A managed service provider hosts multiple customers' applications on a shared physical server. Each customer requires strong isolation and the ability to run different operating systems (e.g., Windows and Linux) on the same host. Which technology best meets these requirements?

Containers on a shared Linux host

Containers with a Windows host and Linux containers via emulation

Virtual machines with a hypervisor

Virtual machines but only with the same OS as the host

A company is designing a new application that will be deployed as many small, independent services. They expect to scale each service independently and want to minimize the time it takes to start new instances. Which technology is best suited for this requirement?

Virtual machines with a lightweight OS

Containers running on a shared host

Virtual machines with a pre-configured golden image

Containers but with a full guest OS in each container

Which statement accurately describes a container?

A lightweight, portable unit that packages an application and its dependencies, sharing the host OS kernel.

A hypervisor-based runtime that provides hardware-level isolation for multiple applications.

A full emulation of a computer system with its own guest OS running on virtualized hardware.

A physical server dedicated to running a single application in isolation.

What is a common limitation of virtual machines regarding portability?

They cannot be moved between physical servers.

They are tied to hypervisor compatibility.

They cannot run on different operating systems.

They require a container runtime to execute.

Container Versus Virtual Machine JN0-214 Practice Questions (Page 3)

Part of the Cloud Virtualization domain, which makes up ~26% of our current practice bank. Juniper Networks does not publish an official question count, but from its 90-minute exam (~35–60 total, ~9–16 in this domain), expect 1–2 from this objective — we provide 24 practice questions to prepare you well beyond it.
