Option C is Incorrect: Presently you can not buy domains in Azure DNS, you need to purchase the domains from third-party domain providers (like GoDaddy). Option D is Incorrect: Azure DNS also supports Private DNS Zones which helps in name resolution within your associated virtual networks. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/dns/dns-overview
