Dell EMC Associate – Information Storage and Management v4 — Question 64

In an SDS environment, which protocol supports the resource-oriented architecture for the development of scalable and lightweight web applications while adhering to a set of constraints?

Answer options

• A. FTP
• B. NFS
• C. CIFS
• D. REST

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is REST because it is designed specifically for building scalable web applications based on resource-oriented architecture and operates under constraints like statelessness and uniform interface. The other options, FTP, NFS, and CIFS, are primarily file transfer and sharing protocols and do not support the same architectural principles as REST.
