ITPEC FE Morning April 2018 Question 64
ITPEC FE Morning April 2018 — Question 64 of 80
Hosting Service — what the service provider offers
A hosting service means a service provider prepares and maintains servers, then lends the utilization rights to users. The provider handles hardware, network, and physical infrastructure; the user gets access to use the server.
Why not others:
- a) Incorrect — hosting does support dedicated (exclusive) server use for a single user (dedicated hosting is a common offering)
- b) Incorrect — operations management (monitoring, incident handling) is the provider's responsibility, not the user's
- d) Incorrect — this describes colocation, where users bring their own servers to the provider's facility
Key rule: Hosting = provider owns and manages the server, user rents usage rights; Colocation = user owns the server, provider supplies facility and network.
