    AZ-305 · Question 22 · Domain 2.1: Relational Data Storage

    You are designing a high-availability architecture for an Azure Database for PostgreSQL Flexible Server.

    The application requires zero data loss (RPO = 0) and automatic failover in the event of a datacenter outage within the primary Azure region. The solution must minimize failover time.

    Which high availability configuration should you recommend?

    Answer options:

    A.

    Same-zone High Availability

    B.

    Zone-redundant High Availability

    C.

    Geo-redundant backup

    D.

    Read replicas in a different region

    How to approach this question

    Match 'datacenter outage' to Availability Zones. Match 'RPO=0' to synchronous replication (Zone-redundant HA).

    Full Answer

    B.Zone-redundant High Availability✓ Correct
    Zone-redundant High Availability
    Azure Database for PostgreSQL Flexible Server supports Zone-redundant High Availability. This configuration provisions a primary server in one Availability Zone and a standby server in another. Data is synchronously replicated to the standby, ensuring zero data loss (RPO=0). If the primary zone goes down, it automatically fails over to the standby.

    Common mistakes

    Confusing Geo-redundancy (cross-region, asynchronous, RPO>0) with Zone-redundancy (cross-datacenter, synchronous, RPO=0).
