The correct answer is D. Plan for a horizontally scaling computing and storage infrastructure. Horizontal scaling allows the company to add more compute and storage nodes as demand increases. This approach is ideal for handling rapid growth in storage, fluctuating compute needs, and long-term doubling of processing demands, ensuring scalability and flexibility in a cloud
Question
A company migrated a critical workload from its data center to the cloud. The workload uses a very large data set that requires computational-intensive data processing. The business unit that uses the workload is projecting the following growth pattern:
- Storage requirements will double every six months.
- Computational requirements will fluctuate throughout the year.
- Average computational requirements will double every year.
Which of the following should the company do to address the business unit's requirements?
Options
- ADeploy a cloud-based CDN for storage and a load balancer for compute.
- BCombine compute and storage in vertically autoscaling mode.
- CImplement a load balancer for computing and storage resources.
- DPlan for a horizontally scaling computing and storage infrastructure.
