    AZ-900 · Question 12 · Domain 1.3: Cloud Service Types

    Which TWO of the following are characteristics of Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)? (Select TWO)

    Answer options:

    A.

    You are responsible for managing the operating system.

    B.

    The cloud provider manages the application code.

    C.

    It is typically used for 'lift and shift' migrations.

    D.

    It provides the highest level of abstraction from hardware.

    E.

    You do not need to worry about software updates or patches.

    How to approach this question

    Select the statements that accurately describe the responsibilities and use cases of IaaS.

    Full Answer

    IaaS provides virtualized computing resources. Because you get a virtual machine, you are responsible for the OS and everything installed on it. This makes it perfect for 'lift and shift' migrations where you move an existing server directly to the cloud.

    Common mistakes

    Assuming the cloud provider patches the OS in IaaS. They only patch the physical host.
