Contoso Ltd is planning to deploy a new web application that requires high availability and performance. The company has decided to use Availability Zones for redundancy. Which of the following actions should you take to ensure the web application is deployed across different zones for maximum availability?

Answer Options

A
Deploy the web application in a single Availability Zone within the same region.
B
Deploy the web application in multiple Availability Zones within the same region.
C
Deploy the web application in a single region but across multiple availability sets.
D
Deploy the web application in a single region with no consideration for Availability Zones.

Correct Answer

B: Deploy the web application in multiple Availability Zones within the same region.

Explanation

Deploying the web application across different Availability Zones ensures that the application can continue to operate even if one zone experiences an outage. Option B is correct because it involves deploying resources in multiple zones, which provides fault tolerance and high availability. Option A is incorrect as it does not address the need for cross-zone deployment. Option C is incorrect as it focuses on single-zone deployment, which does not provide the same level of availability. Option D is incorrect as it suggests using a single region without considering Availability Zones, which does not offer the same level of fault tolerance.
