CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-004) — Question 87

A cloud engineer proposes a solution to migrate a finance application to the cloud. The environment can be shared to reduce costs. Which of the following models would best meet this requirement?

Answer options

• A. Private
• B. Community
• C. Public
• D. Hybrid

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The community cloud model is designed for shared use among several organizations that have similar interests, making it ideal for reducing costs while maintaining security in a finance application context. The private model is dedicated to a single organization, which does not fulfill the cost-sharing requirement. The public model is open to all, potentially compromising security for finance applications. The hybrid model combines different types of clouds but does not specifically address the need for shared resources among similar organizations.
