Developing Applications and Automating Workflows Using Cisco Platforms (DEVASC) — Question 190

A new application is being developed with specific platform requirements. The platform and application deployment and the ongoing platform management must be fully automated. The application includes a large database component that has significant disk I/O requirements. Which application deployment type meets the requirements?

Answer options

• A. Python virtual environment
• B. virtual machine
• C. bare metal
• D. container

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, container, as containers provide the necessary automation for deployment and management, while efficiently handling high disk I/O through their lightweight nature. Options A and B do not offer the same level of automation and resource efficiency for large database applications, and C, bare metal, lacks the automation capabilities needed for ongoing management.
