A worked example
Shown solved, with the whole explanation open: this is what every question here carries.
A company's registry is Standard tier. A new design needs images replicated to a second region and pulls only over a private endpoint. Which required capabilities are Premium-only? (Choose two.)
Correct.
Checked against learn.microsoft.com, September 2026Concept
Registry pricing plans share one data plane and API surface; what separates them is included storage, throughput, and a set of network and availability features reserved for the top plan. Multi-region serving and restricting pulls to a virtual network sit in that reserved set, while authentication and lifecycle basics are in every plan.
Why A and C
Microsoft's tier page states that Premium adds geo-replication for managing a single registry across multiple regions and private link with private endpoints to restrict access, so both requirements force the Premium plan.

Microsoft Learn: Azure Container Registry service tiers, checked September 2026In addition to higher image throughput, Premium adds features such as geo-replication for high availability through managing a single registry across multiple regions, private link with private endpoints to restrict access to the registry, and higher API concurrency and bandwidth throughput for large-scale concurrent deployments.
Now you: practice questions
No account needed. The explanation opens when you answer.
Sample question 1 of 3
An administrator tries to switch a Premium container registry replicating to two regions down to the Standard plan. The portal refuses. What must be done before the switch succeeds?
Sample question 2 of 3
An engineer deploys a container group in Azure Container Instances with a Windows web container and a Windows log-forwarding sidecar. The deployment is rejected. What explains the rejection?
Sample question 3 of 3
Your Linux container group has a web container on port 80 and an API container on 5000. Only port 80 is public. How does the web container reach the API?
