• An iris-swale app must run a Function when a blob is created, not every minute on a schedule. Which service best delivers that discrete reactive event?
• A jonquil-row storage account should notify a webhook on Microsoft.Storage.BlobCreated. Which Event Grid resource type surfaces that built-in Azure service event?

• A lupine-hill Event Grid topic exists, but nothing runs when events publish. What delivery contract is still missing?
• A mallow-bend Function should run only for blobs under /orders, not for every blob in the storage account. How should Event Grid narrow delivery?
• A nuthatch-grove third-party site exposes HTTPS and must be told when a municipal resource changes. How should Event Grid deliver that notice?

• A fireweed-cut fulfillment step must run once, durably, when checkout finishes — even if the worker is down. Which Azure messaging service fits best?
• A goshawk-crag shop has three workers and each order must be processed by only one of them. Which Service Bus entity should the developer use?

• A newt-pond shipping subscription should receive only messages where region equals west. What should the developer configure on the subscription?
• An otter-slide workflow needs sessions, transactions, and a dead-letter queue, but a teammate opens a storage-account queue because "a queue is a queue." Which service should the developer use?
• A plover-bar intern picks Event Grid for a durable order command and Event Hubs for a one-consumer fulfillment queue. How should the services be restated?
• A rabbitbrush-wash thumbnail job is fire-and-forget, small, and needs no sessions or duplicate detection. Which queue should the developer use?
• A sage-flat worker dequeues a resize job and another worker immediately grabs the same message. What Queue Storage behavior should the developer rely on to hide in-flight work?
• A tamarisk-wash Function processes a Storage queue message and returns, then the same job runs again. What must happen after success?
