CCDE: Cisco Certified Design Expert (Practical) — Question 237

A detailed enterprise-wide analysis of the current infrastructure of a large corporation identified three key findings:

1. Mainstream business processes
2. Light data volumes
3. Low regulations or compliance overheads

Considering these findings which cloud model fits this enterprise?

Answer options

• A. public cloud
• B. private cloud
• C. PaaS
• D. SaaS

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The public cloud model is ideal for organizations with mainstream business processes and light data volumes, as it allows for scalability and cost-effectiveness without heavy compliance concerns. In contrast, a private cloud is typically reserved for more sensitive data and strict compliance needs, while PaaS and SaaS are service models rather than cloud deployment models.
