2 Virtualization – VSP 2016
Q:
Which statement of the following statements best describes a Virtual Infrastructure?
A:
The x86 computers running VMware Workstation that reside within a physical datacenter.
A unified pool of abstracted resources that can be utilized by applications where and when needed.

The components of a physical datacenter that are strictly remote and accessible via the Internet.
The software that manages all the different components of the physical infrastructure – servers, storage and
network.
Q:
Which of the following statements about virtual machines is correct?
A:
A virtual machine is an isolated software container that runs its own operating system and applications. 
Virtual machines require their own special operating system that is different from operating systems for physical
computers.
Other computers on the network identify virtual machines differently from physical computers.
Virtual machines are composed of software and some hardware components.
Q:
A customer representing a major department of the national government says, “I’m comfortable if I just use
the public cloud for cost efficiencies. Why would I want a hybrid cloud?” Choose the best response.
A:
“The public cloud is completely unreliable and prone to failures and hacking. You should keep everything on premises
and forget about hybrid cloud. ”
“You don’t really need a hybrid cloud; putting all your resources into the public cloud will provide you with full
regulatory compliance as well as the cost efficiencies that would be important for a governmental organization.”
“Being that you are a government entity, security is of great concern for you. Hybrid cloud allows you to keep your
sensitive data on premises, which makes it much more secure.”

“Hybrid cloud is the next big innovation that will allow end-users to be continually connected to their resources,
regardless of whether they are physically connected to a network or the Internet.”
Q:
Which of these cloud services are offered by VMware solutions?
A:
IaaS, SaaS, PaaS, DRaaS, DaaS only
IaaS, SaaS, PaaS only
IaaS, DRaaS, DaaS only 
IaaS and DRaaS only
Q:
A customer says, “I’m not so much concerned about speed as I am about reliability. I’ve been having
difficulty making sure that my systems are always up when problems occur. How could virtualization help
me?” Choose the best response.
A:
“Virtualization provides a set of open-source programs that allow you to build your own code to increase the
reliability of your infrastructure.”
“Virtualization is about consolidation and cost-savings, not so much about reliability. If you want greater reliability,
then you need a solution from VMware’s high availability family of products.”
“Virtualization can help you by application mirroring. While your application is running, a shadow version of the
application is running in another virtual space. So if an application goes down, the shadow version takes over, and
the user doesn’t notice anything.”
“Virtualization helps by providing isolation. If one virtual machine crashes for some reason, the other virtual
machines remain unaffected because the virtual machines are completely isolated from each other.”
