Cloud Storage Types
Performance & Availability
100

 This encrypted connection allows remote users to securely access cloud resources over the internet.

What is a VPN?  

100

This system translates domain names into IP addresses.

What is DNS?

100

This protects networks by filtering incoming and outgoing traffic based on security rules.

What is a Firewall?

100

This storage type is best for unstructured data like images and videos.

What is Object Storage?

100

This metric defines how quickly systems must be restored after a disaster.

What is RTO?

200

This private, dedicated connection improves performance and reduces latency when connecting to the cloud.

What is Direct Connect?

200

This technology manages and controls networks centrally using software rather than hardware.

What is Software-Defined Networking (SDN)?

200

This model defines how security responsibilities are shared between the CSP and the customer.

What is the Shared Responsibility Model?

200

This storage type behaves like a traditional hard drive for virtual machines.

What is Block Storage?

200

This metric defines the maximum acceptable data loss measured in time.

What is RPO?

300

This protocol ensures secure communication for web traffic.

What is HTTPS?

300

This spreads traffic across multiple servers to improve availability and performance.

What is Load Balancing?

300

This ensures systems remain operational even when a failure occurs.

What is High Availability?

300

This storage type allows multiple users to access shared files.

What is File Storage?

300

This feature ensures content is delivered faster by caching it closer to users.

What is a CDN?

400

This access method allows administrators to securely manage cloud servers using a command-line interface.

What is SSH?

400

This cloud feature allows users to instantly scale resources up or down.

What is Elasticity?

400

This involves duplicating components or data to prevent system failure.

What is Redundancy?

400

This technique reduces storage usage by eliminating duplicate data.

What is Deduplication?

400

This storage tier is optimized for frequently accessed data.

What is Hot Storage? 


500

This remote access protocol is commonly used to manage Windows-based cloud systems.

What is RDP?

500

This type of access allows users to provision resources without provider interaction.

What is Self-Service?

500

This process restores data and services after a disruption.

What is Disaster Recovery?

500

This method reduces file size to save storage space.

What is Compression?

500

This storage tier is optimized for infrequently accessed data.

What is Cold Storage?
