Cloud Hyperscalers Quiz

• A cloud hyperscaler is a company that provides cloud-based computing, database, security, network, storage, software, and services at a hyper-scale.
• Cloud hyperscalers support cloud edge devices that are located closer to the workloads and computational requirements of their clients, while staying connected to the hardware, software, and services of both public and private clouds.
• Cloud hyperscalers are grouped by their service types. These include Function as a Service (FaaS), Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS).
• All traditional hardware, software, and services fall within the domain of cloud hyperscalers. Customers choose the business functions, solutions, and workloads they wish to move to the cloud and leverage the cloud hyperscalers’ offerings to run their workloads.
• It is important for customers to understand their workload requirements so they can accurately size their cloud requirements and minimize potential financial operations impact from over- or under-provisioned, or over- or under-subscribed cloud services.
• Billing and availability tools provided by cloud hyperscalers contain customer usage data, which customers should utilize.
• Right sizing the use of cloud services and resources begins with understanding the consumption levels of the workloads themselves.

Test your knowledge about cloud hyperscalers and their services, including Function as a Service (FaaS), Software as a Service (SaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). Understand the considerations for workload requirements, billing, and right-sizing cloud services.
