Question 1
A company intends to launch a web application that will use Azure Web App service. The service should have an auto-scale feature that will adjust the application's capacity based on demand while keeping costs to a minimum.
After careful consideration, you have decided to assign the Azure Web App to a Basic App Service Plan.
Does this solution meet the requirements?

A
Yes

B
No
Reveal correct answer
Correct answer: B
A. Assigning the Azure Web App to a Basic App Service Plan may not meet the requirements of having an auto-scale feature that adjusts the application's capacity based on demand. The Basic App Service Plan does not offer auto-scaling capabilities, which means the application's capacity will not automatically adjust based on demand. This could result in either underutilization or overutilization of resources, leading to potential cost inefficiencies.
B. The correct choice is No because assigning the Azure Web App to a Basic App Service Plan does not provide the auto-scale feature required to adjust the application's capacity based on demand. To meet the requirements, the Azure Web App should be assigned to a higher-tier App Service Plan, such as Standard or Premium, which offer auto-scaling capabilities to optimize resource usage and costs based on demand.
