You are chairing a team meeting where you need to talk about the Ephemeral OS Disks with your team members.
Which of the following statement(s) can you use to rightly describe the Ephemeral OS Disks? (Select all that are applicable)
Click on the arrows to vote for the correct answer
A. B. C. D. E.Correct Answer: A and D
Ephemeral OS disks are the disks that are built on the local VM (Virtual Machine) storage.
These disks help you in getting lower write/read latency to the disk and quicker VM reimage.
The main characteristics of Ephemeral OS disks are: Good for stateless apps.
Supported by custom images, Marketplace, and Shared Image Gallery.
Allows faster resetting or reimaging VMs and scaling set instances to actual boot state.
Lower read/write latency.
Availability in all Azure regions.
Option A is correct.
Ephemeral disks are the disks that are built on the local VM(Virtual Machine) storage.
Option B is incorrect.
Ephemeral disks are considered good for stateless applications.
Option C is incorrect.
Ephemeral disk results in lower write/read latency.
Option D is correct.
One of the key features of Ephemeral disks is their availability in all Azure regions.
Option E is incorrect.
All of the given statements are false, only options A and D are correct.
Sure, I'd be happy to provide a detailed explanation of the Ephemeral OS disks in Azure.
Ephemeral OS disks are a new type of OS disk that are built on the local VM (Virtual Machine) storage in Azure. These disks are temporary and are not meant for persistent storage. They are used for temporary storage, such as page files, swap files, and temporary application data. Ephemeral OS disks are different from regular OS disks, which are persistent and can be used for storing data even after the VM is stopped or deleted.
Now, let's take a look at the statements mentioned in the question:
A. Ephemeral OS disks are the disks that are built on the local VM(Virtual Machine) storage This statement is true. As mentioned earlier, ephemeral OS disks are built on the local VM storage and are meant for temporary storage.
B. Ephemeral disks are not good for stateless apps. This statement is not necessarily true. Ephemeral OS disks can be used for stateless apps as they are designed for temporary storage. However, they may not be suitable for all types of stateless apps, depending on their specific requirements.
C. Ephemeral OS disk results in having higher write/read latency to the disk This statement is also true. Ephemeral OS disks may have higher write/read latency as they are built on the local VM storage, which may not be as fast as other types of storage.
D. Ephemeral disks are available in all Azure regions This statement is not true. Ephemeral OS disks are only available in certain Azure regions, and not all regions support this feature. You should consult the official Azure documentation to see which regions support ephemeral OS disks.
E. All the above. This statement is not entirely true, as statement D is incorrect. Therefore, the correct answer to the question would be A and C, as these statements are true and accurately describe ephemeral OS disks in Azure.
I hope this explanation helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
