QUESTION 1
What are two examples of serverless computing frameworks?
(Select two.)

https://www.gratisexam.com/

A. AWS EC2
B. OpenWhisk
C. AWS Blueshift
D. Azure Automation
E. Google Cloud Functions

Correct Answer: BE
Section: (none)
Explanation

Explanation/Reference:
The IBM OpenWhisk serverless architecture accelerates development as a set of small, distinct, and independent actions. By abstracting away infrastructure,
OpenWhisk frees members of small teams to rapidly work on different pieces of code simultaneously, keeping the overall focus on creating user experiences
customers want.

Google Cloud Functions Beta is a serverless environment to build and connect cloud services.

Incorrect Answers:
A, C: AWS Lambda is serverless computing framework, but AWS EC2 and AWS Blueshift are not.
Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) is a web service that provides secure, resizable compute capacity in the cloud. It is designed to make web-scale
cloud computing easier for developers.

Amazon EC2’s simple web service interface allows you to obtain and configure capacity with minimal friction. It provides you with complete control of your
computing resources and lets you run on Amazon’s proven computing environment.

AWS Blueshift is a standalone service written in Clojure (a dialect of Lisp that targets the JVM) that is expected to be deployed on a server. It is configured to watch
an S3 bucket; when it detects new data files and a corresponding Blueshift manifest it will perform an upsert transaction for all the files with the additional benefit of
being a single import for a large number of files.

QUESTION 3
An e-commerce web site currently consists of a 2-tier web application (app server + DB) deployed on IBM Cloud: 1 webapp instance for the Java front-end and 1
Cloudant instance for the DB.

Immediately after deployment on Bluemix, the application fails to start. When reviewing the application logs the following excerpt is found:

App instance exited with guid 549fb650-8ded-43aa-b895-f230692be4b0 payload:

{... "index"=>0, "reason"=>"CRASHED", "exit_status"=>255,
"exit_description"=>"out of memory",...}

How can the problem be fixed?

A. It looks like an internal Bluemix problem, open a ticket with IBM Support so they can fix it for you.
B. Use the IBM Static Analyzer for Bluemix to run a static code analysis on the entire web application to identify memory leaks.
C. Not enough memory is allocated to the application. Increase the memory either via the command line, in the manifest.yml file, or through the Bluemix console.
D. The application is overloaded with more requests than it can handle. Increase the number of instances either via the command line, in the manifest.yml file or

https://www.gratisexam.com/
 through the Bluemix console.

Correct Answer: C
Section: (none)
Explanation

Explanation/Reference:
As the application fails to start the most likely cause of the problem is that the application does not have enough memory.

Note: Receiving an OutOfMemoryError normally means one of two things:

1. You heap size is not large enough for the memory requirement of the application.
2. You have a memory leak

The quickest thing to try would be to increase the memory allowance for your application, which will also increase the Java heap size for you. You can do this using
a "memory" entry in the manifest.yml.

For the second, you really need to generate a heapdump so that you can analyse the problem using Memory Analyzer.

QUESTION 4
Which two of the following can be performed directly with the IBM Cloud Functions CLI plug-in? (Select two.)

A. Add ACL to a package.

B. Create package bindings.
C. List entities in a package.
D. SSH into the server running an action.
E. Encrypt code associated with an action.

Correct Answer: BC
Section: (none)
Explanation

Explanation/Reference:
B: Although you can use the entities in a package directly, you might find yourself passing the same parameters to the action every time. You can simplify the
process by binding to a package and specifying default parameters, which are inherited by the actions in the package.

Example: Bind to the /whisk.system/samples package and set a default place parameter value.

wsk package bind /whisk.system/samples valhallaSamples --param place Valhalla

https://www.gratisexam.com/
ok: created binding valhallaSamples

C: Several packages are registered with Cloud Functions. You can get a list of packages in a namespace, list the entities in a package, and get a description of the
individual entities in a package.

Example: Get a list of packages in the /whisk.system namespace.

wsk package list /whisk.system

Note: Using the Cloud Functions CLI

Once the environment is configured, you can use the Cloud Functions CLI to perform the following tasks:
Run your code snippets, or actions, on Cloud Functions
Use triggers and rules to enable your actions to respond to events.
Learn how packages bundle actions and configure external events sources.
Explore the catalog of packages and enhance your applications with external services, such as a Cloudant event source.
