An on-premise application includes an application tier and a business tier.
The tiers are currently hosted on separate servers.
Each server has 4 CPU cores and 6 GB of memory.
You have the following requirements:

– Ensure that the business tier can be updated without affecting the application tier.
– Use the minimum role instance size that meets or exceeds the current server specifications.

You need to recommend a topology for hosting the application in Windows Azure.
