Question

your organization has migrated its local sql server database hosted on a virtual machine from on - premises to azure sql database. what type of cloud service does the organization now use? a private cloud b hybrid cloud c none of these d public cloud

Explanation:

Azure SQL Database is a public cloud service. A public cloud is owned by a third - party cloud provider (in this case, Microsoft for Azure) and is made available to the general public or industry groups. It offers on - demand access to resources over the internet. A private cloud is owned and operated by a single organization for its own use. A hybrid cloud combines elements of both public and private clouds. Since the organization has migrated to Azure SQL Database (a public cloud offering), it is not a private or hybrid cloud in the context of this migration (assuming no on - premises resources are still being used in a combined hybrid way as per the question's description).

Answer:

D. Public cloud
