SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS REMINDER
The remaining questions are associated with two cases.
Each case has an introductory, descriptive passage (case text) that describes background information and requirements for a specific cloud based design. And each case has a set of six related, randomized questions. You will need to read the case text in order to answer the related questions correctly.
Given that there are two cases with six scored questions each, the total number of case-based scored questions is 12.
When you display each questions you can easily review the related case text in a pop-up window by clicking on the “Case” icon (shown below)
Case 4
Refer to the exhibit.

Your company is currently using a traditional SAN storage network. The server infrastructure is partially virtualized. There is a public cloud in place that is used to test development and application migration to cloud.
Business requirements:
- Consolidate the network, storage, and compute resources
- Simplify network management and storage provisioning
- Maintain application performance
- Need to share resources to reduce cost and improve efficiency
Other considerations:
- Monitoring of protection SLAs
- All transactions must be logged for auditing review
- Users are validated using internal credentials
Refer to Case 4.
You are designing a private cloud to use VLANs to support compute-to-compute connectivity. The IT team has added a requirement to simplify the configuration management within the infrastructure.
What is a limitation related to VLANs for this requirement?
An organization wants to deploy a CMP solution for their private cloud environment. What is required for the CMP to work effectively?
A company has the following requirements:
- Infrastructure with a designated SAN
- Run applications on pre-integrated hardware components
- Workloads are Platform 2.0 applications
Which solution would meet these requirements?
A company has the following requirements:
- Modular building blocks
- Scalability
- In-house management solution
- No physical SAN
What type of infrastructure would meet these requirements?
Case 1
Refer to the exhibit.

Your company recently negotiated several contracts with new customers to use its proprietary eCommerce system. As a result, the customer base has grown rapidly, which has introduced several challenges and requirements.

Solution. You must ensure that monitoring is included in the platform. Which key metrics need to be available
from the PaaS Solution that you select?
As a cloud architect, you are designing a CI solution to ensure that you isolate specific workloads for security.
What should you design for?
An organization wants to provide its developers the ability to deploy VMs. These VMs have software and
libraries installed that are used to develop applications. Each VM will be configured with the same IP address
and will be able to download application code from a central server.
What will be included in the design to support these requirements?
A cloud architect is tasked with designing a backup using the Remote with Cloud Gateway Deployment Model.
What is a design consideration?
Which type of storage is typically designed to span multiple sets of hardware and has a flat repository?
A cloud architect is designing a hybrid cloud for an organization. A requirement for this environment is that the private cloud user credential be trusted by both cloud provisioning APIs.
Which type of authentication will meet this requirement?
