94 Steve is a software developer for a large retail organization. His CISO returned from a large conference and asked him to clarify exactly what the benefit of a container in software development is over virtual machines. Which of these is the best succinct answer?In a VM, hardware is virtualized to run multiple OS instances. Containers virtualize an OS to run multiple workloads on a single OS instance using a container engine.In a container, hardware is virtualized to run a single OS, where a VM can run multiple applications across multiple assets with a single OS.A VM is virtualized technology, but a container is not.A container is the same thing as a virtual machine, just smaller in size.
95 As a leader in your organization in DevOps, you want to convince your CISO to move toward containerization. Which of these is not an advantage to using containers over VMs?Reduced and simplified security updatesLess code to transfer, migrate, and uploadQuicker spinning up applicationsLarge file size of snapshots
96 At the latest IT department meeting, a discussion on the best virtual methodology centered around using VMs versus containers. Which of these statements best aligns with those two models?VMs are better for lightweight native performance, whereas containers are better for heavyweight limited performance.VMs are for running applications that need all the OS has to offer, whereas containers are better when maximizing number of applications on minimal resources.VMs share the host OS, whereas containers run on their own OS.Containers are fully isolated and more secure, whereas VMs use process-level isolation.
