Microsoft Dynamics 365 Fundamentals — Question 21

You run Dynamics 365 and line-of-business applications on-premises. Self-hosting costs are becoming prohibitive. Due to compliance regulations, Dynamic 365
Finance and Operations data must remain on-premises.
You migrate all managed solutions and Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement data to Dynamics 365 in the cloud.
You need to determine which cloud service deployment model is being used.
Which type of cloud service model is being used?

Answer options

• A. Microsoft Azure Virtual Machine deployment
• B. platform as a service (PaaS)
• C. hybrid deployment
• D. software as a service (SaaS)

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, hybrid deployment, as it involves a combination of on-premises and cloud services. Options A and B do not reflect the mixed approach of keeping some data on-premises while moving others to the cloud, and D refers specifically to a model where software is delivered over the internet without any on-premises components.
