Selected Answer: B
A Storage Area Network (SAN) is a dedicated network that provides access to consolidated, block-level data storage. It is used to increase the availability of data and improve the performance of applications that require access to shared data. However, SANs do not provide features to ensure high availability of web applications, nor do they provide a mechanism to store data in the geographic location nearest to the user.

Selected Answer: B
The use of a Storage Area Network (SAN) alone is not sufficient to meet the stated requirements of ensuring high availability, improving the streaming experience, and storing data in a geographically nearest location. Other Azure services such as Azure Traffic Manager and Azure Media Services, as well as the selection of appropriate Azure regions, would need to be included in the overall solution design.

Selected Answer: B
B. No A Storage Area Network (SAN) is a specialized, high-speed network that provides block-level access to data storage. SANs are mainly used to enhance the performance and availability of data storage. While a SAN can provide high-speed access to stored data, it would not meet the goal of ensuring high availability and constant streaming experience for the web app. SANs also do not provide geographical replication or automatic failover to ensure high availability.

What storage u use has nothing to do with what your app is doing. OK, you will not use cold storage, of course, but faster or little slower disks don't have a big impact on the solution that has to provide a lot of content over internet and fast. This question is not about disk (storage) latency, but about internet access to content and its latency. Definitely NO. https://www.backblaze.com/blog/whats-the-diff-nas-vs-san/

Does Azure storage uses SAN behind-the-scenes? The closes option in Azure for the requirement given is Azure Media Services. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/media-services/latest/media-services-overview
