Explanation:
Active geo-replication is an Azure SQL Database feature that allows you to create readable secondary databases of individual databases on a server in the same or different data center (region).
Incorrect Answers:
C: Availability Zones are unique physical locations within a region. Each zone is made up of one or more datacenters equipped with independent power, cooling, and networking.

Explanation:
Instead restore Database1 from Server1 to the Server2 by using the RESTORE Transact-SQL command and the REPLACE option.
Note: REPLACE should be used rarely and only after careful consideration. Restore normally prevents accidentally overwriting a database with a different database. If the database specified in a RESTORE statement already exists on the current server and the specified database family GUID differs from the database family GUID recorded in the backup set, the database is not restored. This is an important safeguard.

Scenario: SalesSQLDb1 uses database firewall rules and contained database users.
Topic 2, Contoso Ltd
Existing Environment
Contoso, Ltd. is a financial data company that has 100 employees. The company delivers financial data to customers.
Active Directory
Contoso has a hybrid Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) deployment that syncs to on-premises Active Directory.
Database Environment
Contoso has SQL Server 2017 on Azure virtual machines shown in the following table.

SQL1 and SQL2 are in an Always On availability group and are actively queried. SQL3 runs jobs, provides historical data, and handles the delivery of data to customers.
The on-premises datacenter contains a PostgreSQL server that has a 50-TB database.
Current Business Model
Contoso uses Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) to create flat files for customers. The customers receive the files by using FTP.
Requirements
Planned Changes
Contoso plans to move to a model in which they deliver data to customer databases that run as platform as a service (PaaS) offerings. When a customer establishes a service agreement with Contoso, a separate resource group that contains an Azure SQL database will be provisioned for the customer. The database will have a complete copy of the financial data. The data to which each customer will have access will depend on the service agreement tier. The customers can change tiers by changing their service agreement.
The estimated size of each PaaS database is 1 TB.
Contoso plans to implement the following changes:



Business Goals
Contoso identifies the following business requirements:







Technical Requirements
Contoso identifies the following technical requirements:




Monitoring Requirements
Contoso identifies the following monitoring requirements:




PaaS Prototype
During prototyping of the PaaS solution in Azure, you record the compute utilization of a customer's Azure SQL database as shown in the following exhibit.

Role Assignments
For each customer's Azure SQL Database server, you plan to assign the roles shown in the following exhibit.

The performance capacity of a query is determined by the user's resource class.
Smaller resource classes reduce the maximum memory per query, but increase concurrency.
Larger resource classes increase the maximum memory per query, but reduce concurrency.

Explanation:
BACKUP DATABASE supports only copy-only full backups of databases, files, or filegroups when it's executed
on secondary replicas. Copy-only backups don't impact the log chain or clear the differential bitmap.
Incorrect Answers:
A: Differential backups are not supported on secondary replicas. The software displays this error because the
secondary replicas support copy-only database backups.
