MS-900 question #388 exhibit

Answer Area

  • Running virtual machines on server hardware deployed in a datacenter that is maintained by your company is an example of a private cloud solution.Yes
  • Using Azure Backup to back up virtual machines on server hardware your company maintains is an example of a private cloud solution.No
  • Running Azure Virtual Desktop is an example of a public cloud solution.Yes

Explanation

Evaluate statements to correctly classify scenarios into private, public, or hybrid cloud deployment models.

Approach. Statement 1: Select 'Yes'. Running virtual machines on server hardware in a datacenter maintained exclusively by your company is the standard definition of an on-premises private cloud, as the resources are dedicated solely to one organization. Statement 2: Select 'No'. Using Azure Backup (a service from a public cloud provider) to back up virtual machines located on your company's private hardware combines private and public cloud resources, making it a hybrid cloud solution, not purely a private cloud. Statement 3: Select 'Yes'. Azure Virtual Desktop is a managed service hosted on Microsoft Azure, which is a public cloud platform.

Common mistakes.

  • common_mistake. A common mistake is selecting 'Yes' for the second statement by assuming that because the VMs are on private hardware, the whole solution remains private. However, introducing a public cloud service like Azure Backup transforms the architecture into a hybrid cloud model.

Concept tested. Cloud computing deployment models (Public Cloud, Private Cloud, and Hybrid Cloud).
