Implementing and Operating Cisco Enterprise Network Core Technologies (ENCOR) — Question 388

You need to weigh the pros and cons of deploying a premise-based data center versus using a cloud-based data center deployment. What is an advantage of using a premise-based solution? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Lower application latency for end users
• B. Easily scalable
• C. Lower capital costs
• D. Reduced deployment times
• E. Increased control over the environment

Correct answer: A, E

Explanation

Choosing a premise-based solution offers lower application latency for end users due to proximity to the infrastructure, which enhances performance. Additionally, it provides increased control over the environment, allowing for tailored configurations and compliance with specific regulations. In contrast, options B, C, and D do not represent advantages of a premise-based solution, as scalability is typically easier in the cloud, capital costs are often lower with cloud solutions, and deployment times may be faster in a cloud environment.
