Multiple choice

Which of the following is called 'Resource pooling' in the perspective of accessing remote services of Cloud computing?

  1. Measured services provide such controlling features. Resource pooling has a pool of such resources that need to be assigned.

  2. It provides transparency for both the provider and consumer of the utilised service.

  3. In this service, a consumer can unilaterally provision computing capabilities, such as server time and network storage.

  4. In this service, the provider's computing resources are pooled to serve multiple consumers using a multi-tenant model.

  5. In this service, the providers and consumers have shared resources.
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

The provider's computing resources are pooled to serve multiple consumers using a multi-tenant model with different physical, and virtual resources dynamically assigned according to the consumer demand.

Multiple choice

Which of the following services is not provided automatically in 'Rapid elasticity' cloud control in cloud computing?

  1. This service is responsible for the resources to be configured elastically on the basis of demand.

  2. In this service, the capabilities are available for provisioning often appear unlimited and can be appropriated in any quantity at any time.

  3. In this service, the cloud systems automatically control and optimise resource use by leveraging a metering capability at some level of abstraction, appropriate to the type of service.

  4. In this service, the resources are optimised.

  5. This is a pre-planned service.
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

The 'Rapid Elasticity' service does not provide such control for the resources. This is true about 'Measured service' in cloud computing.

Multiple choice

Which of the following on demand services is not included in Infrastructure as a service (IaaS) in clouds?

  1. It facilitates the deployment of applications or services without the cost and complexity of buying and managing the underlying hardware and software.

  2. In these services, the users are provided access to application software and databases.

  3. It provides physical virtual machines and other resources.

  4. IaaS-cloud providers supply the resources on-demand from their large pools installed in data centers.

  5. IaaS-cloud providers provides resource optimisation.
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
E Correct answer
Explanation

This is incorrect, as it does not provide such technique.

Multiple choice

Which of the following are the informations/services that the Resilient computing does not provide in cloud automation technique?

  1. It is a model for enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources.

  2. In this computing, the clouds manage the infrastructures in a centralised platform.

  3. These fundamentals are necessary only for public cloud infrastructure.

  4. It provides optimisation of clouds.

  5. It manages the clouds in the public place based on their availability.
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

These fundamentals are equally necessary for both public and private cloud infrastructure.

Multiple choice

Which of the following 'Utility computing' provides the information for the service providers and consumers in order to achieve public cloud management?

  1. It refers broadly to any distributed application that distinguishes between service providers (servers) and service requestors (clients).

  2. It is a distributed architecture without the need for central coordination.

  3. It refers the packaging of computing resources, such as computation and storage, as a metered service similar to a traditional public utility.

  4. This computing has several computers that are used mainly by large organisations for critical applications.

  5. It manages the public clouds based on their availability.
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer

This is correct about 'Utility computing'. This computing manages the resources in a easier way that can be accessed with utility when required.

Multiple choice

Which of the following tools does the 'Dynamic provisioning' in Cloud management depend on for the service vendors?

  1. It provides the allocation of the resources on pay-per-use basis to the customers.
