A company is using the Consumption tier of Azure API Management for a public API. They are experiencing cold start latency and want to reduce it. They are considering moving to a dedicated tier. Which factor should they consider when deciding?

The Consumption tier scales to zero, causing cold starts, while a dedicated tier maintains warm instances.

The Consumption tier does not support custom domains, so they must use a dedicated tier.

The Consumption tier does not support virtual network integration, which may be required for security.

The Consumption tier has a maximum request size of 1 MB, which may be too small for their API.

In Azure API Management, what is the primary purpose of a policy?

To configure the network routing between the API Management instance and the backend

To change the behavior of an API by applying rules at the inbound, outbound, or on-error stages

To manage the lifecycle of API versions

To define the data model for an API's request and response

A company has an API that is documented in the developer portal. They want to add a new policy that modifies the response body. They want to test the policy without affecting the production API. What should they do?

Create a new API revision and apply the policy to the revision, then test it.

Use the test console in the developer portal to test the policy before applying it to the production API.

Apply the policy to the production API and monitor the results.

Use the Azure portal's policy editor to test the policy in a simulated environment.

A company has an API that is used by multiple internal teams. They want to track usage per team and enforce different rate limits for each team. They are using Azure API Management. What should they do?

Create a single product and use a quota policy with a different quota for each team.

Create a single product and use a rate-limit-by-key policy with the team ID as the key.

Create a separate product for each team and add the API to each product, then assign each team to their respective product.

Create a separate API Management instance for each team.

A developer wants to add a new API to Azure API Management. The API is defined in an OpenAPI specification file that is stored in a GitHub repository. The developer wants to import the API and ensure that the documentation is automatically updated whenever the specification changes. What should they do?

Use the API Management DevOps toolkit to automate the import and update process.

Manually import the OpenAPI file into API Management and update it whenever changes are made.

Create an API in API Management and link it to the GitHub repository using the 'Continuous integration' feature.

Use the Azure CLI to import the OpenAPI file and schedule a job to re-import it daily.
