Exam AZ-900 topic 1 question 182 discussion

It looks like question #130. Difference: all VM vs Thirty .... However, it is the same answer = DevTest Labs

From chatgpt: Azure Virtual Machine Scale Sets Automated Scaling: Automatically increase or decrease the number of VMs based on demand, reducing manual intervention

DevTestLabs. They are specifically for this: Azure DevTest Labs is a service for EASILY CREATING, using, and MANAGING infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) virtual machines (VMs). https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/lab-services/devtest-lab-overview

Not sure where to find this topic in the learning syllabus ...

According to Chatgpt: To minimize the administrative effort required to deploy and remove the virtual machines, you should recommend using Azure Virtual Machine Scale Sets (VMSS). Azure Virtual Machine Scale Sets allow you to deploy and manage a set of identical virtual machines as a group. VMSS provides automatic scaling, load balancing, and high availability for the virtual machines within the set. It simplifies the process of creating, deploying, and managing a large number of virtual machines.

Devtest

The answer and reference given is correct. It is Azure DevTest Labs https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devtest-labs/devtest-lab-overview

Azure Dev test lab would be the correct one.

I would recommend using Azure virtual machine scale sets (Option C) to minimize the administrative effort required to deploy and remove the virtual machines. Azure virtual machine scale sets provide automatic scaling and management of multiple virtual machines. With scale sets, you can quickly deploy, update, and manage a large number of VMs, and you can automate the process of creating, configuring, and deleting VMs using Azure Resource Manager templates. By using virtual machine scale sets, you can reduce the administrative effort required to deploy and remove the virtual machines, as the process can be automated and managed at scale. Additionally, you can use scale sets to monitor and maintain the availability of your VMs, which is especially useful when you have a large number of VMs to manage.

This is no longer part of exam since syllabus refresh in May 2022?

it was on exam on 03/12/2022.

Was on exam 11/03/2022. Answer is good!

key words for dev tests: deploy, remove, ARM templates

This question is here three times :'D
