Question 1

Cloud computing is a_________    system and it is necessarily unidirectional in nature.

Accepted Answer

Cloud computing can be either stateless or stateful, but it is not inherently unidirectional in nature. The statement is incorrect as it suggests cloud computing is unidirectional and necessarily fits one of the mentioned attributes. Cloud services can be designed to be stateless, where each request from the client to the server must contain all the information needed to carry out the request, with no session information being retained by the server. However, cloud computing can also support stateful operations, where the server retains session information over multiple requests. Reliability is a characteristic of cloud computing, but it does not define its operational direction or state management.
