What is a deliverable of the cloud design process?
Answer : C
An organization wants to deploy cloud applications using block storage. The architect has included a HCI
solution in the cloud design. Which requirements must have led to including this solution in the design?
Answer : A
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS REMINDER
The remaining questions are associated with two cases.
Each case has an introductory, descriptive passage (case text) that describes background information and requirements for a specific cloud based design. And each case has a set of six related, randomized questions. You will need to read the case text in order to answer the related questions correctly.
Given that there are two cases with six scored questions each, the total number of case-based scored questions is 12.
When you display each questions you can easily review the related case text in a pop-up window by clicking on the ''Case'' icon (shown below)
Case 4
Refer to the exhibit.
Your company is currently using a traditional SAN storage network. The server infrastructure is partially virtualized. There is a public cloud in place that is used to test development and application migration to cloud.
Business requirements:
Consolidate the network, storage, and compute resources
Simplify network management and storage provisioning
Maintain application performance
Need to share resources to reduce cost and improve efficiency
Other considerations:
Monitoring of protection SLAs
All transactions must be logged for auditing review
Users are validated using internal credentials
Refer to Case 4.
You are sizing the compute capacity nodes in a hyper-converged infrastructure solution. Each node has 35 TB of storage capacity. You have calculated the total cloud storage requirement to be 700 TB.
What is the minimum number of nodes required?
Answer : D
An organization uses Microsoft Active Directory (AD) for service authentication in their private cloud. They
want to use the same authentication source for services in the public cloud. External employees access
services in both clouds and need to authenticate with AD.
The organization wants to minimize and secure network traffic. Which solution will address these
requirements?
Answer : A
If the metering tool supports multi-tenancy and integrates with the cloud portal, what should be considered?
Answer : D
The cost of collecting the metrics, and the balance between the value they provide and the impact on application operation. If metering code cannot be incorporated into existing components or roles, and you need to increase the number of instances of components or roles just to carry out metering, you might increase costs beyond the savings or income available from metering.
