How to study it

  • Draw the hierarchy once: management groups contain subscriptions, subscriptions contain resource groups, resource groups contain resources
  • Learn the redundancy letters: L = one datacenter, Z = across zones, G = a second region
  • ExpressRoute is a private connection that does not go over the public internet; VPN Gateway sends encrypted traffic over it

Common questions

How many copies does locally redundant storage keep?

Three copies within a single datacenter in the primary region. ZRS spreads three copies across availability zones, and GRS adds three more in a secondary region.

What is the difference between Microsoft Entra ID and Azure RBAC?

Microsoft Entra ID is the identity service that signs users in. Azure RBAC decides what a signed-in identity may do with Azure resources, by role and scope.
