Certification     CompTIA     CompTIA Cloud Essentials     CLO-002: CompTIA Cloud Essentials+

In this course, you'll explore cloud storage in-depth, including standard storage systems and providers, thin and thick storage provisioning, cold, warm, and hot storage, and the different storage tiers.


Next, you'll discover the methods and technologies used to protect data in the cloud, the differences between synchronous and asynchronous replications, and RAID.


You'll learn about storage security threats and vulnerabilities and the mechanism used to secure data in transit and at rest.



Objectives

CompTIA Cloud Essentials+ (CLO-002): Cloud Storage Technologies

  • discover the key concepts covered in this course
  • identify the features and capabilities of cloud storage that facilitate reliable and efficient persistence implementation
  • describe the architecture and structure model of cloud storage along with the advantages they provide to users and enterprises
  • list the common storage systems and describe how they attach and are made accessible locally as well as in the cloud
  • describe the concept of storage provisioning and classify the differences between thin and thick storage provisioning
  • recall the different storage tiers that can be defined and assigned to fulfil the levels of storage required by cloud consumers for persistence
  • recognize the methods and technologies used to protect data in the cloud and differentiate between synchronous and asynchronous replications
  • describe the concept and levels of RAID along with the differences between RAID levels
  • identify the security threats and vulnerabilities of storage devices along with the mechanism used by cloud providers to secure data while in transit and at rest on these storage devices
  • list the prominent types of storage provided by various cloud providers and recognize the approaches to accessing data from cloud data storage
  • distinguish between cold, warm, and hot storage along with their usage scenarios
  • recognize the different types of storage gateways that help connect on-premises applications with cloud storage and cache data locally for low-latency access
  • attach available EBS volumes to one or more instances that are in the same availability zone as the volume
  • describe the features and benefits of Software-defined Storage
  • recall the concept and benefits of a content distribution network and describe how content distribution network services can help reduce loading duration
  • summarize the key concepts covered in this course
