What is the first step in deploying a CDN for a website?

Updating DNS records to point the domain to the CDN.

Creating a CDN endpoint or distribution in the CDN provider's console.

Configuring the origin server to allow CDN access.

Uploading all website content to the CDN provider's servers.

How does redundancy enhance the availability of a network service?

By providing alternative paths or components that can take over when a primary component fails.

By prioritizing traffic from critical users over other traffic.

By encrypting all data to prevent unauthorized access.

By reducing the amount of traffic that the network needs to handle.

A company runs a critical application on two VMs in different availability zones. They use a load balancer to distribute traffic. However, they are concerned about the load balancer itself being a single point of failure. What should they do?

Use a single load balancer with a higher capacity

Place the load balancer in the same availability zone as one of the VMs

Deploy a second load balancer in a different availability zone and use DNS failover

Use a software load balancer on one of the VMs

What is the primary purpose of autoscaling in a cloud environment?

To manually resize virtual machines when the administrator notices high usage.

To provide a fixed number of resources regardless of demand.

To increase the security of the cloud environment by adding more firewalls.

To automatically adjust the number of compute resources based on current demand.

A company runs a legacy application that requires source IP address preservation for logging and security. They are migrating from an on-premises hardware load balancer to a cloud-based solution. The cloud load balancer they are considering does not preserve source IP addresses. What should they do?

Use a network load balancer that preserves source IP addresses

Use an application load balancer that terminates TLS

Use a software load balancer on a VM
