I'm feeling a little cosmic about this one. Since the backups are for a Cosmos DB account, I'm going to go with B) 12. Why? Because the universe works in mysterious ways, my friend.

I'm going with D) 48. I'm not sure about the cosmic connection, but that's my guess.

I'm going to have to agree with Zona on this one. D) 48 is the way to go. Though I must say, the Azure Cosmos DB team really loves their backups, don't they?

upvoted 0 times

Yes, you're right. The retention period and interval definitely play a big role in determining the number of copies. Azure Cosmos DB team must really value data protection with these backup configurations.

I think D) 48 is correct. The retention period is 4 days, so that would be 24 hours x 4 days = 96 hours. And since the interval is 2 hours, that would be 96 hours / 2 hours = 48 copies.

Okay, let's break this down. 2 hour interval for 4 days means we have 48 backups. I guess the only one that doesn't incur additional charges is the current one, so the answer must be D) 48.

Wow, this is a tricky one. I'm going to go with C) 46 because that seems like a reasonable number of backups that would incur additional charges.

But if the interval is 2 hours and retention period is 4 days, then there will be 12 copies in 4 days, so the answer should be B) 12.

Hmm, let's see. 2 hour interval for 4 days means 48 backups. But I think the question is asking about additional charges, so the answer must be D) 48.
