Microsoft Azure Administrator Associate AZ-104 Practice Question
You are administering an Azure storage account used by several applications in your organization. For security compliance, you are required to regularly regenerate the access keys for the storage account. How can you ensure that the applications experience minimal downtime during the key regeneration process?
Delete and recreate the storage account to get new access keys.
Regenerate both access keys simultaneously to ensure security compliance.
Pause the applications, regenerate the access keys, and then restart the applications.
Regenerate one of the access keys, and update the applications to use the regenerated key before regenerating the second key.
To minimize downtime, you should regenerate one of the access keys, update the applications to use the regenerated key, and then regenerate the second key. This method ensures that at any given time, one valid key is available for the applications to use, preventing service interruption. Regenerating both keys simultaneously would invalidate both keys, causing the applications to lose access immediately. Deleting and recreating the storage account is unnecessary and could result in data loss. Pausing the applications leads to downtime, which the goal is to avoid.
