C1000-142 Exam Dumps : IBM Cloud Advocate v2

Direct area storage, also known as direct-attached storage (DAS), is as the name implies. DAS is a storage device which directly connected to your computer or server, if often connected to a single machine only. Some examples of direct attached storage are floppy disks, optical disc, compact discs (CDs) and digital video discs (DVDs), hard disk drives (HDD), flash drives and solid-state drives (SSD). DAS is often connected with single computing machine only so sharing capabilities are limited and poor. Block storage is highly available and resilient and will often include data encryption at rest and in transit. Block storage, is used to store data files on Storage Area Networks (SANs) or cloud-based storage environments. It can be attached to compute instance. Block Storage normally mounted onto only one compute node at a time. With block storage, you specify the size of the storage and pay a fee based on the size you provisioned. Block storage suitable for low latency workloads where consistently high speeds required. File Storage associated with Network Attached Storage (NAS) technology. File Storage organizes files in a hierarchy of named directories. The ability for File Storage to be mounted to multiple compute nodes at a time make it an ideal solution for common storage requirements. Object Storage enable you to store and access unstructured data anywhere in the world with a self-service portal backed by RESTful APIs. Object Storage supports exponential data growth and cloud-native workloads with built-in high-speed file transfer capabilities, cross-region offerings and integrated services. Use cases : Backup and recovery, Data archiving, Cloud-native application, AI and big data analytics.

Correct Answers : The Essential Characteristics of Cloud Computing according to NIST : On-demand self-service : A consumer can unilaterally provision computing capabilities, such as server time and network storage, as needed automatically without requiring human interaction with each service provider. Broad network access : Capabilities are available over the network and accessed through standard mechanisms that promote use by heterogeneous thin or thick client platforms (e.g., mobile phones, tablets, laptops, and workstations). Resource pooling: The provider’s computing resources are pooled to serve multiple consumers using a multi-tenant model, with different physical and virtual resources dynamically assigned and reassigned according to consumer demand. There is a sense of location independence in that the customer generally has no control or knowledge over the exact location of the provided resources but may be able to specify location at a higher level of abstraction (e.g., country, state, or datacenter). Examples of resources include storage, processing, memory, and network bandwidth. Rapid elasticity: Capabilities can be elastically provisioned and released, in some cases automatically, to scale rapidly outward and inward commensurate with demand. To the consumer, the capabilities available for provisioning often appear to be unlimited and can be appropriated in any quantity at any time. Measured service : Cloud systems automatically control and optimize resource use by leveraging a metering capability at some level of abstraction appropriate to the type of service (e.g., storage, processing, bandwidth, and active user accounts). Resource usage can be monitored, controlled, and reported, providing transparency for both the provider and consumer of the utilized service. Self diagnosis: It's self made option, added for distraction.

IBM Cloud™ Internet Services is a simple set of edge network services for customers looking to secure their internet-facing applications from DDoS attacks, data theft and bot attacks, as well as for those customers needing to optimize their web applications, or ensure global responsiveness and the ongoing availability of their internet-facing applications.
