Correct Answer : 2
Explanation: On the Scale page of the Azure Management Portal, you can manually scale your application or you can set parameters to automatically scale it. You can scale
applications that are running Web Roles, Worker Roles, or Virtual Machines. To scale an application that is running instances of Web Roles or Worker Roles, you add or remove role
instances to accommodate the work load.

When you scale an application up or down that is running Virtual Machines, new machines are not created or deleted, but are turned on or turned off from an availability set of
previously created machines. You can specify scaling based on average percentage of CPU usage or based on the number of messages in a queue.

You should consider the following information before you configure scaling for your application:

You must add Virtual Machines that you create to an availability set to scale an application that uses them. The Virtual Machines that you add can be initially turned on or turned
off, but they will be turned on in a scale-up action and turned off in a scale-down action. For more information about Virtual Machines and availability sets, see Manage the
Availability of Virtual Machines.

Scaling is affected by core usage. Larger role instances or Virtual Machines use more cores. You can only scale an application within the limit of cores for your subscription. For
example, if your subscription has a limit of twenty cores and you run an application with two medium sized Virtual Machines (a total of four cores), you can only scale up other cloud
service deployments in your subscription by sixteen cores. All Virtual Machines in an availability set that are used in scaling an application must be the same size. For more
information about core usage and machine sizes, see Virtual Machine and Cloud Service Sizes for Azure.

You must create a queue and associate it with a role or availability set before you can scale an application based on a message threshold. For more information, see How to use the
Queue Storage Service.

You can scale resources that are linked to your cloud service. For more information about linking resources, see How to: Link a resource to a cloud service.

To enable high availability of your application, you should ensure that it is deployed with two or more role instances or Virtual Machines. For more information, see Service Level
Agreements.
