Question 2

Alibaba Cloud Object Storage Service (OSS) is a massive, highly available, secured and cost effective storage service. One of the special characteristics of OSS is its superior data reliability, because of its underlying backup technology and policies. Which of the following statement about OSS backup is correct?



Answer : D

D is the correct answer because OSS supports 3 internal data copies, no human intervention is required to recover the data when anything goes wrong. OSS provides high data reliability and durability by storing multiple replicas of data on different devices in the same region. OSS automatically detects and repairs data errors or failures, and ensures data consistency across all replicas.OSS also supports cross-region replication (CRR) to back up data to another region for disaster recovery12

A, B, and C are incorrect answers because they do not reflect the actual backup technology and policies of OSS.

A is incorrect because OSS does not require manual recovery of data, as it automatically handles data errors or failures.

B is incorrect because OSS provides data protection and backup for customers, and customers do not need to safeguard their own data or use offsite backups.

C is incorrect because OSS does not use RAID0+1 configuration of its underlying physical hard disks, but rather uses a distributed storage system that stores multiple replicas of data on different devices.

Question 5

Auto Scaling is a management service that can automatically adjust elastic computing resources based on your business needs and policies. Which of the following is not the feature supported by Alibaba Cloud Auto Scaling?



Answer : D

Auto Scaling is a management service that can automatically adjust elastic computing resources based on your business needs and policies.Auto Scaling supports the following features12:

Elastic Scale-Out: Automatically adds ECS instances to handle increased workloads.

Elastic Scale-In: Automatically removes ECS instances to reduce costs when workloads decrease.

Elastic Self-Health: Automatically replaces unhealthy ECS instances to ensure high availability and reliability.

Scheduled Scaling: Automatically adds or removes ECS instances based on predefined schedules.

Predictive Scaling: Automatically predicts future workloads and adjusts ECS instances accordingly.

Elastic Self-Diagnostic is not a feature supported by Alibaba Cloud Auto Scaling.It is a fictitious term that does not exist in the Alibaba Cloud documentation or course materials.Reference:1: Auto Scaling: Automatically Adjusts Computing Resources - Alibaba Cloud2: Auto Scaling:What is Auto Scaling? - Alibaba Cloud


Question 6

ECS can be used along with_____to store static images, videos, and reducing storage fees.



Answer : A

ECS can be used along with OSS to store static images, videos, and reducing storage fees. OSS is a fully managed object storage service that provides industry-leading scalability, durability, and performance. OSS can store any amount of data from anywhere, such as static images, videos, backup files, and so on. ECS is a cloud computing service that provides elastic and secure virtual cloud servers. ECS can access OSS resources by using an internal endpoint of OSS, which reduces the network latency and the traffic costs.By using ECS and OSS together, you can benefit from the following advantages1:

Improved user experience: You can use OSS to store and deliver static content, such as images and videos, to your users. OSS integrates with CDN products to provide reliable, scalable, flexible, and cost-effective content distribution solutions. You can use ECS to run dynamic applications, such as web servers and databases, that require high performance and availability. ECS provides fast memory and the latest CPUs to help you power your cloud applications and achieve faster results with low latency.

Reduced storage fees: You can use OSS to store large amounts of data at a low cost. OSS offers four tiers of storage: Standard, Infrequent Access, Archive, and Cold Archive. Each tier is cost-optimized for specific storage patterns. You can use lifecycle policies to automatically transition your data to the appropriate storage tier based on your business needs. You can also use Storage Capacity Unit to plan your storage budget and usage in one place. You can use ECS to scale your computing resources up or down based on real-time demands. ECS supports pay-as-you-go and different capacity reservation plans. You can also use spot instances to reduce your computing costs by up to 90%.

Enhanced security: You can use OSS to protect your data from unauthorized access, deletion, or modification. OSS supports encryption at rest and in transit, anti-leech protection, bucket policies, RAM roles, and more. You can also use your own key (BYOK) encryption to ensure your data is encrypted when it is stored in the cloud platform. You can use ECS to secure your cloud servers from network attacks, such as DDoS and brute force attacks. ECS supports security groups, firewalls, VPCs, SSL certificates, and more. You can also use Resource Access Management (RAM) to control the access permissions of your ECS instances and OSS buckets.Reference:Use Alibaba Cloud CDN to accelerate access to OSS
