It is fast and cost-effective to process a massive amount of data using with the help of open-source frameworks like Spark, Hadoop, Hive, Storm and R. HDInsight offers various type of scenarios which includes ETL, data warehousing, and Machine Learning.
Question - 22 : - Explain role instance in Microsoft Azure
Answer - 22 : -
A role instance is a virtual instance on which the application code and role configuration run. A role can have multiple instances, which are defined in the service configuration file.
Question - 23 : - Explain the term ‘service fabric’ in Azure
Answer - 23 : -
Service fabric is a middleware platform which gives more scalable outcome. It mostly renders with a more managed and reliable enterprise.
Question - 24 : - Explain Availability Set
Answer - 24 : -
It is a logical grouping of Virtual Machines. It allows the Azure cloud to build understand how the application for a user is built to provide availability and redundancy.
Question - 25 : - What is Azure Diagnostics?
Answer - 25 : -
Azure Diagnostics is the API that enables you to collect diagnostic data from applications running in Azure. Azure Diagnostics must be enabled for cloud service roles in order for verbose monitoring to be turned on.
Question - 26 : - What is Azure Service Level Agreement (SLA)?
Answer - 26 : -
The Azure Compute SLA guarantees that, when you deploy two or more role instances for every role, access to your cloud service will be maintained at least 99.95 percent of the time. Also, detection and corrective action will be initiated 99.9 percent of the time when a role instance’s process is not running.
Question - 27 : - What is Cloud Computing?
Answer - 27 : -
Cloud computing is the use of computing resources (hardware and software) that are delivered as a service over a network (typically the Internet).
Question - 28 : - Explain traffic manager benefits in Azure?
Answer - 28 : -

Question - 29 : - What is Azure Active Directory and how it is used?
Answer - 29 : -
Microsoft offers Azure active directory(Azure AD), a fully managed multi-tenant service that implements identity and access capabilities for applications running in Azure as well as applications operating in the on-premises environment. It is used for providing single sign-on and multi-factor authentication to help users from protecting attacks.
Question - 30 : - What is an Availability Set?
Answer - 30 : -
Availability Set is a logical grouping capability majorly employed for separating VM sources from each other when they are deployed. They are used for building reliable cloud solutions.
The VMs placed in the Availability set are run across various physical servers, storage units, compute racks, and network switches in Azure. If any failure occurs, only VMs subset is affected, and the overall solution stays operational.
