Which of the cloud cross-cutting aspects relates to the requirements placed on the cloud provider by the cloud customer for minimum performance standards and requirements that must be met?

ARegulatory requirements

BSLAs

CAuditability

DGovernance

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

The locality--or physical location and jurisdiction where the system or data resides--is the dominant driver of regulations. This may be based on the type of data contained within the application or the way in which the data is used. The contract and SLA both articulate requirements for regulatory compliance and the responsibilities for the cloud provider and cloud customer, but neither artifact defines the actual requirements. Instead, the contract and SLA merely form the official documentation between the cloud provider and cloud customer. The source of the data may place contractual requirements or best practice guidelines on its usage, but ultimately jurisdiction has legal force and greater authority.

Really? I didn't think SLAs were that important in cloud services!

I thought it was D, governance covers a lot of ground.

Wait, are we sure it's not A? Regulatory stuff can be strict too.

I'm pretty sure it's B, SLAs are all about performance standards.

Governance sounds familiar, but I don't recall it specifically addressing performance requirements. SLAs seem like the best fit here.

I feel like auditability could relate to performance, but it seems more focused on tracking and compliance rather than minimum standards.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about regulatory requirements being more about compliance than performance.

I think this might be about SLAs since they define the performance standards a cloud provider must meet.

Okay, let's see. The key risk here is that the Auto Deployment feature could cause issues with the indexes.conf file. I'm leaning towards C, but I'll double-check the other options just to be sure.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. I know there are a few different backup and recovery tools in Windows, but I can't remember the specific names. I'll have to think this through carefully.

I'm pretty confident the answer is C. Business architecture is all about aligning the organization's capabilities and investments with its strategic goals.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The options seem to be getting at some nuance around the conditions for using derogations. I'll need to re-read the question carefully.

Okay, I think I've got a handle on this. A public load balancer and Traffic Manager would be the way to go. The public load balancer can distribute the traffic across the VMs, and Traffic Manager can handle the routing from the different locations. Seems like a solid solution to me.

Definitely SLAs. I'm not trying to end up like that poor guy who had his video calls cut off due to 'internet issues' during the pandemic. Gotta lock down those minimum performance standards!

I was thinking Governance, but SLAs make more sense. The customer needs to hold the provider accountable to specific requirements.

SLAs seem like the obvious choice here. The cloud customer would want to ensure the provider meets certain performance standards in their service-level agreement.
