QUESTION 1:
According to the given definition, which of the following statement(s) is (are) true about dew
computing?
E L
a. Dew computing is a cloud computing paradigm where all computing is done on the cloud
without any reliance on on-premises computers.
T
b. Dew computing is a paradigm where on-premises computers provide functionality that is
P
dependent on cloud services.
c. Dew computing is a paradigm where on-premises computers and cloud services are
N
completely isolated from each other and do not collaborate in any way.
d. Dew computing is a paradigm where on-premises computers provide functionality that is
independent of cloud services and is also collaborative with cloud services.
Answer: d
Detailed Solution: According to the definition given, dew computing is a paradigm where
on-premises computers provide functionality that is independent of cloud services and is also
collaborative with cloud services.
