You need to identify the type of failure for which an Azure Availability Zone can be used to protect access to Azure services.

An Azure Availability Zone is designed to protect applications and data from datacenter failures within an Azure region. Each Availability Zone is a unique physical location within the same region, with independent power, cooling, and networking. Therefore, if one datacenter experiences a failure, the replicated data and applications in another Availability Zone will ensure continuity and high availability.
It seems that in these questions designed by Microsoft it always follows this thinking pattern: Regions > Zones > Data Centre. When you see a question like this with the keyword Zone AUTOMATICALLY you think protecting or managing data centers!
Thank you for clear explanation.
Very good explanation
You can even add Availability Set for VMs Regions > Zones > Datacenters > Availbility Sets (Rack)
No puede estar mejor explicado.
Availability Zones is a high-availability offering that protects your applications and data from datacenter failures. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/availability-zones/az-overview
D is correct, but using Availability Zone will protect from a physical server failure or a storage failure too - as It's replicating itself into different availability zones. So, It's A, C, D in my opinion.
This question was on exam
think in availability zone like a phisical data center in Azure. Each Region may have from one to three AZ. Pay attetion, MAY have, some times just one AZ per Region.
This showed up today. Had 36 questions and scored an 857, and the community and questions here were all covered on the test!
I find this question a bit confusing, given that Microsoft themselves state that there may be multiple availability zones within the same datacenter. For this question, Data Center and availability zone may be used interchangeably, then it makes sense to say its D
D. an Azure data center failure
D is correct here.
Option D
Zone = Data Center. So the answered is correct
Nope, in some specific Zones, we could have 1 or more Data Centers. See Availability Zones section on : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C- nNw1mGwzE&ab_channel=AdamMarczak-AzureforEveryone
D is correct
Region > Zones > Datacenter > server > storage so, the only thing which will lead us to change from Zone to another Zone is a failure in Datacenter, "logic thinking" :)
D. an Azure data center failure
It is right
I agree. The correct answer is D - an Azure data center failure. Azure Availability Zones are designed to protect applications and data from datacenter failures within an Azure region. Each Availability Zone is a unique physical location within an Azure region, and they are designed to ensure high availability by being isolated from each other to prevent single points of failure.
I agree with the answer.
