• Increasing the processing power of a single server

• Distributing the workload across multiple servers

• None of the above

Which type of scaling is more suitable for handling sudden spikes in traffic?

• Vertical scaling

• Horizontal scaling

• both vertical and horizontal

• none of the above

What is a virtual machine (VM) in virtualization?

• A physical server dedicated to running cloud applications

• A software emulation of a computer system within another computer system

What is the purpose of a hypervisor in virtual machine technology?

• To manage network connectivity for virtual machines

• To manage network connectivity for virtual machines

• To allocate and manage physical resources for virtual machines

• To encrypt data stored within virtual machines

What is the role of a Type 1 hypervisor?

• It runs directly on the host hardware and manages virtual machines

• It runs as a software application within an existing operating system

• It provides network virtualization for virtual machines

• It ensures data integrity and security within a virtualized environment

What are the two types of hypervisors?

• Type A and Type B

• Bare-metal and hosted

• Virtual and physical

• Open-source and proprietary

Which of the following statements is true about Type 1 hypervisors?

• They require an underlying operating system to function.

• They provide direct hardware access to virtual machines.

• They are primarily used for personal computer virtualization.

• They have higher compatibility with different guest operating systems.
