1Z0-1151-25 Question 6
Single answerYour organization plans to integrate a new data analytics platform hosted in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) with specialized AI/ML services in another public cloud. The goal is to maintain strong security, achieve low-latency data transfers, and keep cloud governance processes streamlined. Which approach should you prioritize to satisfy these requirements when establishing connectivity between the two clouds?
- A
Establish a site-to-site VPN over the public Internet to connect both clouds
- B
Use dedicated inter-cloud connectivity services (e.g., OCI FastConnect and the other cloud� direct connection) to create a private, high-speed link
- C
Deploy a separate on-premises gateway that routes traffic between OCI and the other cloud
- D
Leverage ad hoc SSH tunnels and application-layer encryption to transfer data
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Leveraging dedicated internetworking through OCI FastConnect and the other cloud� respective direct connection offerings is generally the most efficient, secure, and scalable method for multicloud environments. It minimizes latency, secures data in transit with private links, and simplifies operational governance. Refer to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure FastConnect documentation for detailed connectivity best practices.
- A. Incorrect.
Option 1: Establishing a VPN over the public Internet can provide encryption but often introduces higher latency and potential bandwidth constraints compared to dedicated connections. This might not adequately handle workloads that need consistent, low-latency performance.
- B. Correct.
Option 2: Dedicated inter-cloud connectivity services, such as OCI FastConnect and the other cloud� equivalent (e.g., AWS Direct Connect or Azure ExpressRoute), provide secure, predictable, and high-bandwidth connections. This approach significantly reduces latency issues and simplifies governance by using well-defined private circuits rather than going over the public Internet.
- C. Incorrect.
Option 3: While routing traffic through on-premises infrastructure can centralize some controls, it typically adds unnecessary networking complexity, potential latency, and additional hardware costs. It� not the most direct or efficient path for cloud-to-cloud integration.
- D. Incorrect.
Option 4: Application-layer encryption (e.g., SSH tunnels) can secure traffic, but it� typically best for smaller, ad hoc workflows rather than robust, high-throughput integrations. This approach also forces teams to manage encryption layers manually, complicating governance and scaling.
