Question

Difficulty: MediumCloud Models (Public, Private, Hybrid, Multi-cloud)

A video game development studio hosts its multiplayer matchmaking servers on Microsoft Azure and its player profiles database on Amazon Web Services (AWS), without using any on-premises infrastructure. Is it true that this deployment represents a hybrid cloud model?

Answer: Answer

Answer

False (The statement is false because the deployment utilizes multiple public cloud providers without any on-premises or private cloud integration, making it a multi-cloud model rather than a hybrid cloud model.)
The correct answer is False because the studio utilizes two distinct public cloud providers (Azure and AWS) without integrating them with an on-premises datacenter or private cloud, which defines a multi-cloud model.

Step-by-Step Solution

1
Analyze the infrastructure components described in the scenario.
The studio utilizes Microsoft Azure and Amazon Web Services (AWS), both of which are public cloud providers, and has retired all of its on-premises servers.
Identifying the types of cloud environments involved is the first step in classifying the overall cloud model.
2
Compare the identified configuration against the definitions of hybrid cloud and multi-cloud models.
A hybrid cloud model requires combining public cloud resources with private cloud or on-premises infrastructure. A multi-cloud model involves using services from two or more public cloud providers. Because no on-premises or private cloud infrastructure is present, the setup is classified as multi-cloud.
This comparison evaluates whether the statement in the question is true or false.
