– You administer an Azure Web Site named contoso. The development team has implemented changes to the website that need to be validated.
– You need to validate and deploy the changes with minimum downtime to users. What should you do first?
Options:
A. Create a new Linked Resource.
B. Configure Remote Debugging on contoso.
C. Create a new website named contosoStaging.
D. Create a deployment slot named contosoStaging.
E. Back up the contoso website to a deployment slot.
Answer: D Explanation:
The deployment slots feature for Azure Websites allows validating a version of your site with full content and configuration updates on the target platform before directing customer traffic to this version. The expectation is that a deployment slot would be fully configured in the desired target format before performing a swap.
