Question 15

Correct

Points out of 1.00

A client is discussing their need to manage the data being

collected by sensors at the edge, across a broad expanse of
property. They explain that in some of the farther locations, it
can be difficult to obtain an internet signal, and this slows
their ability to complete their work. They ask you how can IBM
Power systems overcome this issue?

Suggest the client make an investment into improving the

network, so they have a stronger signal to utilize for their
sensors.
You ask them why they are deploying sensors out of range
of a strong network connect.
Recommend they build out smaller data centers in the
remote locations to mitigate this issue.

You explain that once an IBM Power system has been 

activated it will initiate a “call home” alert that will
send IBM an update. Even if the network connect is
lost, the system will continue to work.
