- Bcolor schemes and user interface animations
- Cthe number of developers and daily stand-up meetings
46When you’re deploying an application, a service, or any IT resources, it’s important the resources are:
- Aavailable when needed.
- Bpainted in bright colors.
- Clocated near the company cafeteria.
47High availability focuses on ensuring:
- Amaximum availability, regardless of disruptions or events that may occur.
- Bthat employees get free coffee every day.
- Cwebsites have the flashiest colors.
48When you’re architecting your solution, you’ll need to account for:
- Aservice availability guarantees.
- Bwhich TV shows the team likes best.
- Cthe paint color of server racks.
49Azure is a highly available cloud environment with:

51Scalability refers to:
- Athe ability to adjust resources to meet demand.
- Bhow well a company’s logo fits on a website.
- Cthe color of the cables in a data center.
52If you suddenly experience peak traffic and your systems are overwhelmed, the ability to scale means you can:
- Aadd more resources to better handle the increased demand.
- Bcall your friends for moral support.
- Cplay loud music to distract users.
53The other benefit of scalability is that:
- Ayou aren't overpaying for services.
- Bservers can learn to dance.
- Cyou always have to buy extra hardware.
54Question
Because the cloud is a consumption-based model, you only pay for:- Awhat you use.
- Bhow many lights are on in the data center.
- Cthe number of songs on your playlist.
55If demand drops off, you can:
- Areduce your resources and thereby reduce your costs.
- Bhire a magician to boost traffic.
- Cpaint your servers neon green.
56Scaling generally comes in two varieties:
- Avertical and horizontal.
- Bupside-down and backwards.
- Csmall and extra-large.
57Vertical scaling is focused on:
- Aincreasing or decreasing the capabilities of resources.
- Badding disco lights to server racks.
- Cswitching languages every hour.
58Horizontal scaling is:
- Aadding or subtracting the number of resources.
- Bchanging the shape of the cloud logo.
- Cwriting server names in fancy fonts.
59With vertical scaling, if you were developing an app and you needed more processing power, you could vertically scale up to:
- Aadd more CPUs or RAM to the virtual machine.
- Binstall a bigger screen on your laptop.
- Cchange the background color of your code editor.
60Conversely, if you realized you had over-specified the needs, you could vertically scale down by:
- Alowering the CPU or RAM specifications.
- Bpainting your servers red.
- Cdeleting all your files for fun.
61With horizontal scaling, if you suddenly experienced a steep jump in demand, your deployed resources could be:
- Ascaled out (either automatically or manually).
- Breplaced with entirely new programming languages.
- Cpainted in bright neon colors.
62For example, you could add additional virtual machines or containers,
- Ascaling out.
- Bsinging a song to the servers
- Cchanging your company logo to green.
63In the same manner, if there was a significant drop in demand, deployed resources could be:
- Arepainted in gold.
- Bscaled in (either automatically or manually), scaling in.
- Creplaced with comic books.
