Which statement correctly distinguishes a Type 1 hypervisor from a Type 2 hypervisor?

Type 1 requires a host operating system, while Type 2 does not

Type 1 is always free, while Type 2 is always commercial

Type 1 runs directly on the physical hardware, while Type 2 runs on top of an operating system

Type 1 is used only for desktop virtualization, while Type 2 is used for server virtualization

How does virtualization support cloud computing?

It eliminates the need for physical data centers

It makes all cloud services free

It replaces the need for cloud service providers

It provides the underlying technology that allows multiple customers to share physical resources

An organization wants to maximize the number of virtual machines per physical server while maintaining acceptable performance. They are comparing Type 1 and Type 2 hypervisors. Which factor is MOST important in this decision?

Type 1 hypervisors have lower overhead, allowing more VMs per server

Type 2 hypervisors are easier to install, so they are always preferred

Type 2 hypervisors provide better hardware support, so they can run more VMs

Type 1 hypervisors require a host operating system, increasing overhead

A company needs to provide a scalable web application to customers. They want to avoid managing servers, but they also need to handle unpredictable traffic and pay only for actual usage. Which cloud service approach best meets these requirements?

PaaS with a fixed number of application instances

Serverless computing (FaaS) with automatic scaling

SaaS subscription for a fixed number of users

IaaS with reserved virtual machines
