A small business wants to migrate its on-premises file server to the cloud to reduce hardware maintenance costs. They need low-latency access for local employees and want to avoid egress fees for large data transfers. Which cloud deployment model best meets these requirements?
Trap 1: Public cloud
Public cloud would require data to be stored off-site, increasing latency for local users and incurring egress fees for large transfers.
Trap 2: Private cloud
A private cloud keeps data on-premises, but it doesn't reduce hardware maintenance costs as the business still manages its own infrastructure.
Trap 3: Community cloud
Community cloud is shared among several organizations with common concerns, not typically used for a single business's file server migration.
- A
Public cloud
Why wrong: Public cloud would require data to be stored off-site, increasing latency for local users and incurring egress fees for large transfers.
- B
Private cloud
Why wrong: A private cloud keeps data on-premises, but it doesn't reduce hardware maintenance costs as the business still manages its own infrastructure.
- C
Hybrid cloud
Hybrid cloud allows the business to keep frequently accessed data on-premises (private) for low latency and use public cloud for backup and scalability, reducing egress fees.
- D
Community cloud
Why wrong: Community cloud is shared among several organizations with common concerns, not typically used for a single business's file server migration.
