making the container public is not mandatory for this specific replication feature, nor is using Premium performance tier.
- A. Incorrect.
Geo-redundant storage (GRS) provides high availability but is not required for object replication policies.
- B. Incorrect.
Allowing blob public access is not a prerequisite for object replication. It deals with public endpoint accessibility.
- C. Correct.
An Object Replication Policy must be created, specifying the source account/container and destination account/container. This is essential for object replication.
- D. Incorrect.
Premium performance tier is not mandatory for enabling object replication; standard accounts can also support it.
