Correct Answer:

Hybrid is correct.

A hybrid cloud links on-premises resources with public cloud resources.

Incorrect Answers:

Public is incorrect. A public cloud can be used by multiple tenants over the Internet.  

Private is incorrect. A private cloud is owned, managed, and used by a single organization.

Community is incorrect. A community cloud serves the needs of organizations with similar computing requirements.

Correct Answer:

The number of virtual machine vCPUs is correct.

Some software licensing is based on the number of CPUs. If the CPU count changes when migrating services to the cloud, the software may not function correctly, and the software licensing terms may be violated.

Incorrect Answers:

The amount of virtual machine RAM is incorrect. The amount of RAM used by a virtual machine has less impact on database software licensing than the number of vCPUs.

The virtual machine operating system used is incorrect. The operating system used by a virtual machine has less impact on database software licensing than the number of vCPUs.

Installed virtual machine guest extensions is incorrect. Virtual machine guest extensions offer additional functionality such as cloud logging and malware scanning but are not related to licensing.

Correct Answer:

Cloud bursting is correct.

Cloud bursting allows an application running on an internal private cloud to “burst” onto the public cloud to cope with peak loads. This carries with it the risk of sensitive data being put on the private cloud, so it should only be used for nonsensitive data.

Incorrect Answers:

Multitenancy is incorrect. Multitenancy is an architecture that provides a single instance of an application to serve multiple clients.

Metering is incorrect. Metering is used to track IT resources and allows a cloud provider to charge clients based on what resources they use.

Target hosts is incorrect. Target hosts are machines that own compute resources that administrators intend to move a workload to.

Correct Answer:

RPO is correct.

The recovery point objective (RPO) determines the maximum amount of tolerable data loss, and this is related to backup frequency.

Incorrect Answers:

RTO is incorrect. The recovery time objective (RTO) is the maximum amount of tolerable downtime for a service.

BIA is incorrect. The business impact analysis (BIA) is not as directly related to backups as the RPO.

DRP is incorrect. The disaster recovery plan (DRP) is not as directly related to backups as the RPO.

Correct Answer:

Incremental is correct.

Incremental backups capture only modifications from the last incremental backup.

Incorrect Answers:

Full is incorrect. Full backups consist of all items regardless of their state.

Redirect-on-write is incorrect. Redirect-on-write is a snapshot technology that points disk block modifications to a new area, thus leaving the original data intact.

Copy-on-write is incorrect. Copy-on-write creates a copy of the data, which increases processing time.

Correct Answer:

Thin provisioning is correct.

Using thin provisioning means the sum of disk volume configured space can exceed physically available storage space; the space is not allocated immediately. Instead, disk volumes consume space as they need it dynamically.

Incorrect Answers:

Thick provisioning is incorrect. Thick provisioning allocates the physical space to a volume at creation time.

Object storage is incorrect. Object storage stores data and metadata such that it is accessible using HTTP or HTTPS.

Tokenization is incorrect. Tokenization uses placeholders to represent sensitive data; the sensitive data is accessible through the token, which is only available through the tokenization system.

Correct Answer:

SLA is correct.

The service level agreement (SLA) is a document that can include information on disaster recovery responsibilities.

Incorrect Answers:

BCPaaS is incorrect. BCPaaS is an invented term and is not a document.

BIAaaS is incorrect. BIAaaS is an invented term and is not a document.

DRaaS is incorrect. DRaaS means Disaster Recovery as a Service and is not a document.

Correct Answer:

Configure RAID 1 is correct.

RAID 1 is disk mirroring; data written to the first disk is also written to a second disk.

Incorrect Answers:

Configure RAID 0 is incorrect. RAID 0 (disk striping) improves disk performance but provides no fault tolerance.

Enable a failover cluster is incorrect. Failover clusters ensure application high availability, not disk high availability.

Enable synchronous replication is incorrect. Synchronous replication is done between systems, not within them. With synchronous replication, only after all replicas report a successful data write will the app be notified that data has been written.

Correct Answer:

Security configuration baseline is correct.

Security configuration baselines assure standard security settings for devices. Deviations from the baseline are easily identified.

Incorrect Answers:

Group Policy is incorrect. Group Policy can be used to apply security baselines, but is not required.

SCCM is incorrect. Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM) can be used to apply security baselines, but is not required.

SCVMM is incorrect. Microsoft System Center Virtual Machine Manager (SCVMM) is used to manage hypervisors and virtual machine environments.

Correct Answer:

BIA is correct.

A business impact analysis (BIA) identifies asset threats and the potential impact to the business.

Incorrect Answers:

DRP is incorrect. A disaster recovery plan (DRP) details how to recover a specific failed system.

SLA is incorrect. Service level agreements (SLAs) are contracts between service providers and consumers.

BCP is incorrect. The business continuity plan (BCP) uses the BIA to establish actions to remove or minimize the impact of materialized threats.
