Question 1

All of the following are cloud computing security issues except&#10;A) sensitive data access&#10;B) users technical ability&#10;C) privacy&#10;D) malicious insiders

Accepted Answer

Users' technical ability is not a cloud computing security issue. The other options - sensitive data access, privacy, and malicious insiders - are all common security concerns related to cloud computing.

Question 2

The use of network standards to connect different types of computer networks resulted in ____.&#10;A) Local Area Networks&#10;B) Enterprise computing&#10;C) Cloud computing&#10;D) Mobile computing

Accepted Answer

Network standards enable different types of computer networks to interconnect and communicate, which is a fundamental aspect of enterprise computing, where diverse systems and networks within an organization are integrated.

Question 3

A legacy IT system can be easily transferred to cloud computing.

Accepted Answer

While it is possible to transfer a legacy IT system to cloud computing, it is not always easy. It often requires significant planning, testing, and potential restructuring of the system to properly integrate with cloud technology. It is important to evaluate the costs and benefits and consider if it is the best option for the organization's needs.

Question 4

Enabling groups to work together in ways that were not available previously is called&#10;A) Mining insights from data&#10;B) Reducing costs&#10;C) Facilitating collaboration&#10;D) Making individuals more productive

Accepted Answer

Facilitating collaboration means enabling groups to work together in ways that were not available previously, as stated in the question. The other options, mining insights from data and making individuals more productive, may be related to collaboration but do not specifically refer to enabling groups to work together. Reducing costs may also indirectly aid collaboration, but it is not the best answer choice.

Question 5

The cloud service in which customers rent servers and operating systems over the Internet is called:&#10;A) Infrastructure as a Service&#10;B) Platform as a Service&#10;C) Software as a Service&#10;D) Desktop-as-a-Service

Question 6

Client server computing is just another example of the mainframes and dumb-terminals setup.

Accepted Answer

Client server computing is a different setup from the mainframes and dumb-terminals setup. In client-server computing, the processing load is distributed between the client and the server, while in the mainframe-dumb terminal setup, all processing is done on the mainframe. Additionally, client-server computing allows for more flexibility and scalability than the mainframe-dumb terminal setup.

Question 7

In a service-oriented architecture (SOA) is web services can be reused across an organization in other applications.

Accepted Answer

Question 8

One of the future features of cloud computing is grid computing.

Accepted Answer

Grid computing and cloud computing are distinct concepts. Grid computing involves connecting multiple computer systems to solve complex problems together, while cloud computing focuses on delivering computing services over the internet. Cloud computing is already a present technology, not a future feature of grid computing.

Question 9

The type of cloud used to build cloud infrastructure and applications for different businesses is called a ________ cloud.&#10;A) Public&#10;B) Vertical&#10;C) Private&#10;D) Hybrid
