Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Publish administrative API keys publicly in GitHub repositories for easy developer access.
Why it's wrong here
Publishing keys publicly compromises security.
- ✓
Configure Azure Monitor diagnostic settings to stream query performance and error logs to a Log Analytics workspace.
Why this is correct
Diagnostic logging provides visibility into query latency, errors, and performance bottlenecks.
- ✓
Use managed identities for secure authentication between Azure AI Search and Azure OpenAI without hardcoded keys.
Why this is correct
Managed identities eliminate static credentials and secure service-to-service calls.
- ✗
Use the Free pricing tier for high-throughput production workloads.
Why it's wrong here
Free tiers lack the capacity, scaling, and SLA required for production workloads.
- ✓
Deploy Private Endpoints for both Azure AI Search and Azure OpenAI to keep data traffic within internal virtual networks.
Why this is correct
Private endpoints prevent exposure of search and OpenAI endpoints to the public internet.
