Why is network security a critical consideration when designing a cloud bursting connection?

To prevent unauthorized access to data transmitted between on-premises and the cloud

To reduce the cost of the network connection

To increase the bandwidth of the connection

To ensure the cloud provider does not see the data

Which workload characteristic is most likely to make cloud bursting unsuitable?

Stateless application architecture

Extremely low latency requirements

Which component is essential for an orchestration workflow that manages cloud bursting?

A dedicated server for orchestration

A manual approval step for every burst

A trigger that initiates the burst based on predefined conditions

A database to store all burst data

A media company runs a video-transcoding pipeline on-premises. During peak content releases, the pipeline bursts to the cloud. The pipeline processes video files in stages: ingest, transcode, and publish. Each stage reads the output of the previous stage. The company needs to ensure that a cloud-based transcode worker never reads a partially written file from an on-premises ingest worker. What is the MOST appropriate data synchronization strategy?

Schedule the cloud transcode workers to start only after the on-premises ingest job fully completes, using a time-based delay.

Configure the on-premises ingest worker to write directly to the cloud worker's local disk over the VPN connection.

Replicate the on-premises ingest output to the cloud using a one-way sync tool that runs every 5 minutes.

Use a shared cloud object store as the intermediate staging area, and have workers poll for files with a 'complete' marker object.

When evaluating the cost of a cloud bursting solution, what operational overhead should be considered?

The cost of training staff to manage the cloud environment

The cost of maintaining the on-premises infrastructure that remains idle during non-burst periods

The cost of cloud provider support plans

The cost of monitoring and orchestrating the burst events
