A customer chooses to run on a host that other customers also use, in order to pay less. Which arrangement is that?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
The customer is willing to share the building to keep the rent down. You call that shared resources. A machine nobody else uses, a cloud they own alone, and a hypervisor in their own closet are the more expensive private arrangements.
Full Explanation
Shared resources mean the customer's workload runs on systems that other customers also use, which is the cheaper arrangement they chose. A dedicated host is hardware no other customer uses. Buying it to share and pay less reverses the meaning. A private cloud the customer owns and does not share is the opposite of accepting other tenants. A hypervisor in the customer's closet is equipment they house. It is not the shared host they are renting. Exam caveat: shared hardware still has to separate customer data. Cheaper does not mean one customer can read another's disks. Operational check: confirm the invoice is for a shared plan and that other tenants are expected on the same host. Confirm the plan expects other tenants on the same host. Note the result on the ticket. Check that customer data is still separated even though the host is shared.
