Question 4 of 15

As a cloud administrator, you are tasked with ensuring that all assets within your organization's cloud environment are accurately tracked and managed. To achieve this, you utilize a system that maintains detailed information on the types of assets in the cloud along with their configurations and relationship with other assets. Which system are you using to accomplish this task?

  • Service Level Agreement (SLA) tracker

  • Resource Utilization Monitor

  • Configuration Management Database (CMDB)

  • Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipeline

Question 5 of 15

A company is planning to shift its email service from one Software as a Service (SaaS) provider to another due to a change in business requirements. Which of the following would be a primary consideration to ensure the migration process accounts for potential differences between the platforms?

  • Adjusting hypervisor settings to match the new provider's environment

  • Streamlining account permissions for the new provider's directory service

  • Reconfiguring on-site hardware to support the new cloud platform

  • Evaluating feature compatibility between the old and new services

Question 6 of 15

  • False

  • True

Question 7 of 15

A company is seeking to store large amounts of infrequently accessed data that does not require immediate retrieval in their cloud environment. Which type of storage tier should they use to optimize costs without sacrificing data durability?

  • Multi-regional storage

  • Cold storage

  • Glacier

  • Hot storage

Question 8 of 15

A cloud administrator needs to verify if a virtual machine in the cloud is reachable from their local machine. Which command should they use to test network connectivity?

  • The nslookup command

  • The ping command

  • The traceroute command

  • The netstat command

Question 9 of 15

A cloud administrator is tasked with configuring a group of VMs that handle sensitive data processing. These VMs must be isolated due to compliance requirements and should not share hardware resources with other VMs processing less sensitive data. To maintain compliance, which type of affinity rule should the administrator implement?

  • VM-Host Anti-Affinity

  • Host-Host Affinity

  • VM-VM Anti-Affinity

  • VM-Host Affinity

Question 10 of 15

  • Intrusion protection system (IPS)

  • Network access control (NAC)

  • Packet brokers

  • Web application firewall (WAF)

Question 11 of 15

A company is seeking to extend its IT capabilities without investing in additional data center infrastructure. They plan to use cloud services for common business applications and high-demand services that face the public internet.
