Explanation:

Data Entry: Geo-replicated database only
From Contoso scenario: Each location database for the data entry application may have an unpredictable amount of activity. Data must be replicated to secondary databases in Azure datacenters in different regions.
Business intelligence: Elastic database pools only
From Contoso scenario: For the business intelligence application, corporate executives must be able to view all data in near real-time with low network latency.
SQL DB elastic pools provide a simple cost effective solution to manage the performance goals for multiple databases that have widely varying and unpredictable usage patterns.

Topic 6, SQL Server ReportingBackground
You manage a Microsoft SQL Server environment that includes the following databases:
DB1, DB2, Reporting.
The environment also includes SQL Reporting Services (SSRS) and SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS). All SSRS and SSAS servers use named instances. You configure a firewall rule for SSAS.
Databases
Database Name:
DB1
Notes:
This database was migrated from SQL Server 2012 to SQL Server 2016. Thousands of records are inserted into DB1 or updated each second. Inserts are made by many different external applications that your company's developers do not control. You observe that transaction log write latency is a bottleneck in performance. Because of the transient nature of all the data in this database, the business can tolerate some data loss in the event of a server shutdown.
Database Name:
DB2
Notes:
This database was migrated from SQL Server 2012 to SQL Server 2016. Thousands of records are updated or inserted per second. You observe that the WRITELOG wait type is the highest aggregated wait type. Most writes must have no tolerance for data loss in the event of a server shutdown. The business has identified certain write queries where data loss is tolerable in the event of a server shutdown.
Database Name:
Reporting
Notes:
You create a SQL Server-authenticated login named BIAppUser on the SQL Server instance to support users of the Reporting database. The BIAppUser login is not a member of the sysadmin role.
You plan to configure performance-monitoring alerts for this instance by using SQL Agent Alerts.
