In this lesson
Prepare for the AZ-900 exam (Microsoft Azure Fundamentals). In this lesson: storage accounts (naming rules, endpoints, Standard general-purpose v2 and premium types), the five storage services (Blob, Azure Files, Queue, Table, managed disks), the four access tiers (hot, cool, cold, archive) with their minimum periods, rehydration from archive, and lifecycle management rules. Includes three original practice questions.
Preview the topics
- A website takes orders all day, and a background process must handle each one later, so that traffic spikes don’t overwhelm it. Which storage service fits?
- A company keeps invoices for five years. They’re almost never read, but when an auditor asks, they must open right away. Which tier is the most cost-effective fit?
- A team wants every new backup file stored in the archive tier, as soon as it arrives. What should they do?
