- B . Influences CDN data storage requirements
- C . Influences federation server data storage requirements
- D . Influences monitoring server storage requirements
What needs to be considered when designing a distributed storage solution?
- A . Multiple management tools
- B . Fault domain detection and isolation to ensure data availability
- C . RAID configuration to ensure a drive failure is avoided
- D . Automated storage tiering to enable efficient use of drive
As a cloud architect, you are designing a CI solution to ensure that you isolate specific workloads for security.
What should you design for?
- A . High Availability
- B . Fault Tolerance
- C . Multi-tenancy
- D . Redundancy
Ian organization wants to protect the cloud management platform (CMP) from loss due to a site disaster. To support this requirement, the completed cloud design deliverables include the processes and procedures for restoring CMP functionality.
What other item should be included in the deliverables to support this requirement?

Refer to the exhibit.
Your company recently negotiated several contracts with new customers to use its proprietary eCommerce system. As a result, the scalability of the eCommerce system data is a concern for the Marketing and Sales departments.
Business requirements:
– Application resources must be able to scale up and down quickly
– External customers have protected access to the eCommerce application
– Metrics and reporting to track the use of resources and data
Other considerations:
– Applications are provided through the public cloud
– Address security vulnerabilities for customer data in the cloud
Refer to Case 3.
You must design the compute scalability functions for your administrator in a DIY private cloud. You want to use extra pools that have known performance and capacity characteristics along with orchestration tools to automate most of the deployment process.
Which method provides this function?
- A . Add more servers to the existing pool
- B . Add VMs to the existing servers in the compute pool
- C . Define storage limits in a consumption pool
- D . Define a compute pool as a known unit of consumption
You are designing the CMP structure. Where should you define the pods?
- A . Fault domain
- B . Private cloud VM
- C . Availability zone
- D . Public cloud VM
