A health care applications software company has been growing rapidly by acquiring several similar companies, which are based in other states.
IT is now struggling to provide services for developing, testing and supporting multiple application teams. For each application, customer support must frequently handle sensitive electronic medical records data that is subject to Federal compliance. No formal standards or policies have been established across application teams relative to sensitive data.
With the goal of ITaaS transformation, senior management seeks to establish IT governance. What would you recommend for a governance model, and why?
A university is building a private cloud. They plan to offer services to students, faculty, and staff. Each group has access to different levels of sensitive data with different performance characteristics. In addition, the university must comply with FERPA and HIPAA regulations for a small number of services.
What should a cloud architect recommend to the university during the cloud design phase?
A public cloud service provider is facing several challenges in its IT operations:
1 - Rapidly increasing storage capacity needs, forcing frequent data migrations
2 - Transition to a converged network infrastructure with FCoE
3 - Deployment of several types of hypervisors simultaneously in production
4 - Long-term archival of very large volumes of tenant data for compliance
5 - In-flight encryption for tenants with stringent compliance requirements
Which challenge(s) would VPLEX address?
Refer to the exhibit.
You have been hired to assist with a migration to an ITaaS environment. The company has offices
in Atlanta, Dubai, and London, with 5000, 2000, and 3000 employees, respectively. A data center exists in each location, and most services have been virtualized. Messaging services are provided locally to the user.
You have just performed an assessment of the environment. The results are shown in the exhibit.
The CIO is interested in closing one of the data centers and migrating some or all of the services to a public cloud service provider (CSP). Any services that do not get migrated to the CSP will be hosted at one of the other two data centers. Network latency averages 8 milliseconds between the Atlanta and London offices, and 10 milliseconds between the London and Dubai offices. Traffic between Atlanta and Dubai is routed through London.
The eCommerce application is external facing and is hosted at all three data centers. Atlanta services 50% of the users in North and South America. London services 40% of the users in Europe and Asia. Dubai services 10% of the users in Africa and Australia.
You have tentatively chosen a CSP that is housed in Frankfurt, and would have access to 3 Gb/s of network bandwidth to the facility. The CSP's service levels are as follows:
-RPO: 4 hours -RTO: 1 hour -Availability: 99.995%
Your recommendation is to close the Dubai data center over a one-year time horizon.
What migration strategy would you recommend for the services that are currently hosted in the Dubai data center, and why?
The line of business (LOB) Services Product Manager has asked you to implement a solution that monitors the actual resource utilization of your company's private cloud infrastructure.
This solution should gather actual statistics of utilization and relate them back to the actual infrastructure costs to show the realized cost to run the vApp within the company's private cloud.
Which software solution would best fit the requirements of the LOB Services Product Manager?
