Life Cycle of a Cloud Solution

The cloud solution life cycle describes the stages from:

Which AWS service provides serverless computing (run code without managing servers)?

An on-demand instance costs $0.10/hour running continuously for a year (8,760 hours); a 1-year reserved instance costs $500 flat. Approximately how much is saved by reserving?

Controlling who can access cloud resources and what actions they may perform is done by:

Which service automatically creates/manages resources using Infrastructure as Code?

In which stage are the deployment model and service model selected?

The FINAL stage of the cloud solution life cycle is:

Which activity belongs to the Retirement stage?

An independent third party that assesses a cloud's security, privacy, and performance is the:

The party providing the wire-level connectivity that delivers cloud services is the:

Even in the cloud, we must define the type and amount of (virtual) hardware an application needs.

Amazon EC2 lets users rent resizable virtual servers called instances.

A VPC is a logically isolated virtual network within a public cloud.

Auto Scaling keeps resources fixed regardless of workload.

Design includes choosing availability zones and planning backup/disaster recovery.

The life cycle has stages in the order: Planning, Design, Development, Testing, Deployment, Operations, Optimization, Retirement.

Load and stress testing occur during the Deployment stage, not Testing.

A cloud resource administrator can belong to the consumer, the provider, or a contracted third party.

A cloud broker manages and negotiates cloud-service usage between consumers and providers.

The organizational boundary is a logical perimeter, while the trust boundary is physical.
