AI-103 Plan And Manage AN Azure AI Solution Practice Question
You are implementing a multi-region disaster recovery strategy for an Azure OpenAI deployment. If the primary region goes down, how should you configure traffic redirection to the secondary region using Azure Front Door?
Answer choices
Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Use priority routing with the primary region set to priority 1 and the secondary region set to priority 2.
Configuring a priority routing method in Azure Front Door enables automatic failover to the secondary region when the primary endpoint fails health probes.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Use geographic routing based on the client IP location.
Why it's wrong here
Geographic routing routes by user location rather than resource availability and failover status.
- ✗
Use weighted routing with a 50/50 split between regions.
Why it's wrong here
Weighted routing distributes traffic continuously, which is not suitable for an active-passive disaster recovery failover.
- ✓
Use priority routing with the primary region set to priority 1 and the secondary region set to priority 2.
Why this is correct
Priority routing ensures all traffic goes to the primary region unless health probes fail, failing over to priority 2.
- ✗
Use performance-based routing to the lowest latency node.
Why it's wrong here
Performance routing optimizes for latency, which might route traffic to an unhealthy or degraded primary endpoint if latency is technically lower.
