Resumen del Recurso
Pregunta 1
Pregunta
In which scenario is a single-server design most appropriate?
Respuesta
For highly critical commercial applications
For large-scale systems with significant traffic
For small, low-priority tools or personal websites
For applications requiring high availability
Pregunta 2
Pregunta
What is a key drawback of a single-server design for commercial systems?
Respuesta
High cost of scaling
Single point of failure
Complexity of setup
Redundant database connections
Pregunta 3
Pregunta
What does vertical scaling involve?
Respuesta
Adding more servers to distribute the load
Increasing the capacity of an existing server
Implementing a load balancer to manage traffic
Dividing a database into multiple shards
Pregunta 4
Pregunta
What is a limitation of vertical scaling?
Respuesta
It requires complex database partitioning.
It is limited by the maximum capacity of a single server.
It cannot handle stateless requests efficiently.
It increases the number of servers to maintain.
Pregunta 5
Pregunta
How does horizontal scaling differ from vertical scaling?
Respuesta
Horizontal scaling increases the size of servers, while vertical scaling adds more servers.
Horizontal scaling involves adding more servers, while vertical scaling increases the size of existing servers.
Horizontal scaling reduces server maintenance, while vertical scaling increases it.
Horizontal scaling focuses on database optimization, while vertical scaling focuses on application layers.
Pregunta 6
Pregunta
What component is essential for horizontal scaling to distribute traffic across servers?
Respuesta
Database replicas
A load balancer
A central storage system
An additional web server
Pregunta 7
Pregunta
Why must web servers in a horizontally scaled system be stateless?
Respuesta
To ensure they can share storage efficiently
To allow any server to handle any user request independently
To improve CPU utilization across the system
To minimize database load during high traffic
Pregunta 8
Pregunta
What is a primary advantage of horizontal scaling over vertical scaling?
Respuesta
It reduces system complexity.
It eliminates single points of failure.
It is more cost-effective for small-scale systems.
It requires fewer machines to maintain.
Pregunta 9
Pregunta
In which scenario is vertical scaling likely sufficient?
Respuesta
A globally distributed e-commerce platform
A personal website with low traffic
A real-time video streaming service
A high-frequency financial trading application
Pregunta 10
Pregunta
What is a downside of horizontal scaling?
Respuesta
It limits the ability to add more servers.
It increases the likelihood of server failure.
It introduces more components to maintain.
It restricts redundancy in the system.
Pregunta 11
Pregunta
What design principle should guide the choice of system architecture?
Respuesta
Prioritize redundancy regardless of cost.
Build the simplest architecture that meets the requirements.
Always opt for horizontal scaling, even for small systems.
Avoid using load balancers to minimize complexity.
