Sample question

You are designing a mission-critical web application that requires a globally distributed database with single-digit millisecond read and write latency and a 99.999% availability SLA. Which Azure service should you recommend?

A. Azure SQL Database in a single region
B. Azure Cosmos DB configured with multi-region writes
C. Azure Database for PostgreSQL Flexible Server
D. Azure Table Storage

Show answer

Correct answer: B — Azure Cosmos DB with multi-region writes. Azure Cosmos DB is a globally distributed, multi-model database that delivers single-digit millisecond latency and offers a 99.999% availability SLA when configured with multi-region writes. Azure SQL Database in a single region cannot meet the global distribution or five-nines requirement on its own; PostgreSQL Flexible Server and Table Storage do not provide turnkey multi-region write capabilities with these guarantees.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions are in the AZ-305 exam?

The AZ-305 exam contains approximately 40–60 questions, including multiple-choice, scenario-based, and case study items, and must be completed within 100 minutes.

Is AZ-305 hard?

AZ-305 is an expert-level exam focused on solution design rather than hands-on administration. It expects advanced knowledge of Azure identity, networking, storage, and business continuity. Most candidates prepare for 8–12 weeks and pass AZ-104 first.

What are the prerequisites for AZ-305?

Microsoft recommends advanced experience with Azure administration, development, and DevOps. Passing AZ-104 (Azure Administrator) first is strongly recommended, as AZ-305 builds on that foundation to earn the Azure Solutions Architect Expert certification.

Are these real AZ-305 exam questions?

These are practice-style questions, not leaked exam content. They follow the same format and domain coverage as the real AZ-305 exam to give you the most effective preparation.
