A startup company began operations with employees working from home on individual workstations. As demand for their services increased, the company faced rapidly increasing capital expenditure costs to build out an on-premises model. Instead, they opted for a cloud-based platform that can scale rapidly to meet their exact requirements. The new license structure is billed monthly based on the number of employees using the platform.
Which licensing models apply? (Select two.)
Incorrect answer:
Perpetual
Volume-based
Per-User
Subscription

Explanation​

Click to expand...
The two applicable licensing models in this scenario are:

  1. Per-User: The billing is based on the number of employees using the platform, which aligns with the per-user model where each user incurs a charge.
  2. Subscription: The platform is billed monthly, fitting the subscription model where services or software are paid for on a recurring basis, typically monthly or annually.
The other two options, Perpetual and Volume-based, do not apply. Perpetual involves a one-time payment for a software license, and Volume-based refers to pricing based on the total quantity of resources used, rather than the number of users or a subscription plan.

EcoTech Solutions, a medium-sized company specializing in sustainable technologies, has been experiencing challenges with its cloud infrastructure, including frequent downtime, security vulnerabilities, and compliance issues. The in-house IT team is skilled but overwhelmed by the increasing demands of managing the cloud environment. The company is considering outsourcing its cloud services to a Managed Service Provider (MSP) and needs to analyze the potential impacts on its operations.Analyze the potential impacts of outsourcing cloud services to an MSP for EcoTech Solutions.
Which of the following analyses best captures the potential outcomes?


Relying on an MSP will reduce the workload on the in-house IT team, but it will not address downtime issues as MSPs do not handle operational aspects of cloud services.

Using an MSP will allow the in-house IT team to focus on strategic initiatives, but it will lead to a complete loss of control over the cloud infrastructure and make the company entirely dependent on the MSP.

Outsourcing to an MSP will completely eliminate all security vulnerabilities and compliance issues, ensuring a fully secure and compliant cloud environment.
An MSP can provide specialized expertise in cloud management, which can reduce downtime and improve security and compliance, but it may require a significant initial investment and ongoing costs.
