You are designing an Azure web application that includes many static content files.
The application is accessed from locations all over the world by using a custom domain name.
You need to recommend an approach for providing access to the static content with the least
amount of latency.
Which two actions should you recommend? Each correct answer presents part of the solution.
A.
Place the static content in Azure Table storage.
B.
Configure a CNAME DNS record for the Azure Content Delivery Network (CDN) domain.
C.
Place the static content in Azure Blob storage.
D.
Configure a custom domain name that is an alias for the Azure Storage domain.
Explanation:
B: There are two ways to map your custom domain to a CDN endpoint.
1. Create a CNAME record with your domain registrar and map your custom domain and subdomain
to the CDN endpoint
2. Add an intermediate registration step with Azure cdnverify
C: The Azure Content Delivery Network (CDN) offers developers a global solution for delivering highbandwidth content by caching blobs and static content of compute instances at physical nodes in the
United States, Europe, Asia, Australia and South America.
The benefits of using CDN to cache Azure data include:
/ Better performance and user experience for end users who are far from a content source, and are
using applications where many ‘internet trips’ are required to load content
/ Large distributed scale to better handle instantaneous high load, say, at the start of an event such
as a product launchUsing CDN for Azure
