Paloalto Networks Practitioner Dumps Questions Answers

Containers are portable and lightweight alternatives to virtual machines that allow developers to package, isolate, and deploy applications across different cloud environments. Containers simplify the building and deploying of cloud native applications by providing consistent and efficient development, testing, and production environments. Containers also offer benefits such as rapid provisioning, high scalability, resource optimization, and security isolation. References:

DevOps is not:

● A combination of the Dev and Ops teams: There still are two teams; they just operate

in a communicative, collaborative way.

● Its own separate team: There is no such thing as a “DevOps engineer.” Although some

companies may appoint a “DevOps team” as a pilot when trying to transition to a

DevOps culture, DevOps refers to a culture where developers, testers, and operations

personnel cooperate throughout the entire software delivery lifecycle.

● A tool or set of tools: Although there are tools that work well with a DevOps model or

help promote DevOps culture, DevOps ultimately is a strategy, not a tool.

● Automation: Although automation is very important for a DevOps culture, it alone does

not define DevOps.

Short-range wireless:

● Adaptive Network Technology+ (ANT+): ANT+ is a proprietary multicast wireless sensor

network technology primarily used in personal wearables, such as sports and fitness sensors.

● Bluetooth/Bluetooth Low-Energy (BLE): Bluetooth is a low-power, short-range

communications technology primarily designed for point-to-point communications between wireless devices in a hub-and-spoke topology. BLE (also known as Bluetooth Smart or Bluetooth 4.0+) devices consume significantly less power than Bluetooth devices and can access the internet directly through 6LoWPAN connectivity.

● Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) over Low-Power Wireless Personal Area Networks

(6LoWPAN): 6LoWPAN allows IPv6 traffic to be carried over low-power wireless mesh

networks. 6LoWPAN is designed for nodes and applications that require wireless internet

connectivity at relatively low data rates in small form factors, such as smart light bulbs

and smart meters.

● Wi-Fi/802.11: The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) defines the 802

LAN protocol standards. 802.11 is the set of standards used for Wi-Fi networks typically

operating in the 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequency bands. The most common implementations

today include:

‒ 802.11n (labeled Wi-Fi 4 by the Wi-Fi Alliance), which operates on both 2.4GHz and 5GHz

bands at ranges from 54Mbps to 600Mbps

‒ 802.11ac (Wi-Fi 5), which operates on the 5GHz band at ranges from 433Mbps to 3.46

Gbps

‒ 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6), which operates on the 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands (and all bands between 1 and 6GHz, when they become available for 802.11 use) at ranges up to 11Gbps

● Z-Wave: Z-Wave is a low-energy wireless mesh network protocol primarily used for home

automation applications such as smart appliances, lighting control, security systems,

smart thermostats, windows and locks, and garage doors.

● Zigbee/802.14: Zigbee is a low-cost, low-power wireless mesh network protocol based on the IEEE 802.15.4 standard. Zigbee is the dominant protocol in the low-power networking market, with a large installed base in industrial environments and smart home products.
