You manage a cloud service that is running in two small instances. The cloud service hosts a help desk
application. The application utilizes a virtual network connection to synchronize data to the company’s
internal accounting system.
You need to reduce the amount of time required for data synchronization.
What should you do?
A.
Configure the servers as large instances and re-deploy.
B.
Increase the instance count to three.
C.
Deploy the application to Azure Web Sites.
D.
Increase the processors allocated to the instances.
Explanation:
Note: When you create your service model, you can specify the size to which to deploy an instance of
your role, depending on its resource requirements. The size of the role determines the number of CPU
cores, the memory capacity, and the local file system size that is allocated to a running instance.Virtual Machine and Cloud Service Sizes for Azure

The cloud is a highly scalable environment, and you can start new instances of a service to meet demand as the volume of requests increases. However, the more instances of a service you run, the more resources they occupy; and the costs associated with running your system rise accordingly. Therefore it makes economic sense to scale back the number of service instances and resources as demand for your system decreases.
The small instance has one NIC, the large 2. For the synchronise you need the NICS. So A
The increased size gives an increase in Max NICs and Network bandwidth:

So the correct answer is A.
