Question

Drag and Drop Question Arrange the storage account redundancy options from the least redundant to the most redundant. To answer, move all options from the list of options to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order. Answer:

Exhibit

Answer Area

Drag items

Zone-redundant storage (ZRS)Geo-redundant storage (GRS)Locally-redundant storage (LRS)

Correct arrangement

Locally-redundant storage (LRS)
Zone-redundant storage (ZRS)
Geo-redundant storage (GRS)

Explanation

The correct order from least to most redundant is LRS → ZRS → GRS. Locally-redundant storage (LRS) replicates data 3 times within a single datacenter in one region, making it the least resilient. Zone-redundant storage (ZRS) replicates data across 3 availability zones within a region, protecting against datacenter-level failures. Geo-redundant storage (GRS) replicates data to a secondary geographic region hundreds of miles away, providing the highest level of protection against regional disasters.
