should be the last one: “is a distinct separate instance of Microsoft Azure” Microsoft Azure operated by 21Vianet (Azure China) is a physically separated instance of cloud services located in China.

it should be D) is a distinct separate instance of Microsoft Azure. As per MS documents:" Microsoft document says that Azure China has a feature parity gap, but the gap is narrowing" plus "Microsoft Azure operated by 21Vianet (Azure China) is a physically separated instance of cloud services located in China. It's independently operated and transacted by Shanghai Blue Cloud Technology Co., Ltd. ("21Vianet"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Beijing 21Vianet Broadband Data Center Co., Ltd.." So D makes more sense to me.

Answer is D clearly.

Answer is D "Feature parity" means "same feature". Azure China is a version of Microsoft Azure that is operated by 21Vianet, a Chinese internet service provider. It is separate from the global version of Azure and is subject to Chinese laws and regulations. While Azure China and Azure global share many common features, there are some differences in the services and features that are offered. For example, Azure China offers a subset of the services that are available in Azure global. Some services that are available in Azure global may not be available in Azure China, or may have different capabilities or limitations. In addition, Azure China may have different pricing, billing, and support options compared to Azure global.
