AZ-104: Microsoft Azure Administrator Full Course - Blob Storage Pricing

The video tutorial explains Azure's pricing model for storage accounts, emphasizing the importance of understanding costs associated with data storage, transaction, and data transfer. It covers the impact of storage tiers on pricing, where cooler tiers have lower storage costs but higher access charges. Geo replication and outbound data transfer costs are also discussed, highlighting the financial implications of data movement across regions and tier changes.

What should be a primary consideration when designing storage solutions in Azure?

• The color of the storage interface

• The pricing model

• The number of users

• The type of operating system

How does the cost per GB change as the storage tier gets cooler?

• It doubles

• It decreases

• It remains the same

• It increases

Which factor is crucial for mission-critical applications in terms of storage performance?

• Maximum storage capacity

• Least latency and good throughput

• Low throughput

• High latency

What additional cost is incurred when geo-replication is configured?

• A flat monthly fee

• A per transaction charge

• A per GB data access charge

• A per Gigabit data transfer charge

What happens when you change the storage tier from hot to cool?

• A charge based on the number of users

• A charge equal to writing all data

• A charge equal to reading all data

• No additional charge
