Deploy a Web Application Firewall (WAF) in front of the development servers to filter traffic. -> Incorrect. A WAF is primarily used to protect against web application attacks and would be more relevant for production servers accessible from the internet. It is less effective for restricting access based on IP addresses to development servers within a cloud environment. An Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Load Balancer is set up with three listeners and one comprehensive path route set: Listener 1 • Virtual hostname: none • Default backend set: P • Path route set: PathRouteSetP Listener 2 • Virtual hostname: internal.com • Default backend set: Q • Path route set: PathRouteSetP Listener 3 • Virtual hostname: external.com • Default backend set: R • Path route set: PathRouteSetP Path route set: • Path route set name: PathRouteSetP • Prefix match on path string /api/ routes to backend set Q. • Exact match on path string /home routes to backend set R. Given the configuration above, determine the correct routing for the following URLs: U1: http://internal.com/api/user U2: http://external.com/home Which of the following statements is true?
/api/ prefix match, U2 does not fit this criterion as it matches /home, which should direct it to backend set R, not Q. You are configuring access to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) resources from a corporate network. Which of the following is not a required step for setting up a Site-to-Site VPN connection between your corporate network and OCI?
ensures consistent access control policies across on-premises and cloud environments, enhancing security and simplifying user management. Establish Oracle FastConnect and VMware Hybrid Cloud Extension (HCX) for high -throughput, low - latency connectivity between on-premises and OCI VMware environments. -> Correct. FastConnect and HCX together provide the optimized network infrastructure necessary for extending VMware workloads to the cloud, ensuring performance and reliability. Utilize Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Object Storage for VMware VM files and snapshots, ensuring cost - effective storage and easy scalability. -> Incorrect. VMware environments typically require block storage for VM files for performance reasons; OCI Object Storage is better suited for unstructured data storage. Migrate all VMware workloads to OCI exclusively, using physical -to-virtual (P2V) conversion tools to capitalize on cloud scalability and reduce on-premises infrastructure. -> Incorrect. While cloud migration offers scalability and potential cost savings, a hybrid approach allows for more flexibility and leverages cloud benefits without full infrastructure displacement. Implement a VPN over the public internet for connectivity between on -premises VMware environments and OCI to minimize setup time and costs. -> Incorrect. VPNs over the public internet may not offer the reliability or security required for enterprise VMware workloads, making them less suitable for critical operations compared to FastConnect. As a Cloud Solutions Architect working on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), you are designing a highly available application architecture. Which two statements are false regarding the use of OCI's Load Balancer and Autonomous Database in your design?
OCI's Load Balancer automatically scales its resources up or down based on incoming traffic, ensuring high availability and performance without manual intervention. -> Incorrect. This statement accurately describes the OCI Load Balancer's functionality, highlighting its ability to scale resources automatically based on the traffic demand to ensure high availability. The Autonomous Database automatically backs up your data daily and retains these backups for 60 days, providing a robust data recovery solution. -> Incorrect. The daily backup and 60 -day retention policy of the Autonomous Database are key features designed to provide high resilience and data protection without additional manual setup. As an experienced cloud architect, you're tasked with designing a network architecture for a financial services firm planning to deploy a mission -critical application on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). This application demands high levels of security, isolation, and connectivity between its various components. To meet these stringent requirements, you decide to leverage OCI's Virtual Cloud Network (VCN) and subnets. Which of the following options is not a valid configuration for ensuring the required security, isolation, and connectivity?
When setting up Disaster Recovery (DR) for an Oracle database in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), which DR strategy ensures the highest availability and data protection with the least data loss in the event of a regional outage?
intervals. C. Implement OCI Functions to trigger data copy operations based on a scheduled time. D. Configure a Virtual Cloud Network (VCN) peering between regions to facilitate data replication. Explanation: Use cross -region replication to automatically replicate data across regions. -> Correct. Cross -region replication is a native feature of OCI Object Storage that automatically and asynchronously replicates data across regions, ensuring high availability and disaster recovery without the need for custom solutions. Deploy a custom application on compute instances in each region to manually copy data at regular intervals. -> Incorrect. While feasible, this method is more complex and error -prone compared to using built-in OCI features designed for this purpose. Implement OCI Functions to trigger data copy operations based on a scheduled time. -> Incorrect. OCI Functions can automate tasks, but for data replication across regions, OCI's native cross -region replication is more efficient and less complex. Configure a Virtual Cloud Network (VCN) peering between regions to facilitate data replication. -> Incorrect. VCN peering allows for network connectivity between regions but does not directly facilitate or automate data replication. Your organization is planning to leverage Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) for hosting a new, critical web application that demands high scalability and performance. To meet these requirements, you are considering various OCI services and features for the deployment strategy. Which of the following options is not an appropriate use of OCI services for optimizing the scalability and performance of the web application?
