1
When designing a fault-tolerant containerized application for the cloud, which architectural pattern is primarily implemented to prevent a failure in one component from cascading by isolating resources (like CPU/memory) into distinct, independent pools?
Question 1
2
In a globally distributed relational database managed as a cloud service, what is a primary advantage of employing an eventual consistency model over strong consistency?
Question 2

Question 3
4
A monolithic application with a relational database is experiencing high read latency on its user profile table due to analytical reporting queries. Which cloud database scaling strategy most directly addresses this issue without major application re-architecture?
Question 4
5
Within the context of cloud-native design on Kubernetes, which specific pattern is characterized by deploying a secondary container in the same pod to handle cross-cutting concerns like logging or monitoring for the primary application container?
Question 5
6
When diagnosing an unexpected network connectivity failure between two subnets in an AWS VPC, which specific service or feature provides the most detailed log data about accepted and rejected traffic at the network interface level?
Question 6
7
According to the CAP theorem, how does a distributed cloud database system formally classified as 'CP' (Consistent and Partition-tolerant) behave during a network partition event?
Question 7
8
For a critical, user-facing microservice, which deployment strategy is specifically designed to mitigate risk by initially releasing a new version to a very small subset of production traffic, monitoring it closely, and then gradually increasing the traffic share if metrics are satisfactory?
Question 8
9
Which Azure service, central to Microsoft's hybrid and multi-cloud strategy as of 2026, is designed to allow the management of virtual machines, Kubernetes clusters, and databases located on other cloud platforms or in on-premises data centers from within the Azure portal?
Question 9
10
In a microservices architecture using JWT tokens for service-to-service authentication, which specific claim within a received JWT must a service validate to ensure the token is intended for its own use and not for a different service?
Question 10
