Data Center - correct answer ✔a facility used to house management
information systems and associated components, such as
telecommunications and storage systems
Multi tenancy - correct answer ✔in the cloud means that a single instance of
a system serves multiple customers. In the cloud, each customer is called a
tenant and multiple tenants can access the same system
Cloud Fabric - correct answer ✔is the software that makes possible the
benefits of cloud computing, such as multi-tenancy.
Cloud Fabric Controller - correct answer ✔is an individual who monitors and
provisions cloud resources, similar to a server administrator at an individual
company. Cloud fabric controllers provision resources, balance loads,
manage servers, update systems, and ensure all environments are available
and Page 480operating correctly
Private Cloud - correct answer ✔serves only one customer or organization
and can be located on the customer's premises or off the customer's
premises. A private cloud is the optimal solution for an organization such as
the government that has high data security concerns and values information
privacy.
Community Cloud - correct answer ✔serves a specific community with
common business models, security requirements, and compliance
considerations. Community clouds are emerging in highly regulated industries
such as financial services and pharmaceutical companies
, Hybrid Cloud - correct answer ✔includes two or more private, public, or
community clouds, but each cloud remains separate and is only linked by
technology that enables data and application portability
Cloud Bursting - correct answer ✔is when a company uses its own
computing infrastructure for normal usage and accesses the cloud when it
needs to scale for peak load requirements, ensuring a sudden spike in usage
does not result in poor performance or system crashes.
Utility Computing - correct answer ✔offers a pay-per-use revenue model
similar to a metered service such as gas or electricity. Many cloud computing
service providers use utility computing cloud infrastructures
Dynamic Scaling - correct answer ✔which means the MIS infrastructure can
be automatically scaled up or down based on needed requirements
Disaster Recovery as a Service - correct answer ✔offers backup services
that use cloud resources to protect applications and data from disruption
caused by disaster.
Software as a Service - correct answer ✔delivers applications over the cloud
using a pay-per-use revenue model. Before its introduction, companies often
spent huge amounts of money implementing and customizing specialized
applications to satisfy their business requirements. Many of these applications
were difficult to implement, expensive to maintain, and challenging to use.
Usability was one of the biggest drivers for creating interest in and success for
cloud computing service providers.
Data as a Service - correct answer ✔facilitates the accessibility of business-
critical data in a timely, secure, and affordable manner. DaaS depends on the
principle that specified, useful data can be supplied to users on demand,
