During a particular week, failure of component 1 occurred as follows:
– Tuesday = 8 AM to 11 AM
– Thursday = 8 PM to 10 PM
– Friday = 5 AM to 9 AM

Which storage infrastructure management activity involves measuring throughput of components and identifying bottlenecks?
- A . Availability management
- B . Security management
- C . Capacity management
- D . Performance management
A company plans to deploy a new application in their environment. The new application requires 2 TB of storage space. During peak workloads, the application is expected to generate 4500 IOPS with a typical I/O size of 4 KB. The capacity of each available disk drive is 250 GB. In addition, the maximum number of IOPS a drive can perform at with a 70% utilization is 90 IOPS.
What is the minimum number of disk drives needed to meet the application’s capacity and performance requirements for a RAID 0 configuration?
- A . 8
- B . 40
- C . 50
- D . 70
What is an accurate statement about a hybrid cloud?
- A . Supports data and application portability for load balancing between clouds
- B . Allows organizations with common concerns to share the cost of deploying the cloud
- C . Enables the entire cloud infrastructure to be controlled by the consumer’s IT staff
- D . Allows an organization to outsource the implementation of a private cloud to a cloud provider

- B . Ensuring data security and privacy
- C . Reducing storage performance
- D . Increasing data retrieval times
An organization has two data centers separated by a distance of 1600 km. They want to replicate between these data centers for disaster recovery purposes. They are concerned that this will impact application response time.
Which solution will address this concern?
- A . Asynchronous remote replication
- B . Storage-based COFW snapshot replication
- C . Synchronous remote replication
- D . Storage-based ROW snapshot replication
What is an advantage of a software-based object storage implementation?
- A . Provides the flexibility to reuse the existing infrastructure
- B . Requires less storage capacity tostore a large number of objects
- C . Provides the flexibility to create more than one object ID for an object
- D . Requires less hardware to support scalable architecture
