Common Mistakes

Choosing Hot for infrequent data.

Confusing Cool with Archive.

The Cool tier is optimized for data that is infrequently accessed but requires lower latency than Archive.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using non-existent tiers like 'Freeze' or 'Deep'.

Confusing Archive with Cool or Cold.

The Archive tier is for long-term storage of rarely accessed data with flexible latency requirements.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to create a storage account with the Cool tier and enable blob soft delete.

Azure

storage_account = azure.storage.Account(access_tier='[1]', blob_soft_delete=[2])

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Setting soft delete to False when protection is needed.

Choosing Hot instead of Cool for the tier.

The Cool tier is for infrequently accessed data, and enabling blob soft delete helps protect against accidental deletions.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to set a blob's tier to Hot, enable versioning, and set access tier change to immediate.

Azure

blob_client.set_tier(tier='[1]', versioning=[2], rehydrate_priority='[3]')

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

BTrue

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using Cool tier for frequent access.

Disabling versioning.

Using incorrect rehydrate priority values.

Hot tier is for frequent access, versioning keeps blob versions, and 'Standard' priority means immediate access tier change.
