Question

Drag and Drop Question You are the Microsoft 365 administrator for a company that uses only on-premises resources. The company does not have a private cloud. You need to deploy cloud-based resources for the company that minimizes costs. Which cloud models should you use? To answer, drag the appropriate cloud models to the correct requirements. Each cloud model may be used one, more than once, or not at all. You may need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point. Answer:

Options

APrivate
BPublic

Explanation

Since the company uses only on-premises resources with no private cloud and needs to minimize costs, the correct cloud model is Public cloud. Public cloud is the most cost-effective option because infrastructure is owned and maintained by a third-party provider (like Microsoft Azure), eliminating capital expenditure on hardware and data centers. There is no need for a Hybrid model since there is no existing private cloud or on-premises cloud infrastructure to integrate with, and the requirement is simply to deploy new cloud-based resources cost-efficiently.
