New Release CV0-004 CompTIA Cloud+ Questions

To collect process-level, memory-usage tracking for virtual machines, deploying cloud-monitoring agent software is the best approach. The agent can gather detailed system metrics and send them to the cloud-native monitoring services for analysis and visualization.

Configuring automatic elasticity is the best approach to manage an e-commerce website that experiences random performance drops due to variable traffic. Automatic elasticity enables the cloud resources to scale up or down automatically based on the current load, ensuring consistent performance even during unexpected traffic surges.

The concept of automatic elasticity is part of the cloud management and technical operations content in the CompTIA Cloud+ curriculum.

When servers in a hot site are clustered with the main site, it indicates that all servers are replicated from the main site in an online status. This means that the hot site maintains a live, real-time copy of data and applications, ensuring immediate availability in the event of a failure at the main site. Unlike options A and B, which describe load balancing and backup strategies respectively, clustering with a hot site as described in option C ensures that the hot site can take over with minimal downtime, maintaining business continuity.

To improve container security, the engineer should add the instruction "USER nonroot" to the Dockerfile. This change ensures that the container does not run as the root user, which reduces the risk of privilege escalation attacks. Running containers as a non-root user is a best practice for enhancing security in containerized environments.

CompTIA Cloud+ content includes security concerns, measures, and concepts for cloud operations, highlighting container security best practices such as running containers with least privilege to mitigate security risks.
