Study Notes

  • A cloud can be described as a group of interconnected servers, located in one or more datacenters.
  • Public clouds also have some disadvantages, such as the lack of control over the underlay infrastructure used.
  • There are two main types of clouds: public and private. Private clouds are more expensive, but have more control over the underlay infrastructure.
  • Cloud deployment methods include: IaaS, CaaS, PaaS, FaaS, and SaaS.
  • Availability zones are a unique physical location within an Azure region, and each availability zone is made up of one or more data centers.
  • Azure hierarchy includes the tenant at the top, and a number of subscriptions beneath it. Each subscription contains a number of resource groups.
  • A cloud customer is responsible for securing the remaining elements of the cloud: network settings, applications, and data.
  • The Fortinet Security Fabric enables the following services and capabilities: native integration, broad protection, management and automation.
  • Azure includes a variety of network components, including a virtual network, subnet, network interface, Azure load balancer, VM scales set, virtual network gateway, and routing table.
  • You can connect VNETs to each other using Azure VNET peering or Azure VPN gateways.
  • Azure ARP processes manage all ARP traffic through a service that performs both switching and routing operations, depending on the destination address.
