CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-003) — Question 215

A company would like to move all its on-premises platforms to the cloud. The company has enough skilled Linux and web-server engineers but only a couple of skilled database administrators. It also has little expertise in managing email services. Which of the following solutions would best match the skill sets of available personnel?

Answer options

• A. Run the web servers in PaaS, and run the databases and email in SaaS.
• B. Run the web servers, databases, and email in SaaS.
• C. Run the web servers in IaaS, the databases in PaaS, and the email in SaaS.
• D. Run the web servers, databases, and email in IaaS.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because it allows the company to utilize their expertise in managing web servers through PaaS, while leveraging SaaS for databases and email, areas where they have limited skills. Options B and D suggest using SaaS and IaaS for all services, which would not capitalize on the available skills effectively. Option C involves using IaaS for web servers, which may require more management expertise than their team possesses.
