Advantages of cloud computing
1. Trading capital expense for variable expense 2. Massive scalar economies 3. Stop guessing capacity 4. Increasing speed and agility 5. Stop spending money on running and maintaining data centers 6. Going global in minutes
What are the six advantages of cloud computing?
True
When going global in minutes, one can deploy applications in many AWS Regions worldwide with just a few button clicks, get lower latency, and get better experience for customers at a simple, minimal cost. True False
True
When maintenance is reduced, one can focus more on core business goals. True False
True
When using cloud computing, one can attain a lower variable cost that one can get on their own. True False
False
Because usage from many customers is aggregated in the cloud, AWS providers can attain higher scalar economies to translate into higher, non pay-as-you-go prices. True False
False
By saving money on technology, one also adapts to new applications with as much space needed in either weeks or days and not in minutes. True False
True
Capital expenses (capex) are funds that a company uses to acquire, upgrade, and maintain physical assets, such as property, industrial buildings, and equipment. True False
True
Cloud computing allows one to access as much or as little as needed, as well as scale up and down as required in only a small time amount. True False
True
Cloud computing allows one to focus on customers instead of heavy lifting with racking, stacking, and powering servers. True False
True
In a cloud computing environment, new IT resources are only a click away, meaning that one reduces the time it takes to make resources available to developers from weeks to minutes. True False
True
Instead of investing heavily in data centers and servers before knowing how to use them, one can pay only for consumed resources and their consumed amounts. True False
False
One must pay for everything in the data center that has been used and not for what has not been used. True False
False
When one makes a capacity decision before deploying an application, one either deals with expensive idle resources or limited capacity, as this is not a problem with cloud computing. True False
False
When stopping to spend money on running and maintaining data centers, one can not better focus on projects that differentiate businesses instead of focusing on infrastructure. True False
True
With increased speed and agility, an organization greatly benefits because of the cost and time that it takes to experiment and develop things becoming significantly lower. True False
variable expense
an expense that the person who bears the cost can easily either alter or avoid.
