Microsoft 365 Fundamental Practice

Answer the question in the picture

• Software as a Service (SaaS)

• Platform as a Service (PaaS)

• Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)

Answer explanation

The IaaS model provides the ability to have full responsibility for the management of your operating systems and network controls. Software-as-a-Service provides access to the applications in the cloud. All you need is to provide the data. Operating systems and network controls cannot be managed in the SaaS model. Operating systems cannot be managed with this model and network controls are a shared responsibility.

Answer the question in the picture

• Software-as-a-Service (SaaS)

• Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS)

• Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS)

• Function-as-a-Service (FaaS)

Answer explanation

Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) is similar to IaaS (virtual machines) but offers a specific service with most of the management being the responsibility of the cloud provider. Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) is software hosted by a cloud provider and available to users. Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS) is equivalent to virtual machines, where the customer is responsible for installing and configuring all the software running on it. Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) offers a platform for hosting functions, which usually respond to events, being triggered only for a very specific action and stopped immediately after concluding the task.

Answer the question in the picture (choose two)

• high availability of resources

• complete control of a data center

• ability to deploy apps across regions

• local residency of data

Answer explanation

Cloud computing provides high availability of resources. Cloud computing provides geo-distribution, which gives the ability to deploy apps and other resources across regions. In cloud computing, the service provider has control of the data center, not the company. In cloud computing, data does not reside locally.

Answer the question in the picture

• The cloud allows resources to scale up or down as business needs change

• Cloud computing shifts expenditures toward capital expenses

• Cloud computing provides low-level access to hardware

• Datacenter operators have full control of the procurement and physical installation for servers

Answer explanation

Moving to the cloud provides unlimited computing power using a pay-as-you-go pricing model. This allows scaling up and down to meet the business needs. Moving to the cloud reduces capital investments, shifting expenses to operational expenses. Moving to the cloud means you abstract the low-level hardware, having access, at the lowest level, to a virtual machine. In the cloud, procurement and physical installation is the sole responsibility of the cloud provider.
