Suggested Answer:
Box 2: Yes -
Usage scenarios for the hot access tier include:
✑ Data that is in active use or is expected to be read from and written to frequently
✑ Data that is staged for processing and eventual migration to the cool access tier

Box 3: No -
Usage scenarios for the cool access tier include:
✑ Short-term backup and disaster recovery
✑ Older data not used frequently but expected to be available immediately when accessed
Large data sets that need to be stored cost effectively, while more data is being gathered for future processing

The answer of 1st question should be NO. from Azure document: "Only the hot and cool access tiers can be set at the account level. The archive access tier can only be set at the blob level." Please see: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/blobs/storage-blob-storage-tiers

yes indeed. From the Azure Portal : The account access tier is the default tier that is inferred by any blob without an explicitly set tier. The hot access tier is ideal for frequently accessed data, and the cool access tier is ideal for infrequently accessed data. The archive access tier can only be set at the blob level and not on the accoun From your link : The Archive tier is not supported as the default access tier for a storage account.

It doesn’t make sense to me why there would be a storage tier at the account level that does not include archive tier, is it because Microsoft does not want accounts that are dedicated 100% to archival (since they make money on usage/data storage and transfer)?

Hot : Optimized for storing data that is accessed frequently. Cool : Optimized for storing data that is infrequently accessed and stored for at least 30 days. Archive : Optimized for storing data that is rarely accessed and stored for at least 180 days with flexible latency requirements, on the order of hours. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/blobs/storage-blob-storage-tiers

CoPilot: The Archive Access tier can be set at the blob level in Azure Storage. This means you can configure individual blobs to be stored in the Archive tier for long-term storage. It's not set at the entire storage account level, giving you the flexibility to manage different access tiers for different data within the same storage account. So I would take "It's not set at the entire storage account level" and so consider the published answer as correct.

1st: NO. Hot, cool, and cold access tiers can be set at the account level. The archive access tier isn't available at the account level.

The answer to 1st question is No. Found below from the Azure portal. You can create any storage account and try to select tier. The account access tier is the default tier that is inferred by any blob without an explicitly set tier. The hot access tier is ideal for frequently accessed data, the cool access tier is ideal for infrequently accessed data, and the cold access tier is ideal for rarely accessed data . The archive access tier can only be set at the blob level and not on the account.

The statement “The Archive access tier is set at the storage account level” is true. The Archive access tier is one of the four access tiers for Azure Blob Storage, and it is set at the storage account level. The statement “The Hot access tier is recommended for data that is accessed and modified frequently” is true. The Hot access tier is optimized for storing data that is accessed or modified frequently. The statement “The Cool access tier is recommended for long term backups” is false. The Cool access tier is optimized for storing data that is infrequently accessed or modified, but still needs to be available for reading and writing. The Archive access tier, on the other hand, is optimized for storing data that is rarely accessed and has flexible latency requirements, on the order of hours.

But according to the Microsoft training modules, the Archive tear can only be set at the resource level. So I wonder, who will be right ;)

3rd question should be yes? The Azure Cool storage tier is designed for storing data that is infrequently accessed and is often used for backup and archival data. It is a lower-cost storage option compared to the Hot tier, which is designed for more frequently accessed data.

Short-term backup, not long-term backup. When you need to store backup for long-term, you select the Archive Tier, not the Cool Tier.

The answer of 1st question should be NO. Storage accounts have a default access tier setting that indicates the online tier in which a new blob is created. The default access tier setting can be set to either hot or cool. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/blobs/access-tiers-overview
