testing?

A. Financial management system
B. Word processing

C. Customer transaction database

D. Emergency response system

B. Noncritical software such as a word processor should be tested
first in the cloud.
A, C, and D are incorrect. Sensitive or mission-critical software
related to finances, customer transactions, or emergency response are

not good cloud pilot choices; less critical software would be a wiser
choice.

29. Your company’s application development team requires a self-
provisioned software development solution that can quickly grow or
shrink based on each project’s parameters. Existing customer data will
be used from a customized line-of-business application. What would

you suggest?
A. Private PaaS

B. Private IaaS
C. Public PaaS

D. Public IaaS

A. Since customer data stored in a customized line-of-business app
is needed, private PaaS makes the most sense.
B, C, and D are incorrect. Private and public IaaS do not apply to

developing software applications in a cloud environment; IaaS
provides computing infrastructure such as cloud storage. Getting data
from a customized app into a public cloud could prove to be complex.

30. Cloud solutions that can tolerate failures yet still provide service are
referred to as what?

A. IaaS
B. Highly portable

C. PaaS

D. Highly available

D. High availability ensures cloud solutions are always accessible.
