INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY & NETAPP FOUNDATIONS EXAM
WITH CORRECT ACTUAL QUESTIONS AND CORRECTLY WELL
DEFINED ANSWERS LATEST ALREADY GRADED A+
Cloud Storage Management ......ANSWER......Service providers offer
cloud server environments to run applications and raw storage services
to store data, along with management services.
Cloud Storage Tiering ......ANSWER......An automated process that
places data on different drive types based on access frequency, enabling
classification by importance and movement between tiers.
Cloud-Based Disaster Recovery ......ANSWER......A cost-efficient solution
that replicates data in the cloud, eliminating the need for a secondary
data center and enabling recovery during disruptions.
Cloud Bursting ......ANSWER......A method that provides a temporary
resource boost to handle large workloads without expanding
permanent infrastructure.
Workload Migration to Cloud ......ANSWER......The process of migrating
on-premises workloads to the cloud to leverage scalability, flexibility,
and cost benefits.

Cloud Data Backup Services ......ANSWER......Fully managed services
that create and store data backups in separate locations for protection
and long-term archiving.
What is block storage? ......ANSWER......Block storage breaks up data
into singular blocks and stores each block as a separate piece of data.
What is block storage ideal for? ......ANSWER......Applications that
require dedicated, low-latency storage for each host system.
What does low latency mean in the context of block storage?
......ANSWER......Low latency refers to the system's ability to process
high volumes of data with minimal delays, such as sub-millisecond
latency I/O in flash-based persistent storage.
What are examples of cloud solutions that support block storage?
......ANSWER......Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS), Azure Disk
Storage, Google Cloud Persistent Disk.
What is File Storage? ......ANSWER......File storage stores data as a single
piece of information in a folder. Folders and files are organized in a
hierarchy, and the path to the folder must be known for data access.
What is File Storage ideal for? ......ANSWER......Applications that require
access to shared files and require a file system.

What are examples of cloud solutions for File Storage?
......ANSWER......Amazon Elastic File System (Amazon EFS), Azure File
System, Google Cloud Filestore.
Term ......ANSWER......Definition
What is object storage? ......ANSWER......Object storage stores data in
distinct units called objects, each bundled with metadata and a unique
identifier. Data is kept in separate storehouses.
What is object storage ideal for? ......ANSWER......Building new modern
applications that require scale and flexibility.
What are examples of cloud solutions that support object storage?
......ANSWER......Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3), Azure
Block Storage, Google Cloud Storage.
Snapshot Copies(Data Protection Strategy) ......ANSWER......Snapshot
copies are point-in-time representations of data that can be used for
quick recovery, but they are not considered full backups.
Replication (Data Protection Strategy) ......ANSWER......Replication
involves copying data from one location to another in real-time or on a
schedule to ensure availability and redundancy.
