You are administrating an Azure environment for your company. You plan to deploy virtual machines (VMs) for
a mobile application. You have the following requirements:
Ensure that all VMs use the Standard D3 size.
Ensure that at least two of the four servers must be available at all times.

You need to configure four VMs for application development.
Solution: Create a Virtual Machine Scale Set (VMSS) that has an instance count of 4.

Q. Do scale sets work with Azure availability sets?
A. Yes. A scale set is an implicit availability set with five fault domains and five update domains. Scale sets of more than 100 VMs span multiple placement groups, which are equivalent to multiple availability sets. For more information about placement groups, see Working with large virtual machine scale sets. An availability set of VMs can exist in the same virtual network as a scale set of VMs. A common configuration is to put control node VMs (which often require unique configuration) in an availability set and put data nodes in the scale set.
