DevOps Tools Engineer (LPIC-OT 701) — Question 23
Which of the following properties apply to a content delivery network? (Choose three correct answers.)
Answer options
- A. CDNs require all elements of a web site to be served by the same CDN.
- B. CDNs can stream large media files such as movies or music to clients.
- C. CDNs are present in multiple locations to serve content close to clients.
- D. CDNs serve huge numbers of clients with high bandwidth and low latency.
- E. CDNs forward all requests to a backend server and never store content locally.
Correct answer: C, D, E
Explanation
The correct answers are C, D, and E because CDNs indeed operate in multiple locations to provide content closer to users (C) and are designed to handle large volumes of traffic efficiently with high bandwidth and low latency (D). Option E is accurate as CDNs typically forward requests to backend servers without storing content locally. Options A and B are incorrect as CDNs do not require all elements to be served by the same provider and are not limited to only streaming media files.
