Hotspot Question For each of the following statements, select Yes if the statement is true. Otherwise, select No. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point. Answer:

Question

Exhibit

Answer Area

• It is possible to connect cloud services to on-premises server resources.Yes
• Scaling cloud-hosted infrastructure components includes expanding server resources and networking components.Yes

Explanation

Both statements are true as hybrid cloud connectivity is a standard capability and scaling encompasses both compute and network resources.

Approach. Select 'Yes' for the first statement because cloud platforms, such as Azure, provide services like Site-to-Site VPNs and ExpressRoute to securely connect cloud resources with on-premises datacenters, forming a hybrid cloud architecture. Select 'Yes' for the second statement because scaling cloud infrastructure involves not only increasing compute capacity (CPU, RAM) but also upgrading or expanding networking components (like load balancers, network gateways, and allocated bandwidth) to adequately support the increased load.

Common mistakes.

• common_mistake. Selecting 'No' for the first statement ignores the fundamental hybrid capabilities of modern public clouds, assuming they must be isolated. Selecting 'No' for the second statement reflects a common misconception that scaling is solely about adding server compute power, neglecting the critical role networking configuration plays in overall system capacity and performance.
