EMC Proven Professional – Cloud Architect — Question 14

In a hypothetical future scenario, a CFO wants the corporation's intelligent lighting system to turn on only when humans are present, as well as change color depending on the time of day and local weather conditions.
What emerging 3rd Platform technologies would enable the desired capabilities?

Answer options

• A. Big data analytics and augmented humans
• B. Internet of Things and sensor networks
• C. Sensor networks and big data analytics
• D. Augmented humans and Internet of Things

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, as the Internet of Things (IoT) allows devices to communicate and respond to environmental conditions, while sensor networks can detect human presence and weather changes. Options A and D do not specifically address the need for real-time environmental interaction, and option C lacks the IoT component necessary for connecting these systems effectively.
