storage account and storage are different things. You create your storage account to manage your storage.

Answered that to an official Azure Enginner and answered me that Azure Storage is PaaA (You don't have control over machines, networks, operating systems... you only store files and azure manages everything behind it)

A PaaS cannot exist without a IaaS, so the answer is YES. how can I create a PaaS without creating VM's?

you dont need VM for PaaS solution, PaaS solutions examples are Azure funtions, Azure Web apps and others.

I also thought so, until I looked at the question carefully. I believe the question's answer has everything to do with this line: "The company's migration plan states that ONLY Platform as a Service (PaaS) solutions must be used in Azure." It states that only PaaS can be used and nothing else.

Because you don't manage the VM's in PaaS, Azure/Microsoft does this -. (Not worry about updating). In IaaS you yourself have to take care of the VM.

Selected Answer: B
Azure Storage accounts are classified as a Platform as a Service (PaaS) offering. They provide a managed cloud storage solution that allows users to store and retrieve large amounts of unstructured data, such as blobs, files, queues, and tables, without the need to manage the underlying infrastructure. Azure handles the complexities of storage management, including scalability, availability, and durability, enabling professionals to focus on application development and data management rather than on hardware or server maintenance. While Azure Storage accounts do provide some infrastructure-level capabilities, such as performance tiers and redundancy options, the primary value lies in the abstraction and management of storage resources, which aligns with the characteristics of PaaS.

Selected Answer: B
No, this does not meet the goal. Here's why: The migration plan specifically requires that only Platform as a Service (PaaS) solutions are used. While Azure SQL Databases fall under PaaS, Azure Virtual Machines and Azure Storage Accounts are not PaaS solutions: Azure Virtual Machines (VMs): These are part of Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) because you manage the operating system and other configurations. Azure Storage Accounts: While they can be used in conjunction with PaaS, the storage services alone are not purely PaaS. To meet the requirement of using only PaaS, you would need to focus on deploying solutions like Azure App Services (for hosting applications), Azure SQL Databases (for database needs), and other managed platform services offered by Azure.

The answer is no because VM is Iaas service but other two are Paas offering that Azure SQL database and Azure storage account. so all should be Paas for meet the goal.

IaaS provides users with virtual computing resources, such as virtual machines, storage, and networking For the exam remember: Whenever you read "AZURE virtual machines" in this and other similar questions, we are talking about IaaS. The same applues for "Azure Storage Accounts" So the answer is B=No

No, the solution does not meet the goal specified in the company's migration plan. The migration plan explicitly states that only Platform as a Service (PaaS) solutions should be used in Azure. However, the solution includes Azure virtual machines and Azure SQL databases, both of which are Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) offerings rather than PaaS. To adhere to the company's migration plan, you should only deploy PaaS solutions in Azure. This could involve using services such as Azure App Service, Azure SQL Database (PaaS offering for SQL Server), Azure Functions, Azure Storage (which is acceptable in the provided solution), Azure Cosmos DB, Azure Key Vault, etc. Therefore, the solution provided does not fully meet the goal of using only PaaS solutions for the Azure environment.

Remember, they want ONLY PaaS. As soon as you see VM, it's an IaaS, meaning the answer to this is no. Storage account is currently still debatable but since VM is included in the suggestions, the answer is immediately No

A Virtual Machine is Infrastructure as a Service. You are only allowed to use Platform as a Service. So the answer is clearly NO.
