PRACTICE QUESTIONS DETAILED
SOLUTIONS
◉ A single-tenant cloud computing environment is also known as a(n)
_____.
a. public cloud
b. private cloud
c. autonomic cloud
d. hybrid cloud. Answer: b. private cloud
An enabling technology for cloud computing is autonomic computing,
or the ability of IT systems to manage themselves and adapt to changes
in the computing environment, business policies, and operating
objectives.
◉ A positive development for public, private, and hybrid cloud
computing environments is the emerging ability of IT systems to
manage themselves and adapt to changes in the computing environment,
business policies, and operating objectives. This ability is known as
_____.
a. cloud virtualization
b. multicloud computing
c. 5G networking
,d. autonomic computing. Answer: autonomic computing
An enabling technology for cloud computing is autonomic computing,
or the ability of IT systems to manage themselves and adapt to changes
in the computing environment, business policies, and operating
objectives.
◉ A common reason an organization chooses a private rather than a
public cloud environment is _____.
a. budgeting concerns
b. IT staff reductions
c. lack of adequate hardware
d. concerns about data security. Answer: d. concerns about data security
Organizations that implement a private cloud often do so because they
are concerned that their data will not be secure in a public cloud.
◉ An organization using a public cloud allows the service provider to
store their data in a remote location, possibly on the same storage device
as other organizations' data. This results in which key concern with the
public cloud?
a. vendor lock-in
b. complex pricing arrangements
,c. frequent software updates
d. inadequate data security. Answer: d. inadequate data security
Data security is another key concern when using a public cloud
computing service because you are relying on someone else to safeguard
your data, which may even reside on the same storage device as data
from another organization (perhaps even a competitor).
◉ As a result of the analysis of aggregated sensor data, an IoT device
may receive _____.
a. self-configuring and self-healing instructions
b. a series of new IP addresses
c. a download of data from other systems
d. updates, alerts, or even automatic adjustments. Answer: d. updates,
alerts, or even automatic adjustments
To be truly part of the IoT, networked devices need IP addresses and a
connection to the public Internet, which allows the data to be transmitted
to an operational historical database containing data from many sensors.
The operational data can be accessed via the Internet and analyzed by
users with personal computers or mobile devices. Updates, alerts, or
even automatic adjustments may be sent to the devices on the IoT based
on this analysis.
◉ Autonomous vehicles will rely on 5G for their _____.
, a. sensors
b. human interaction
c. brake function
d. gas mileage. Answer: sensors
Self-driving cars will rely on 5G for their sensors, which interact with
other cars on the road and process traffic and mapping information in
real time.
◉ Clara has a device that responds to her voice commands by reviewing
her calendar appointments, performing search queries, and playing
streaming music. This is an example of a(n) _____.
a. fitness tracker
b. smart speaker
c. Tesla device
d. infrastructure enhancement. Answer: smart speaker
Smart speakers, such as Google Home and Amazon Alexa, connect to
the Internet and respond to your voice commands to perform functions
such as reviewing calendar appointments, performing search queries,
streaming music, and turning on or off lights connected to smart outlets.
