Azure AZ-900 Practice Exams

How the AZ-900 exam is structured

Azure Fundamentals (AZ-900) is a Microsoft certification with approximately 40 questions in 85 minutes. The table below shows the exam weighting published for each domain, so you can decide where to spend your study time instead of working through the syllabus in order.

Domain	Exam weight	What it covers
Azure Architecture and Services	37%	Describe Azure architecture components and services
Azure Management and Governance	35%	Describe Azure management and governance features
Cloud Concepts	28%	Describe cloud computing and Azure

A passing study plan usually trails the weighting: spend the most sessions on Azure Architecture and Services (37%), then check the next domain down before moving on. If your accuracy on a high-weight domain stays under 80%, more practice there is worth more than another pass at a low-weight topic.

Worked sample AZ-900 questions

These questions come from the Azure Fundamentals (AZ-900) practice bank. Read the rationale even when you answer correctly — the explanation is usually where the exam technique lives.

Sample question 1 — Cloud Concepts

A rural veterinary supplier replaces its order-entry server every four years, and each refresh consumes a full budget cycle plus weeks of procurement paperwork. The owners want order entry to run on Azure App Service so that replacing hardware stops being a recurring project. Which benefit of cloud computing does this change illustrate?

A. A shift from capital expenditure to operating expense based on consumption.
B. High availability, because the platform spreads the workload across facilities.
C. Elasticity, because capacity grows and shrinks with the number of orders received.
D. Governance, because the platform applies corporate rules to deployed resources.

Answer: A. Option A is correct because consumption-based services move spend from capital expenditure to recurring operating charges, so the supplier stops planning hardware refreshes. Option B is incorrect because high availability is about surviving localized faults rather than changing how hardware is funded. Option C is incorrect because elasticity matches capacity to order volume, which is a different benefit. Option D is incorrect because governance concerns enforcing organizational rules over resources.

Sample question 2 — Azure Architecture and Services

A wealth management firm keeps client statements in Azure Blob Storage, and its auditor has demanded that the data service must not be reachable from the public internet. The application runs on Azure virtual machines and must read those blobs without ever crossing a public route. Which feature should the engineers configure?

A. A service endpoint, because the subnet reaches the service over the Azure backbone.
B. A private endpoint, because the account gets an address inside the virtual network.
C. A network security group, because it blocks internet traffic destined for the subnet.
D. Azure Firewall, because it inspects every request that leaves the virtual network.

Answer: B. Option B is correct because a private endpoint places an address for the storage account inside a virtual network, so traffic never uses a public route. Option A is incorrect because a service endpoint keeps the service on its public address while limiting access. Option C is incorrect because a network security group filters traffic but does not give the service a private address. Option D is incorrect because a firewall inspects outbound traffic rather than extending the network to a service.

Sample question 3 — Azure Architecture and Services

A dental practice chain wants a booking website for its forty clinics and has a small team of two developers who write code but have no appetite for patching web servers or load balancers. The chain needs automatic scaling during weekday mornings, built-in certificates, and deployment slots for safe releases. Which Azure service should the developers choose?

A. Azure virtual machines, because the developers keep control of the web server.
B. Azure Functions, because each booking request runs code without a hosting plan.
C. Azure App Service, because it hosts web applications on a managed platform.
D. Azure Container Instances, because the site runs in a container without orchestration.

Answer: C. Option C is correct because Azure App Service hosts web applications on a managed platform that supplies scaling, certificates, and deployment slots without server maintenance. Option A is incorrect because virtual machines would put operating system updates back on the development team. Option B is incorrect because Azure Functions runs event-driven code rather than a continuous website. Option D is incorrect because Container Instances provides short-lived container execution without the features described.

How to use this AZ-900 practice set

What topics does the AZ-900 exam cover?

The AZ-900 exam is organised into 3 domains: Azure Architecture and Services (37%), Azure Management and Governance (35%), Cloud Concepts (28%). The weighting above shows how much of the exam each domain represents, so budget study time in the same proportion.

How long is the AZ-900 exam and how is it scored?

The AZ-900 exam has approximately 40 questions in 85 minutes, with a passing score of 700. Practice sets here are scored the same way as the real exam so you can see whether you are above or below the line before test day.

How should I start studying for Azure Fundamentals (AZ-900)?

Start with Azure Architecture and Services, the highest-weighted domain, then work down the list. Answer a mixed set after each domain pass — mixing domains forces you to identify what a question is asking before recalling the content, which is what the real exam does.

Are these the same questions that appear on the real AZ-900 exam?

No. These are original practice questions written against the published AZ-900 exam objectives. They mirror the style, difficulty, and domain weighting of the real exam, but the actual exam content is confidential and is not reproduced here.
