Question 1

You are designing the compute architecture for a highly available web application using Azure Virtual Machines.

The business requires a guaranteed SLA of 99.99% for VM uptime. You plan to deploy the VMs across multiple physical locations within the same Azure region to protect against datacenter-level failures (e.g., power, cooling, network).

Which TWO architectural components must you use to achieve this SLA? (Select TWO)
