C and D are incorrect because they are not required when creating

a cloud virtual server.

Techniques and Methods for Cloud Computing Deployment

4. You are linking your company’s Microsoft Active Directory user

accounts to your cloud provider for federated identity management.
What type of configuration must you create within your company?
A. Identity trust

B. XML provider

C. Relying party trust
D. JSON provider

C. Since your company is the identity provider, you must trust the
relying party offering services, so you must configure a relying party

trust.
A, B, and D are incorrect. In the question, the cloud provider would
configure an identity trust, not you. XML and JSON are not specifically
related to configuring identity federation.

5. Your public cloud environment is configured such that additional cloud

storage is allocated to a virtual server when the used disk space on that
server reaches more than 80 percent of disk capacity. Which term best
describes this configuration?
A. Elasticity

B. Automation

C. Self-service
D. Disk latency

B. If storage space is allocated automatically based on a configured
threshold, it is automation.

A, C, and D are incorrect. Elasticity is a close second here, but it
does not imply the automatic provisioning of resources. Automation is
a better answer. Self-service allows users to provision the computing
resources they need using a web site, but it is not automatic. Disk
latency refers to the amount of time taken to read data from a disk and

is not related to automation.
