Correct Answer
Use an Azure Function with an Event Grid trigger, subscribing to BlobCreated events from the storage account
Why This Answer Is Correct
Azure Event Grid with a BlobCreated event subscription provides near real-time (sub-second) push-based triggering. The Event Grid-based Blob trigger in Azure Functions replaces the older polling-based Blob trigger, offering significantly lower latency and better scalability for storage events.
This question evaluates your knowledge of Azure Event Grid — a core concept tested in Microsoft Certified: Azure Developer Associate (AZ-204). Understanding Azure Event Grid is essential for designing scalable, secure, and cost-effective cloud architectures. Mastery of this topic will help you answer scenario-based questions confidently on exam day.
Your Event Grid subscription is receiving events but your Azure Function endpoint is failing to process them. Event Grid keeps retrying. You need to preserve undelivered events for up to 24 hours so they can be reprocessed after the bug is fixed. What should you configure?
You are building a system where multiple services need to react when a new image is uploaded to Azure Blob Storage. For example, a thumbnail service, a virus scanner, and an audit logger all need to be triggered by the same upload event. Which Azure messaging service is best suited for this fan-out event distribution pattern?
