Exam AZ-900 topic 1 question 42 discussion

given answer: Azure App Service is a PaaS (Platform as a Service) service. However, Azure virtual machines are an IaaS (Infrastructure as a Service) service. Therefore, this solution does not meet the goal. PaaS contains all services of IaaS plus additional Services. So, what do you say Over solution is Yes, That is App Service and Virtual Machine together is PaaS even if VM is in IaaS. Please some one shed some light on this.

It should be NO. VM itself a IAAS service.

Basically a Virtual Machine is IAAS so, you cannot use it as Paas

Azure App Service is a PaaS solution that allows you to host web applications without managing the underlying infrastructure. ✅ Azure Virtual Machines (VMs) with SQL Server is an Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) solution, not PaaS ❌. Since the company's migration plan requires only PaaS solutions, and the provided solution includes IaaS (Azure VM with SQL Server), this does not meet the goal.

NO This question relies on the fact that the services chosen are both PaaS. In this case VM is IaaS so the solution doesn't meet the goal

Answer is No

Azure virtual machine is an IaaS

A criação de máquinas virtuais do Azure com o Microsoft SQL Server instalado se enquadra na categoria de Infraestrutura como Serviço (IaaS), não em Plataforma como Serviço (PaaS)12. Para atender ao plano de migração da empresa que especifica o uso de soluções PaaS, você deve utilizar serviços como o Azure App Service para aplicativos web e Azure SQL Database para bancos de dados SQL

Answer is No. Creating VM not involved in PAAS

No.,B is correct

VM is not the responsibility of a PAAS user

Azure virtual machines = IAAS, so answer is B

The company's migration plan requires that only Platform as a Service (PaaS) solutions must be used in Azure. Azure App Service is a PaaS solution, which is suitable for hosting web apps, RESTful APIs, and mobile backends. However, Azure virtual machines (VMs) with Microsoft SQL Server installed are considered Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), not PaaS. VMs provide infrastructure-level resources rather than platform-level services. To meet the goal of using only PaaS solutions, you should use Azure SQL Database instead of deploying SQL Server on virtual machines. Azure SQL Database is a fully managed PaaS database engine that handles most of the database management functions, such as upgrading, patching, backups, and monitoring without user involvement. Therefore, the solution should be: Azure App Service for hosting web applications. Azure SQL Database for database services. This ensures that the environment consists entirely of PaaS solutions, in line with the company's migration plan.

Answer is NO: SQL Server on Azure VMs falls into the industry category Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) and allows you to run SQL Server inside a fully managed virtual machine (VM) in Azure. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-sql/azure-sql-iaas-vs-paas-what-is-overview?view=azuresql

1. Azure Disk Storge is IaaS and Azure Blob Storage is PaaS. So it has not mention properly which service the developer used so the answer is no 2. VM = IaaS where App Service I remember as something like Docker which is a PlatformNo would be the correct answer here because of the VM.

Obsoletely A, Virtual Machine is an example of IaaS

Ans is B since VM is IAAS not PAAS
