False
T/F The fact that cloud native application architectures rely upon CI/CD and DevOps methodologies is what makes them unique when compared to other application architectures.
False
T/F The fact that cloud-native application architectures rely upon automation and virtualization is what makes them unique when compared to other application architectures
False
T/F VirtualBox, KVM and VMWarfe Fusion are all examples of type I hypervisors
False
T/F. In addition to its other product offerings, Accenture is an example of a CSP that offers its own internally developed computing chips and operating systems.
False
T/F. NIST SP 800-145 lists scalability, on-demand services, network latency and shared resources as cloud characteristics.
False
The DevOps SDLC methodology heavily relies upon CI/CD (Continuous Infrastructure/Continuous Delivery).
False
Loading Linux on a desktop computer would be considered to be an example of ______ provisioning
Infrastructure
A cloud native architecture is a subset of a larger enterprise architecture. The cloud native architecture is included as part of an overall EA application, data and technical set of architectures.
True
T.F The purpose of NIST SP 800-145 is to provide a baseline for topics that discuss what cloud computing is.
True
T/F . OpenStack is primarily intended as a private cloud alternative to other CSPs like Azure, or GCP but it can also be used in pretty much any cloud delivery model scenario as well.
True
T/F A MCSP manages the cloud platform for their customers.
True
T/F According to NIST SP 800-145, a private cloud may be owned, managed and/or operated by an organization, a third party, or some combination of them and that (private) cloud may exist on or off premises.
True
T/F Applying security patches to an operating system running a monolithic application on a bare metal server in an enterprise data center would be a good example of a "Pets" strategy.
True
T/F CSPs must follow regulations about the protection they provide in hosting users/organizations data.
True
T/F Cloud native applications leverage DevOps development toolchains that automate the development side and virtualization which automates/virtualizes infrastructure on the operations side.
True
T/F Cloud native architectures are all about the decisions that allow everything to work seamlessly on cloud platforms by utilizing all of the capabilities that cloud platforms provide.
True
T/F Cost, Scale, Market Differentiation and Innovation/Creating Intellectual Property are among the (many reasons) that businesses choose to go to Cloud.
True
T/F In addition to its other product offerings, Amazon AWS is an example of a CSP that offers its own internally developed computing chips and operating systems.
True
T/F Infrastructure automation includes tools like Hashicorp's Vagrant and Terraform to automate infrastructure provisioning and configuration management.
True
T/F The purpose of the Cloud Native Compute Foundation,(CNCF), is to ensure open standards and specifications when it comes to cloud native application architectures.
True
T/F. Following CNCF standards and guidelines is particularly useful in scenarios where hybrid cloud delivery models are employed.
True
T/F. One of the objectives of the CNCF and an open standards approach is to avoid CSP vendor lock-in.
