I agree that D and E are probably the correct answers, but in practice you wouldn't use ADF to copy files unless you need to do some transformation of those files.

Incorrect Answers: A. an integration account Use integration accounts for business-to-business (B2B) solutions and seamless communication between organizations. B. an On-premises data gateway The on-premises data gateway acts as a bridge to provide quick and secure data transfer between on-premises data (data that isn't in the cloud) and several Microsoft cloud services. These cloud services include Power BI, PowerApps, Power Automate, Azure Analysis Services, and Azure Logic Apps. C. an Azure Batch account Use Azure Batch to run large-scale parallel and high-performance computing (HPC) batch jobs efficiently in Azure. It is not used for data transfer/copy. D and E are correct

Further to syu31svc, answers are correct. Link to validate ADF, I questioned it as well as it is known for data transformation: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/data-factory/introduction#connect-and-collect With Data Factory, you can use the Copy Activity in a data pipeline to move data from both on-premises and cloud source data stores to a centralization data store in the cloud for further analysis. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/data-factory/copy-activity-overview n Azure Data Factory and Synapse pipelines, you can use the Copy activity to copy data among data stores located on-premises and in the cloud.

While DE technically can achieve the goal, I think in real life you would just use Azure Backup or Azure Databox or maybe just AzCopy

i think the first option is B than D. The reason is connnector to transfer data at onprem. Voume of data is not huge (less than 1 TB).
