CompTIA Cloud+ (CV1-003) — Question 18

A media company has made the decision to migrate a physical, internal file server to the cloud and use a web-based interface to access and manage the files.
The users must be able to use their current corporate logins.
Which of the following is the MOST efficient way to achieve this goal?

Answer options

• A. Deploy a VM in a cloud, attach storage, and copy the files across
• B. Use a SaaS service with a directory service federation
• C. Deploy a fileshare in a public cloud and copy the files across
• D. Copy the files to the object storage location in a public cloud

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because deploying a fileshare in a public cloud allows for easier access and management of files while ensuring compatibility with existing corporate logins. Option A, while feasible, involves unnecessary complexity with a VM. Option B may not provide direct file management capabilities, and option D is less efficient for file sharing as it is typically suited for unstructured data rather than file access.
