A startup wants to deploy a containerized web application without managing virtual machines, Kubernetes clusters, or the underlying operating system. They need automatic scaling and only want to pay for the compute resources consumed by their code. Which service model should they choose?

SaaS with a pre-built web application

PaaS with a serverless container platform

IaaS with virtual machines and a load balancer

IaaS with a managed Kubernetes cluster

A company runs a sensitive application on a private cloud but wants to burst into a public cloud during peak load. They are concerned about data exposure during processing in the public cloud. Which approach best addresses their concern while maintaining the hybrid model?

Keep sensitive data in the private cloud and send only anonymized or encrypted data to the public cloud for processing

Use a community cloud instead of public cloud for bursting

Use a public cloud provider that offers dedicated physical servers for the burst capacity

Move all data to the public cloud to simplify security

A multinational corporation must comply with data residency laws that require customer data to remain within specific geographic boundaries. They also need to scale rapidly during seasonal peaks. Which deployment strategy best satisfies both requirements?

Community cloud shared with other companies in the same industry

Hybrid cloud with on-premises data centers in each country

Public cloud with regions located in the required countries
