Which item describes a goal of an organization seeking digital transformation? Streamline their hardware procurement process to forecast at least a quarter into the future. Ensure better security by decoupling teams and their data. Break down data silos and generate real time insights. Reduce emissions by using faster networks in their on-premises workloads.

Break down data silos and generate real time insights.

An organization has a new application, and user subscriptions are growing faster than on-premises infrastructure can handle. What benefit of the cloud might help them in this situation? It provides physical access, so the organization can deploy servers faster. It's cost effective, so the organization will no longer have to pay for computing once the app is in the cloud. It's scalable, so the organization could shorten their infrastructure deployment time. It's secure, so the organization won't have to worry about the new subscribers data.

It's scalable, so the organization could shorten their infrastructure deployment time.

Select the two capabilities that form the basis of a transformation cloud? Select two correct answers. Open infrastructure gives the freedom to innovate by running applications in the place that makes the most sense. Data cloud provides a unified solution to manage data across the entire data lifecycle. Sustainable cloud ensures the costs of cloud resources are controlled to prevent budget overrun. Sustainable cloud ensures the costs of cloud resources are controlled to prevent budget overrun. Collaboration cloud ensures that the device a user connects with only works on the corporate network. A trusted cloud gives control of all resources to the user to ensure high availability at all times.

What is the benefit of implementing a transformation cloud that is based on open infrastructure? Open source software makes it easier to patent proprietary software. Open source software reduces the chance of vendor lock-in. On-premises software isn't open source, so cloud applications are more portable. Open standards make it easier to hire more developers.

Open source software reduces the chance of vendor lock-in.

An organization has made significant investments in their own infrastructure and has regulatory requirements for their data to be hosted on-premises. Which cloud implementation would best suit their needs? Private Cloud Public Cloud Platform as a service Software as a service

What is seen as a limitation of on-premises infrastructure, when compared to cloud infrastructure? The on-premises networking is more complicated. Maintenance workers do not have physical access to the servers. The on-premises hardware procurement process can take a long time. Scaling processing is too difficult due to power consumption.

The on-premises hardware procurement process can take a long time.
