Question

You have an Azure Storage account named storage1 that is configured with locally redundant storage (LRS) and contains the following resources:

  • container1: Container
  • share1: File share
  • share2: File share
  • queue1: Queue

You need to add private endpoints for all the storage1 resources.
What is the minimum number of private endpoints that you should add?

A. 1
B. 2
C. 3
D. 4

Answer

C. 3

Explanation

A private endpoint is a network interface that uses a private IP address from a virtual network. This network interface connects privately and securely to a service that is powered by using Azure Private Link.
When creating a private endpoint or a storage account, you have the following target subresources available: Blob, table, queue, file, web, and dfs. The subresource for cont1 is blob, for share1 and share2 the subresource is file, and for queue1 the subresource is queue. The subresources allow access to only the resource of their respective type, and one private endpoint allows access to all the resources of the selected type. Because storage1 stores resources of three types (blob, file, and queue), you must create at least three private endpoints.
