What this test covers
One concept per question. If you can explain each of these without hesitating, you are in good shape on Cloud Fundamentals.
- Zones are independent failure domains within a region
- Billing accounts control invoicing; the resource hierarchy and labels provide cost attribution
- IAM is additive and inherits downward; lower levels cannot subtract an inherited grant
- Commit to the baseline, absorb variability with flexible capacity
- Organisation policy provides preventative guardrails that inherit down the hierarchy
- Modernisation is a spectrum of effort; lift and shift is the fastest and least disruptive
- Shared responsibility: the provider secures the infrastructure, the customer secures their use of it
