Unit 5 Flashcards
What are the factors that impact Data Center Design
- The location of the data center and the users of the cloud
- Contingency, fail over, and redundancy
- The type of services (PaaS,IaaS, SaaS) the cloud will provide
- Operating standards
What are some of the areas you must consider for planning a Data Center Design?
- Automating Service enablement
- Consolidation of monitoring capabilities
- Reducing Mean Time To Repair (MTTR)
- Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF)

What minimum effective (clear) height should be provided for raised-floor installations?
24 inches
What can hot spots be promoted by?
Under-floor and over-head obstructions and cable congestion in raised-floor plenums

- COntrol
- Log Data
- PCI-DSS Access
- Upgrades and Change
- Failover Technology
- Compliance
- ; Regulations

What are some the key subsystems that are recommended for monitoring in cloud environments?
- Network
- Disk (Storage)
- Memory (RAM)
- CPU (Processing)
What are the phases of Digital Forensics?
Collection->Examination->Analysis->Reporting
What is DRS?
Distributed Resource Scheduling (DRS)/Compute Resource Scheduling - provides highly available resources to your workloads, balance workloads for optimal performance, and scale and manage computing service without disrupting service
What is the difference between Uptime and Availability?
A system can be up but not available, as in the case of a network outage. Focus on ensuring that all required systems are available as stipulated in their SLAs.
