A best practice can change over time.

  1. True
  2. False

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

A best practice is based on experience with delivering a solution. A new product will have limited best-practice information except for vendor- or vendor-partner-based recommendations. The longer a technology is used in a community, the more potential success; therefore, best practices can change over time. Chapter 6, Validation, Thoughts, and Processes



Only a software vendor develops a standard process or configuration.

  1. True
  2. False

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

A best practice is based on experience with delivering a solution. A new product will have limited best-practice information except for vendor- or vendor-partner-based recommendations. The longer a technology is used in a community, the more potential success; therefore, best practices may be recommended by non-vendor- related people. It is up to a designer to validate this information rather than ignore it straightaway. Chapter 6, Validation, Thoughts, and Processes



A logical design can contain which of the following? (Choose three)

  1. BIOS settings
  2. Data flow
  3. Key component relationships
  4. High-level diagrams
  5. Server host names

Answer(s): B,C,D

Explanation:

A logical diagram can be used to show service components and how they relate to each other. A logical diagram is high level in nature and is independent of the hardware used for a solution. Chapter 2, Presenting the Data Gathered



You are a VMware architect employed to design and build application environments and the underlying platform for a software development company. The company is using a "devops" approach and has engaged with you at the beginning of the first planning meeting/pre-sprint. The software has yet to be written. However, you have some high-level specifications that are subject to change at each of the early meetings. The is more logical for virtual machine sizing.

  1. predictive sizing approach based on current software
  2. adaptive sizing approach

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

There are two types of scaling approaches in virtual platforms: adaptive and predictive. Both approaches are usable; however, a designer must work out which is the best approach for each project.
The adaptive approach to guest virtual machine design is a major advantage that virtualization technology brings to a datacenter. It allows a guest virtual machine to be created initially on a few metrics or high-level requirements (such as a limited budget) and scaled (that is, grown, not shrunk) through the virtual machine life cycle. In many cases, this scaling can be performed hot/live without outage/downtime to the running applications.
The predictive approach, on the other hand, requires more planning and research, and you must know the metrics before deployment. The advantage here is that once the virtual machine has been deployed, only application maintenance is required. The application requirements are known. Chapter 5, Design Approaches



You are working on a hybrid cloud project, where production applications (yet to be fully developed) are to be deployed. Which of the following is a project requirement?

  1. The production data must be in the UK at all times.
  2. The hosting partner provides sufficient resources without overcommitment to support application load.
  3. The hosting provider meets uptime expectations.
  4. The development team provides the software on time.

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

A requirement is a definable and measurable project item. It must be part of the delivery, and its removal cannot be justified. Chapter 2, Definitions of Key Terms
