Question 1

A healthcare company requires a storage solution for patient records.

Compliance mandates that the data must be highly available within the primary region, surviving a datacenter failure. Additionally, the data must be replicated to a secondary region hundreds of miles away for disaster recovery. In the event of a regional outage, the secondary region must be available for read access immediately without waiting for a failover.

Which storage redundancy option should you recommend?

Accepted Answer

Combine the requirements: 'survive datacenter failure' = Zone (Z). 'secondary region' = Geo (G). 'read access immediately' = Read-Access (RA). Result: RA-GZRS.

Question 2

What mistakes do candidates make on this AZ-305 question?

Accepted Answer

Choosing RA-GRS, missing the requirement that the primary region must survive a datacenter failure (which requires the 'Z' for Zone).
