Exam AZ-400 topic 9 question 2 discussion

Actual exam question from Microsoft's AZ-400

Question #: 2
Topic #: 9

You have a project in Azure DevOps named Project1. Project1 contains a build pipeline named Pipe1 that builds an application named App1.

You have an agent pool named Pool1 that contains a Windows Server 2022-based self-hosted agent. Pipe1 uses Pool1.

You plan to implement another project named Project2. Project2 will have a build pipeline named Pipe2 that builds an application named App2.

App1 and App2 have conflicting dependencies.

You need to minimize the possibility that the two build pipelines will conflict with each other. The solution must minimize infrastructure costs.

What should you do?

A. Add another self-hosted agent.
B. Add a Docker Compose task to the build pipelines.
C. Change the self-hosted agent to use Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 9.
D. Create two container jobs.

Selected Answer: D

Creating two container jobs allow you to isolate the builds environments, then dependencies and configuration can be managed independently and minimizing infrastructure cost compared to add an additional server (as self-hosted agent or microsoft-hosted agent)

D is the answer. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/process/container-phases?view=azure-devops On Linux and Windows agents, jobs may be run on the host or in a container. (On macOS and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, container jobs are not available.) Containers provide isolation from the host and allow you to pin specific versions of tools and dependencies. Host jobs require less initial setup and infrastructure to maintain. Containers offer a lightweight abstraction over the host operating system. You can select the exact versions of operating systems, tools, and dependencies that your build requires. When you specify a container in your pipeline, the agent will first fetch and start the container. Then, each step of the job will run inside the container. You can't have nested containers. Containers aren't supported when an agent is already running inside a container.
