A. Create a self-signed certificate and it's corresponding key. Create a Kubernetes secret using the certificate and the key. Then add these an notations to the Kubernetes service:
annotations:
service.beta.kubernetes.io/oci-load-balancer-ssl-ports: "443"
service.beta.kubernetes.io/oci-load-balancer-security-list-management-mode:"Frontend"
B. Generate a self-signed certificate using Let's Encrypt. Use that certificate on OCI Load Balancer. Create the Kubernetes service usingthis load balancer.
C. Add these annotationsto the Kubernetes service:
annotations:
service.beta.kubernetes.io/oci-load-balancer-ssl-ports: "443"
service.beta.kubernetes.io/oci-load-balancer-ssl-secret-key: ssl-secret-key
D. Create a self-signed certificate and it's corresponding key. Create a Kubernetes secret using then add these annotationsto the Kubernetes service.

Question 2
Your company developed a function that needs to access the Oracle Database to inject some data to it at runtime. You are tasked to move this function to the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) and use Oracle Functions and access Oracle Autonomous Database. You created a Dockerfile below to run this function, however, you are getting this error "cx_Oracle.DatabaseError: ORA""12560: TNS:protocol adapter error".
What should you do to make sure that Oracle Functions can run this Dockerfile properly? (Choose the best answer.)
A. You ned to run this Container as root, so add this line: USER root
B. Use """"privileged flag while running the Docker container to add runtime privilege
C. Add these two lines to your Dockerfile: groupadd """"gid 1000 fn && \ adduser """"uid 1000 """"gid fn fn
D. Use """"cap""add=ALL flag while running the Docker container to add runtime capability
Question 3
Which three scenarios are suitable for the use of Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Autonomous Transaction Processing - Serverless (ATP-S) deployment? (Choose three.)
A. A well-established, online auction marketplace is running an application where there is database usage 24x7, but also has peaks of activity that are hard to predict. When the peaks happen, the total activities may reach 3 times the normal activity level.
B. A manufacturing company is running Oracle E-Business Suite application on-premises. They are looking to move this application to OCI and they want to use a managed database offering for their database tier.
C. A midsize company is considering migrating its legacy on-premises MongoDB database to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). The database has significantly higher workloads on weekends than weekdays.

E. A developer working on an internal project needs to use a database during work hours but doesn't need it during nights or weekends. The project budget requires her to keep costs low.
Question 4
A startup company is looking for a solution for processing of data transmitted by the IOT devices fitted to transport vehicles that carry frozen foods. The data should be consumed and processed in real time. The processed data should be archived to OCI Object Storage bucket. and use Autonomous Data warehouse (ADW) to handle analytics.
Which architecture will help you meet this requirement?
A. Use OCI Streaming Service to collect the incoming biometric data. Use an open source Hadoop cluster to analyze the data horn streaming service. Store the results to OCI Autonomous Data warehouse (ADW) to handle complex analytics
B. Create an OCI Object Storage bucket to collect the incoming biometric data from the smart pet collar Fetch the data horn OC\ Object storage to OCI Autonomous Data Warehouse (ADW) every day and run analytics Jobs with it
C. Use OCI Streaming Service to collect the incoming biometric data. Use Oracle Functions to process the date and show the results on a real-time dashboard and store the results lo OCI Object Storage Store the data In OCI Autonomous Data warehouse (ADW) to handle analytics.
D. Launch an open source Hadoop cluster to collect the Incoming biometrics data Use an Open source Fluentd cluster to analyze the- data me results to OCI Autonomous Transaction Processing (ADW)to handle complex analytics
Question 5
You are tasked with building a highly available, fault tolerant web application for your current employer. The security team is concerned about an increase in malicious web-based attacks across the internet and asked what you can do to add a higher level of security to the website.
How should you architect the solution on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) to meet all requirements defined by your organization? (Choose the best answer.)
A. Deploy at least 3 web application servers, each in a different fault domain, using a regional private subnet. Place a public load balancer in a regional public subnet and create a backend set for all of the web application servers. Create a Geolocation steering policy in Traffic Management and add an answer pool that directs to the public IP address of the load balancer. Configure a global catch-all rule to use this answer pool.
B. Deploy at least 3 web application servers, each in a different fault domain, using a regional public subnet. Ensure that each web application server is assigned a public IP address. Deploy a Web Application Firewall (WAF) and configure one Origin for each public IP address.
C. Deploy at least 3 web application servers, each in a different fault domain, using a regional private subnet. Place a public load balancer in a regional public subnet and create a backend set for all of the web application servers. Deploy a Web Application Firewall (WAF) and configure the load balancer public IP address as the origin.
D. Deploy at least 3 web application servers, each in a different fault domain, using a regional public subnet. Use the OCI Traffic Management service to create a load balancing policy that will resolve DNS evenly between all web servers.
