Virtualization
This type of hypervisor runs directly on the host's hardware, without needing an underlying operating system.
(What is a Type 1 hypervisor?)
This device acts as an intermediary between users and the internet. Often used to improve security and/or performance.
(What is a proxy server?)
This type of network is used for high-speed centralized storage, often in data centers.
(What is a Storage Area Network (SAN)?)
This cloud computing model provides virtualized computing resources such as servers, storage, and networking over the internet.
(What is Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)?)
This feature allows users to schedule when Windows updates are installed to avoid interruptions.
(What is Windows Update?)
This type of hypervisor runs as an application within an existing operating system.
(What is a Type 2 hypervisor?)
This network appliance helps balance traffic across multiple servers to ensure high availability.
(What is a load balancer?)
This low-range network type connects personal devices such as smartphones and wearables.
(What is a Personal Area Network (PAN)?)
In this cloud service model, users access fully managed applications over the internet without worrying about maintenance or infrastructure.
(What is Software as a Service (SaaS)?)
Found in the Control Panel, this tool allows users to adjust power settings to optimize battery life or performance.
(What is Power Options?)
This virtualization technology allows multiple isolated applications to share the same operating system kernel rather than using full virtual machines.
(What is containerization?)
hese security appliances combine multiple protective functions, such as firewalls and antivirus filtering.
(What is a Unified Threat Management (UTM) system?)
A small office/home office (SOHO) network typically uses this type of network hardware instead of enterprise-grade equipment.
(What are consumer-grade routers and switches?)
This cloud computing model allows companies to run their applications on a combination of on-premises and public cloud resources.
(What is Hybrid Cloud?)
This built-in Windows feature allows users to uninstall or modify applications installed on their system.
(What are Apps, Programs, and Features?)
This concept in virtualization ensures that virtual machines are isolated from one another, preventing one from affecting the performance of another.
(What is sandboxing?)
I run on port 143
What is IMAP
Kind of like a switch but does not separate broadcast domains
What is a hub
This cloud deployment model is used exclusively by one organization and provides greater security and control over data.
(What is Private Cloud?)
Found in the Control Panel, this tool allows users to view and manage installed drivers and hardware components.
(What is Device Manager?)
This virtualization feature allows multiple virtual machines to appear as if they have their own separate network, even though they share the same physical infrastructure.
(What is virtual networking?)
What is https
This network device can operate in both managed and unmanaged modes, allowing for greater control over traffic.
(What is a managed switch?)
This cloud computing model allows companies to run their applications on a combination of on-premises and public cloud resources.
(What is Hybrid Cloud?)
This Windows tool allows administrators to configure and manage advanced system settings, such as security policies and system performance.
(What is Administrative Tools or Windows Management Tools?)
