Question #63
Which process is represented in the graphic?
- A . Concatenation
- B . Partitioning
- C . Striping
- D . Shredding
Correct Answer: B
Question #64
Cloud tiering is the part of which tier?
- A . Policy
- B . Secondary Storage
- C . Primary Storage
- D . Application
Correct Answer: B
B
Explanation:
Cloud tiering is a technology that automatically moves inactive or infrequently accessed data from high-performance primary storage to lower-cost secondary storage, such as cloud-based object storage. This process is based on policies that are defined by the IT administrator. Cloud tiering is a part of the secondary storage tier, which is typically used for storing inactive or infrequently accessed data that does not require the high performance or low latency of primary storage. The primary storage tier is used for storing active or frequently accessed data that requires high performance and low latency. The application tier is used for hosting applications and services, while the policy tier is used for defining and enforcing data management policies.
