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
– A disaster recovery plan to meet RTO / RPO targets
Other considerations:
– All data must be secured at rest and in-flight
– Include an app development platform
Refer to Case 6.
You are designing a transformation from Platform 2.0 to cloud. You review the existing infrastructure and business requirements.
You want to use a trust system to authenticate a user and share that authentication information with other entities in the form of a token.
Which technology should you select?
- A . ISO
- B . SAML
- C . IDPS
- D . PCI DSS
What should be considered when placing a monitoring tool in the cloud environment?
- A . All infrastructure component interfaces must be accessible to consumers
- B . A common privileged user should be configured on all infrastructure components
- C . Monitoring tool should be placed in the consumer resource infrastructure
- D . All infrastructure component interfaces must be accessible to the tool
What describes the storage categories represented by OpenStack Swift and EMC XtremIO requirements?
- A . Swift = Distributed Object Storage
XtremIO = Central Storage - B . Swift = Central Storage
XtremIO = Distributed File Storage - C . Swift = Distributed Block Storage
XtremIO = Distributed Object Storage - D . Swift = Distributed File Storage
XtremIO = Distributed Block Storage
What are some common inter-cloud connectivity methods for linking layer-2 network segments in hybrid cloud deployments?
- A . IPsec VPN and direct-connect
- B . Direct-connect and VXLAN
- C . SSL VPN and IPsec VPN
- D . VXLAN and SSL VPN

Refer to Case 6.
You are designing a private cloud to use VLANs to support compute to compute connectivity. The cloud services and security requirements will result in 5,120 separate VLANs being created.
What is a concern related to VLANs when reviewing this requirement?
- A . VLANs limit the number of NICs that can participate in the network to 2,048
- B . Configuration times out when attempting changes to more than 1,024 VLANs
- C . Each VLAN requires separate infrastructure and management traffic
- D . VLANs can only support up to 4,094 virtual networks
An organization wants to deploy SaaS applications in their cloud. The SaaS applications will be using application HA to maintain up-time levels of 99.9%. If an instance of the application fails, a new instance will be deployed to replace it.
What should the cloud architect include in the design to support this up-time requirement?
- A . Additional hot stand-by hosts
- B . Sufficient host capacity and orchestration
- C . HA and replication licenses for hypervisors
- D . Quorum disks
An organization is planning to deploy CMP components for their private cloud environment. As a cloud architect, why would you recommend a SaaS-based CMP solution?
- A . Speeds up the initial deployment and reduces the complexity in managing the CMP solution
- B . Allows the organization to use low cost IT resources in order to run the CMP application
- C . Allows management of both private and public cloud resources using a legacy unified management tool
- D . Requires only a one-time investment and the organization has full control over the CMP solution
What is the minimum number of nodes required for high availability in a HCI cluster?

- B . Provide the ability to programmatically deploy virtual storage resources
- C . Switch array functionality from active/passive to active/active
- D . Provide a redundant front-end for object storage
