Module 3 Graded Quiz
TOTAL POINTS 10
1.Each Cloud Region can have multiple Zones (also known as Availability Zones). What are Zones?
1 point
Geographic area or region where cloud provider’s infrastructure is clustered
Unique physical locations with one or more data centers
Single shared point of failure
2.Is it possible to run completely different operating systems on Virtual Machines (VMs) that are on a single host? If yes, what makes this possible?
1 point
Yes, Virtualization makes it possible— to have VMs, running different operating systems, on a single host.
Yes, Containerization makes it possible—to have VMs that are unique physical entities, so you can have completely different Operating Systems on them.
No, it is not possible—A single host can only work as one single virtual environment, and can, therefore, have only one environment.
No, it is not possible—VMs are software-based versions of a single host. They cannot have different environments from one another.
3.Which of the following are examples of single-tenant compute environments in the Cloud? Select two.
1 point
Dedicated host
Bare Metal servers
Transient virtual servers
Reserved virtual server
4.Which of these scenarios is ideal for the use of bare metal servers, as opposed to virtual servers? Select two.
1 point
Workloads that require limited throughput and performance
Huge performance and strict security and compliance requirements
Low cost to use
CPU and I/O intensive workloads
5.What are some key differences between Containers and Virtual Machines? Select two.
1 point
Containers can use the same OS as the host, while a virtual machine needs its own copy of the OS, which can also be different from the host OS
Containers are more lightweight as compared to virtual machines
Containers are executable units of software while each virtual machine is a distinct physical entity
Even though each container uses the same OS as the host OS, it still needs to have its own copy of the OS, while a virtual machine leverages the resources of the host OS
6.There are four types of cloud storage available. Which storage type is ephemeral or non-persistent?
1 point
File storage
Object storage
Block storage
Direct Attached storage
7.What makes File storage an ideal solution for scenarios where shared storage is needed?
1 point
File storage can be mounted on multiple compute nodes at the same time
Its consistently high speed
File Storage is mounted to compute nodes via an ethernet network
Mounted from remote storage appliances
8.Which of these scenarios are best suited for Block Storage? Select two.
1 point
Low cost is a consideration
Workloads that need disk sharing between compute nodes
Applications that need consistent fast access to disk, such as databases
Workloads that need low-latency storage
9.Which of these are features of Object Storage? Select two.
1 point
You can directly use Object Storage without attaching it to a compute node
Object storage is effectively infinite
Object Storage can be mounted on multiple compute nodes via an ethernet network
Storage is attached to compute nodes using a fibre network
10.What is the main benefit of a Content Delivery Network (CDN)?
1 point
Speed, it makes your website faster by serving files from a location closer to the user.
Distribute tasks, workloads, and network traffic
Enhanced control over network traffic by routing traffic to specified resources
Network topology
