An enterprise wishes to implement ITaaS to provide services for different business units through a service catalog.
As a cloud architect, what would you consider when designing a service catalog while keeping security in mind for this enterprise?

• A. Encrypt all the information provided in the service catalog
• B. Implement RBAC through the service catalog to control access and privileges
• C. Ensure that each business unit has a dedicated service catalog
• D. Encrypt only service template information in the service catalog

An organization is deploying services in an existing private cloud. The lines of business have concerns about service performance in planned services.
How should IT address these performance concerns?

• A. Cloud administrator defines appropriate performance in the cloud design.
• B. Service manager defines appropriate performance in the SLA.
• C. Cloud architect defines appropriate performance in the cloud design.
• D. Cloud administrator defines appropriate performance in the SLA.

A healthcare provider is determining how to implement a measured services and chargeback methodology for a hybrid cloud solution.
Which best practice should be followed to enable accurate and transparent reporting to the consumer?

• A. Use an independent tool to measure the public cloud metrics. Use an internal tool to measure the private cloud metrics
• B. Use a tool that integrates with both the public cloud and private cloud to collect metrics
• C. Use public cloud vendor-specific tools to measure the public cloud metrics. Use an internal tool to measure the private cloud metrics
• D. Use a mash-up of the internal private cloud and the public cloud metrics

A cloud-based legal records management start-up is developing an overall service design strategy for a software offering. They want to use public clouds and CDNs to deliver their service geographically close to their customers, but they must handle sensitive information carefully.
How should the organization meet this goal?

• A. Deploy private clouds to secure sensitive data
• B. Implement orchestration logic to secure sensitive data
• C. Host no sensitive data by linking to primary sources
• D. Localize sensitive data to also be geographically close to customers

An IT organization has hired you as a cloud architect to assist them in planning for cloud services.
Your first goal is to help the IT organization categorize existing services against service characteristics.
You have provided a table that shows common service characteristics and their attributes for considerations, benefits, and trade-offs.
The following attributes from the table have been identified:
- Consideration: bundling services increases complexity
- Benefit: replaceable components, improved recovery from failure
- Trade off: very finite capability
What characteristics correspond to the identified attributes?

• A. Idempotent, Loosely Coupled, and Reusable
• B. Composable, Loosely Coupled, and Autonomy
• C. Discoverable, Composable, and Idempotent
• D. Discoverable, Reusable, and Autonomy
