    AZ-305 · Question 12 · Domain 1.3: Design Governance

    Your enterprise is adopting the Microsoft Cloud Adoption Framework (CAF) for Azure.

    You need to design an Azure Landing Zone architecture that provides a scalable, secure, and governed environment for new application workloads. The design must separate platform resources (like ExpressRoute and central firewalls) from application workloads.

    Which TWO management groups are standard components of the enterprise-scale Landing Zone architecture? (Select TWO)

    Answer options:

    A.

    Platform

    B.

    Landing Zones

    C.

    Decommissioned

    D.

    Development

    E.

    Infrastructure

    How to approach this question

    Recall the standard Azure Landing Zone (Enterprise-Scale) management group hierarchy provided by Microsoft.

    Full Answer

    In the Azure Landing Zone conceptual architecture (part of the Cloud Adoption Framework), the hierarchy under the root typically splits into 'Platform' and 'Landing Zones'. The 'Platform' management group holds subscriptions for shared connectivity (Hub), identity, and management. The 'Landing Zones' management group holds the subscriptions for the actual application workloads (often split further into 'Corp' for internal and 'Online' for public-facing).

    Common mistakes

    Choosing Development/Production, which is a common anti-pattern in enterprise-scale design (subscriptions should be democratized by workload, not just SDLC environment).
