What should Jason do to remedy this issue?

A. Improve the performance of the network storage

B. Increase the bandwidth of the network connection

C. Update the NIC driver

D. None of these

Lisa’s organization has multiple servers to cater to the needs of different businesses and clients. Each of these servers runs different applications in order to keep them isolated from each other. The server room incurs a huge cost because of the number of servers owing to the massive cooling systems, server maintenance, data center footprint, and quicker server provisioning. An audit of the resources discovered that most of the servers are idle two-thirds of business hours since these servers are dedicated towards faster recovery during disasters and the isolation of applications. Lisa is looking for a solution to bring down the cost of maintaining these servers, optimize the use of resources, and save money on the energy spent to keep these servers cool. Which solution can meet all these needs of Lisa?

A. Virtual Desktop Infrastructure

B. Operating System Virtualization

C. Server Replication

D. Server Virtualization

Zoe is a fashion designer who owns an online retail store. She was recently named ‘The Best Upcoming Fashion Designer of the Year’ by a highly popular fashion magazine. Due to this recognition, the web traffic to her site greatly increased. However, the server on which her website was housed could not handle the high amount of web traffic, which led to the crashing of the website. To resolve this issue, Zoe purchased two additional servers. Using a solution, she distributed the burden from the web traffic between the three servers, which helped in maximizing the efficiency of the servers. Which solution did Zoe use?

A. Point in Time Recovery

B. Load Balancing

C. Clustering

D. High-Availability
