Amazon Web Services is which type of cloud computing distribution model?

  1. Software as a Service (SAAS)

  2. Platform as a Service (PAAS)

  3. Infrastructure as a Service (IAAS)

  4. none of these


Correct Option: C

AI Explanation

To answer this question, you need to understand the different types of cloud computing distribution models.

Option A) Software as a Service (SaaS) - This option is incorrect. SaaS refers to a cloud computing distribution model where software applications are provided over the internet on a subscription basis. Users do not have to worry about managing the underlying infrastructure or platform.

Option B) Platform as a Service (PaaS) - This option is incorrect. PaaS refers to a cloud computing distribution model where a platform is provided over the internet for developers to build, test, and deploy applications. Users do not have to worry about managing the underlying infrastructure, but they have control over the applications they build.

Option C) Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) - This option is correct. IaaS refers to a cloud computing distribution model where virtualized computing resources, such as virtual machines, storage, and networks, are provided over the internet. Users have control over the operating systems, applications, and data on the infrastructure.

Option D) None of these - This option is incorrect. Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a cloud computing platform that falls under the Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) distribution model.

The correct answer is C) Infrastructure as a Service (IAAS). This option is correct because Amazon Web Services (AWS) provides virtualized computing resources over the internet, allowing users to have control over their operating systems, applications, and data.

What is Cloud Foundry?

  1. A factory that produces cloud components

  2. An industry wide PaaS initiative

  3. VMware-led open source PaaS.

  4. none of these


Correct Option: C
Explanation:

To answer this question, the user needs to know what Cloud Foundry is. Cloud Foundry is a platform as a service (PaaS) that allows developers to build, deploy, and scale applications quickly and easily.

Now let's explain each option and why it is right or wrong:

A. A factory that produces cloud components: This option is incorrect. Cloud Foundry is a software platform, not a physical factory.

B. An industry-wide PaaS initiative: This option is partially correct. Cloud Foundry is indeed a PaaS initiative, but it is not an industry-wide initiative. It was initially created by VMware, but it is now managed by the Cloud Foundry Foundation, which is a non-profit organization.

C. VMware-led open source PaaS: This option is mostly correct. Cloud Foundry was initially created by VMware and is now managed by the Cloud Foundry Foundation, which is an open-source organization. It is a PaaS that allows developers to build, deploy, and scale applications quickly and easily.

D. None of these: This option is incorrect. Options B and C are both partially correct and together they provide a complete and accurate description of Cloud Foundry.

Therefore, the answer is: C. VMware-led open source PaaS.

This is a software distribution model in which applications are hosted by a vendor or service provider and made available to customers over a network, typically the Internet.

  1. Platform as a Service (PaaS)

  2. Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)

  3. Software as a Service (SaaS).

  4. none of these


Correct Option: C

Which of the following statements about Google App Engine (GAE) is INCORRECT.

  1. It's a Platform as a Service (PaaS) model.

  2. Automatic Scalability is built in with GAE. As a developer you don't need to worry about application scalability

  3. You can decide on how many physical servers required for hosting your application.

  4. The applications deployed on GAE have the same security, privacy and data protection policies as that of Google's applications. So, applications can take advantage of reliability, performance and security of Google's infrastructure.


Correct Option: C

AI Explanation

To answer this question, let's go through each option to understand why it is correct or incorrect:

Option A) It's a Platform as a Service (PaaS) model - This option is correct. Google App Engine (GAE) is indeed a Platform as a Service (PaaS) model, where developers can build and deploy applications without worrying about the underlying infrastructure.

Option B) Automatic Scalability is built in with GAE. As a developer you don't need to worry about application scalability - This option is correct. GAE provides automatic scalability, meaning that it can handle the scaling of your application based on the incoming traffic without the need for developers to worry about it.

Option C) You can decide on how many physical servers required for hosting your application - This option is incorrect. In Google App Engine, developers do not have control over the number of physical servers required for hosting their application. The underlying infrastructure is managed by Google, and developers only need to focus on writing their application code.

Option D) The applications deployed on GAE have the same security, privacy, and data protection policies as that of Google's applications. So, applications can take advantage of reliability, performance, and security of Google's infrastructure - This option is correct. Applications deployed on Google App Engine benefit from the same security, privacy, and data protection policies as Google's applications, ensuring reliability, performance, and security.

Therefore, the incorrect statement is Option C) You can decide on how many physical servers required for hosting your application.

The correct answer is C.

I've a website containing all static pages. Now I want to provide a simple Feedback form for end users. I don't have software developers, and would like to spend minimum time and money. What should I do?

  1. Hire software developers, and build dynamic page.

  2. Use ZOHO creator to build the required form, and embed in html page.

  3. Use Google App Engine (GAE) to build and deploy dynamic page.

  4. none of these


Correct Option: B

AI Explanation

To answer this question, you need to understand different options available for building a simple feedback form for your static website. Let's go through each option to understand why it is correct or incorrect:

Option A) Hire software developers, and build a dynamic page - This option is incorrect because it involves additional costs and time to hire developers and build a dynamic page. Since you mentioned that you don't have software developers and want to spend minimum time and money, this option is not suitable.

Option B) Use ZOHO creator to build the required form and embed it in an HTML page - This option is correct. ZOHO Creator is a low-code platform that allows you to easily create forms and embed them in your website. It provides a user-friendly interface and requires no coding skills. You can build the feedback form using ZOHO Creator and then embed it in your static HTML page, allowing end users to provide feedback.

Option C) Use Google App Engine (GAE) to build and deploy a dynamic page - This option is incorrect because it involves more complexity and technical knowledge compared to Option B. Google App Engine is a platform for building and hosting web applications, and it requires programming skills to develop and deploy a dynamic page. Since you mentioned that you don't have software developers, this option is not suitable.

Option D) None of these - This option is incorrect because Option B, using ZOHO Creator, is a suitable and cost-effective solution for your requirement.

The correct answer is Option B. This option is correct because using ZOHO Creator allows you to build the required feedback form without the need for software developers and with minimum time and cost investment.
