IBM Assessment Foundations of Cloud Computing Architecture V3 Set 1

Capital Expenditure ✘ Investment Expenditure ✘ Operational Expenditure ✘ Reserve Capital Expenditure ✔

Ordering, installing, and configuring physical resources ✘ Manually decommissioning physical resources when demand on the workload is reduced ✘ Dynamic scaling of computing infrastructure available to a workload based upon measured demand ✘ Alerting system administrators to taken an action as the measured demand on the workload changes ✔

Local Area Network (LAN) ✘ Wide Area Network (WAN) ✘ Virtual Private Network (VPN) ✘ Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) ✔

Automated workflows embedded in cloud computing infrastructures respond more quickly to requests. ✘ A self-service portal and service catalog enables cloud consumers to provision resources without humaninteraction. ✘ Applications running in a cloud computing infrastructure can be accessed on demand across the Internet byWeb browsers. ✘ The supply of virtualized server, storage, and network resources can be dynamically provisioned, moved, ordeprovisioned as demand changes. ✔

VM optimization ✘ Solid state drives ✘ Dynamic dashboard ✘ Availability management ✔

They are dictated by vendor hardware and software. ✘ They include extensibility and security requirements. ✘ They are predominately concerned with choosing the right hardware. ✘ They do not include business requirements only technical requirements. ✔

Internally behind the enterprise's security firewall, on-premise only ✘ Externally outside of the enterprise's security firewall, on-premise only ✘ Externally outside of the enterprise's security firewall, off-premise only ✘ Internally behind the enterprise's security firewall, on-premise or off-premise ✔

Automation does not include complex business process orchestration. ✘ Automation includes only those components physically residing in the cloud management platform. ✘ Automation includes data center processes from element run-books to broad provisioning and compliancescenarios. ✘ Automation in the cloud simply reuses existing automation processes without requiring any analysis or re-engineering. ✔

Leverage a homogeneous hypervisor in order to reduce operational and capital expenses. ✘ Ensure workloads are executed across no less than ten computer nodes for improved resiliency. ✘ Ensure cloud infrastructure is sized at least four times greater than the initial expected workload. ✘ Reuse management components by sharing a common management platform to deliver cloud services. ✔
