A. B.

A

Azure StorSimple replicates to Azure Blob storage.

The proposed solution of including Azure Blob storage to provide on-premises storage with built-in replication to Azure is not correct. Azure Blob storage is a cloud-based object storage solution provided by Microsoft Azure. It is designed to store large amounts of unstructured data, such as text or binary data.

Although Azure Blob storage provides data redundancy and replication within the Azure cloud infrastructure, it cannot replicate on-premises data to Azure or provide built-in replication for on-premises storage. Therefore, this solution does not meet the goal of providing on-premises storage with built-in replication to Azure.

A more appropriate solution would be to use Azure Site Recovery or Azure Backup. Azure Site Recovery provides disaster recovery for on-premises applications by replicating them to Azure. It can also be used to replicate on-premises storage to Azure. Azure Backup provides backup and recovery services for on-premises data and applications, and it can also be used to replicate data to Azure for additional redundancy.

In summary, the proposed solution of using Azure Blob storage to provide on-premises storage with built-in replication to Azure is not correct, and the correct solution would be to use Azure Site Recovery or Azure Backup. Therefore, the answer is B. No.
