AI-103 Practice Question 33: Basic Versus Standard Setup
Microsoft Azure AI Apps and Agents Developer Associate (AI-103) · Test 4 · question 3 of 10
A bank is choosing an environment configuration for Foundry Agent Service. Its data-governance policy is short and non-negotiable: every file an agent ingests, every conversation thread, and every vector store must live at rest in the bank's own Azure subscription, encrypted with a customer-managed key. Private networking is not required in this phase.
Which setup should they deploy?
Show answer and explanation
Answer:
Standard setup is defined by exactly this requirement: it gives "fine-grained control over your data by allowing you to use your own Azure resources. All customer data (including files, threads, and vector stores) are stored in your own Azure resources." The three bring-your-own resources are Azure Storage, Azure AI Search and Azure Cosmos DB, and the comparison table lists customer-managed key support as available on standard setup only.
- A is wrong because basic setup manages agent state in the platform's built-in, Microsoft-managed storage, the opposite of the policy. - B is wrong because CMK support is a standard-setup capability in Microsoft's comparison table; it is not an option you can switch on over basic setup's managed storage. - D is wrong not because it fails the policy, it includes everything standard setup offers, but because the virtual network is for secured outbound communication, which the bank has explicitly deferred. It buys network isolation the phase doesn't need and adds subnet delegation and DNS work to the deployment.
