Azure Interview Questions

Azure Interview Questions
1. Can you explain the differences between IaaS, PaaS and SaaS in the
context of Azure?
To summarize, IaaS provides virtual computing resources, PaaS

provides a platform for developing and deploying applications, and
SaaS provides access to software applications hosted and maintained
by Microsoft.
2. How would you approach migration of on-premises applications to

Azure?
3.
Enable VMs for replication by registering the Hyper-V host(s) to
the Azure Migrate project. Configure Hyper-V VMs for replication,
monitor, and run a test failover. After migration
complete, migrated VMs should have security controls added.
3. Can you walk me through the steps for setting up a highly

available infrastructure in Azure?
** Identify the resources that need high availability:

Identify the resources that are critical to your application or workload
and need to be highly available. This may include virtual
machines, databases, storage accounts, and other resources.
**. Choose a high availability solution: Choose a high availability
solution that meets your requirements. Azure offers several
high availability solutions, including availability sets, availability
zones, and Azure Site Recovery.
**. Configure the high availability solution: Configure the
high availability solution for your resources. This may involve
creating availability sets or zones, configuring replication for
Azure Site Recovery, or other configuration steps.
** Test the high availability solution: Test the high availability
solution to ensure that it is working as expected. This may involve
simulating a failure of one or more resources and
verifying that the high availability solution is able to maintain
availability.
** Monitor the high availability solution: Monitor the high
availability solution to ensure that it continues to work as expected.
This may involve setting up alerts and notifications to
notify you of any issues or failures. Here are some more
specific steps for setting up high availability for some common
Azure resources:
4. How would you secure an Azure solution?
Azure Firewall is a cloud-native and intelligent network firewall security

service that provides threat protection for your cloud workloads
running in Azure. It's a fully stateful firewall as a service with built-in
high availability and unrestricted cloud scalability
5. Can you explain Azure Resource Manager and its benefits?
Azure Resource Manager templates enable you to define and deploy

any Azure resources you need to in a clear and consistent way. ARM
templates enable you to define resource details, including names,
locations, availability zones, security settings, and networks.
6. How do you manage storage and backup in Azure?
7. Can you explain the difference between Azure App Services,

Azure Functions and Azure Container Instances?
Azure Container Instances (ACI) provides a single pod of Hyper-V
isolated containers on demand. It can be thought of as a lower-level
"building block" option compared to Container Apps. Concepts like
scale, load balancing, and certificates aren't provided with ACI
containers.
8. Can you walk me through the process for monitoring an Azure

solution?
Azure Monitor is a comprehensive monitoring solution for collecting,

analyzing, and responding to monitoring data from your cloud and on-
premises environments. You can use Azure Monitor to maximize the
availability and performance of your applications and services. It helps
you understand how your applications are performing and allows you
to manually and programmatically respond to system events.
9. How would you troubleshoot a network connectivity issue in

Azure?
To open the network troubleshooter, go to the app in the Azure
portal. Select Diagnostic and solve problem, and then search for
Network troubleshooter
10 Can you explain how to implement disaster recovery in Azure?
In the Azure portal, open the VM properties page. In Operations, select

Disaster recovery. In Basics, if the VM is deployed in an availability
zone, you can select disaster recovery between availability zones. In
Target region, select the region to which you want to replicate the VM
11. Have you worked with Azure DevOps before? If so, can you give
an example of how you have used it in a project?
Azure DevOps provides a powerful dashboard interface that allows you

to create a personalized view of your project's data and workflows.
Here's how you can make the most of the Dashboards feature: Add,
configure, and manage dashboards: Create multiple dashboards to
reflect different aspects of your project.
12. Can you describe a solution you have designed and implemented
in Azure that addressed scalability and performance requirements?
The scaling is done by creating more instances which is called scaling

out. Another way of achieving the scaling is provisioning the larger role
instances, also called scaling up. Configuring scaling is easier in Azure
as compared to traditional hosting. The primary server does not need
to be taken down.
13. VHow would you handle cost optimization in an Azure solution?

1. Rightsize Your Compute Resources Proactively. ...
2. Monitor & Correct Cost Anomalies. ...
3. Choose the Right Storage Type. ...
4. Release Idle Elastic IP Addresses. ...
5. Automate Infrastructure Rightsizing during Provisioning. ...
6. Identify & Maximize Software Licensing Spend.
14. Can you explain how to integrate Azure Active Directory with on-
premises Active Directory?
Microsoft Entra Connect integrates your on-premises directories with

Microsoft Entra ID. Extend your existing on-premises Active Directory
infrastructure to Azure, by deploying a VM in Azure that runs AD DS as
a Domain Controller.
15. Can you explain how to implement Azure Policy and Azure Role-
Based Access Control?
Azure Policy is based on how scope works in Azure Resource

Manager. RBAC grants access to users or groups within a subscription
whereas policy is defined within the resource group or subscription.
RBAC focuses on what resources the users can access and the policy is
focused on the properties of resources.
