What is the primary purpose of Terraform?

To monitor the performance of running applications in real time.

To automate the deployment of application code to servers.

To provision and manage infrastructure as code across multiple cloud providers.

To package applications into containers for deployment.

A company is migrating its infrastructure to the cloud and wants to use Terraform to manage resources. They have a mix of workloads: some are predictable and run 24/7, while others are batch jobs that run for a few minutes a few times a day. The company wants to minimize costs while maintaining the ability to manage all resources with Terraform. Which approach best balances cost and management?

Use spot instances for the predictable workloads and on-demand for batch jobs.

Use on-demand instances for all workloads to avoid commitment.

Use reserved instances for the predictable workloads and serverless functions for the batch jobs, managing both with Terraform.

Use a single large VM for all workloads to simplify management.

A company is deploying a hybrid cloud using OpenNebula. They have a private cloud on-premises and want to use a public cloud provider for burst capacity. The team needs to manage both environments from a single interface. However, the public cloud provider they want to use is not natively supported by OpenNebula's cloud bursting feature. What is the most practical approach to achieve hybrid cloud management?

Use Terraform to manage the public cloud resources and OpenNebula for the private cloud, integrating them with a custom script.

Manually manage the public cloud resources using the provider's native console and use OpenNebula only for the private cloud.

Use OpenNebula's hybrid cloud feature with a supported public cloud provider, or use a different public cloud provider that is supported.

Deploy OpenStack instead, which has broader public cloud integration.
