Exam DP-201 topic 1 question 16 discussion

Actual exam question from Microsoft's DP-201

Question #: 16
Topic #: 1

You are designing an application. You plan to use Azure SQL Database to support the application.
The application will extract data from the Azure SQL Database and create text documents. The text documents will be placed into a cloud-based storage solution.
The text storage solution must be accessible from an SMB network share.
You need to recommend a data storage solution for the text documents.
Which Azure data storage type should you recommend?

A. Queue
B. Files
C. Blob
D. Table

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B 🗳️
Azure Files enables you to set up highly available network file shares that can be accessed by using the standard Server Message Block (SMB) protocol.
Incorrect Answers:
A: The Azure Queue service is used to store and retrieve messages. It is generally used to store lists of messages to be processed asynchronously.
C: Blob storage is optimized for storing massive amounts of unstructured data, such as text or binary data. Blob storage can be accessed via HTTP or HTTPS but not via SMB.
D: Azure Table storage is used to store large amounts of structured data. Azure tables are ideal for storing structured, non-relational data.
