Implementing and Operating Cisco Data Center Core Technologies (DCCOR) — Question 520

An engineer must suggest deployment model for a newly developed application. The engineer has a small starting budget and lacks technical knowledge and infrastructure to implement storage, operating system, and database services to support the application deployment. The engineer also needs usage data related to the service and the ability to elastically scale the deployment as customer demands grow. Which two models must be used to meet the requirements? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. infrastructure as a service
• B. public cloud
• C. software as a service
• D. private cloud
• E. platform as a service

Correct answer: B, E

Explanation

The best choices are public cloud (B) and platform as a service (E). Public cloud provides a cost-effective way to access scalable resources without the need for heavy infrastructure investment, while platform as a service offers a ready-to-use environment for application development and deployment, allowing for easy scaling and management of services. Infrastructure as a service (A) and private cloud (D) require more management and infrastructure knowledge, which the engineer lacks, and software as a service (C) does not provide the same level of deployment control and scalability needed.
