 = A is the correct answer because the memory size of an ECS instance is determined by the instance type, and it cannot be changed independently. If you want to change the memory size of an ECS instance, you must change the instance type to another one that has a different memory size12

B, C, and D are incorrect answers because the system disk size, data disk size, and number of data disks of an ECS instance can be changed without changing the instance type. You can use the ECS console or API to resize the system disk or data disks of an ECS instance, or add or remove data disks from an ECS instance3456

A large shopping mall deploys a new video surveillance system. The five-floor building in which the mall is located installed 35 HD cameras to monitor the major exits. The surveillance system is deployed on an ECS instance, which has four 2 TB data disks to store video data.

However, video data grows rapidly and the engineers find that the ECS will run out of storage space within 2 weeks.

In this case, OSS is thought to be the best solution for addressing the storage challenge while ensuring quick access to historical video data when needed. OSS is a cloud-based object storage service that provides massive, secure, low-cost, and highly reliable storage for unstructured data such as images, videos, and documents. OSS can store any amount of data and scale up or down on demand. OSS also supports direct video stream storage capabilities, removing the need for a video segmentation cluster. OSS can be accessed through RESTful APIs, SDKs, or web consoles, and can be integrated with other Alibaba Cloud services such as CDN, ECS, and SLB. OSS provides various storage classes for different data storage scenarios, from hot data storage to cold data storage. For video surveillance data, the Infrequent Access (IA) or Archive storage classes can be used to reduce the storage cost while maintaining high data durability and availability123. References: 1: Alibaba Cloud Multimedia Solutions | Video Monitoring & Surveillance1 2: Overview - Object Storage Service - Alibaba Cloud2 3: OSS Concepts - Alibaba Object Storage Service Course - Cloud Academy

Alibaba Cloud Auto Scaling service allows you to automatically adjust the number of ECS instances in a scaling group based on your business needs and scaling policies. You can set the minimum and maximum number of instances in a scaling group to limit the range of scaling actions1. When you create a scaling rule, you can specify the number of instances to be added or removed, or the expected number of instances after the scaling action2. You can also create a scheduled task to execute a scaling rule at a specified time or periodically3.

In this question, the customer sets the minimum number of instances to 6 and the maximum number of instances to 8 in the scaling group. This means that the scaling group will always have at least 6 instances and at most 8 instances. The customer also adds a scaling rule to remove 5 instances, and creates a scheduled task based on this rule. However, this scaling rule will not be executed if it violates the minimum and maximum limits of the scaling group. Therefore, when the scheduled task is activated once, the scaling group will only remove 2 instances, which is the difference between the current number of instances (8) and the minimum number of instances (6). The remaining number of instances in the scaling group will be 6, which is the correct answer. References: 1: Create a scaling group - Auto Scaling - Alibaba Cloud Documentation Center2: Create a scaling rule - Auto Scaling - Alibaba Cloud Documentation Center3: Create a scheduled task - Auto Scaling - Alibaba Cloud Documentation Center.
