Business Strategy Design

A company is evaluating its technology roadmap before beginning its cloud journey. The current-state assessment found that a large inventory (5000+) of servers has less than 50% capacity utilization. Which cloud architecture model enables the company to optimize resource utilization?

  • A homogeneous cloud
  • B heterogeneous cloud
  • C hybrid/private cloud
  • D public cloud
Explanation

When an enterprise finds a large fleet of servers running well below capacity, the architectural fix is to apply cloud-style resource pooling and elasticity to the existing estate rather than simply lifting workloads to an external provider. A private or hybrid cloud model virtualizes and pools the on-premises hardware so workloads can be consolidated and dynamically scheduled across the shared capacity, directly raising average utilization while keeping data and control on infrastructure the company already owns and must still capitalize on.
