A company is deploying a batch processing job that runs for 30 minutes every night and requires 8 vCPUs and 16 GB of memory. The job is not time-sensitive and can be interrupted. Which resource allocation approach is most appropriate?

On-demand instances with the required size

Spot instances with the required size

Reserved instances with a 1-year commitment

Dedicated hosts with the required size

A company runs a batch processing job that takes 45 minutes to complete. The job is memory-intensive and runs once a day. The team is evaluating cloud compute options to minimize cost while meeting the job's requirements. Which compute service should they choose?

A spot virtual machine that can be terminated at any time.

A serverless function with a 15-minute maximum timeout.

A reserved virtual machine instance running 24/7.

A container instance that starts when the job is triggered and stops after completion.

A company wants to automate the deployment of a new application environment. The environment includes a VNet, a subnet, a load balancer, and multiple VMs. The company also needs to ensure that the deployment is compliant with internal security policies, such as specific NSG rules. Which approach should they take?

Use a manual process with a checklist to ensure all resources are created correctly.

Use a configuration management tool like Ansible to configure the VMs after they are manually created.

Use an infrastructure as code tool like Terraform to define and provision all resources, including NSG rules.

Use the cloud provider's CLI to create resources one by one.

A company runs a batch processing workload that runs for 2 hours every night. The workload is CPU-intensive and can be interrupted and resumed. The company wants to minimize costs. What is the best approach?

Use reserved instances to get a discount on the nightly workload.

Use on-demand instances to ensure the workload completes reliably.

Use spot instances to run the workload, with a checkpointing mechanism to resume if interrupted.

Use a serverless function with a 2-hour timeout.

An e-commerce company expects a 10x increase in traffic during the holiday season. Their current infrastructure consists of a single web server and a database server. They want to ensure the application remains responsive without over-provisioning resources during the rest of the year. What should they implement?

Set up a load balancer and add multiple web server instances, with auto-scaling based on CPU utilization.

Increase the database server's memory and storage to improve performance.

Migrate to a larger, more powerful web server and database server to handle the peak load.

Use a content delivery network (CDN) to cache static content and reduce load on the web server.
