quiz!

Question 1

Correct

Points out of 1.00

Sometimes you run into clients who indicate they want to


acquire on-premises storage but pay for it as an operational
expense rather than a capital expense. How could you help
them?

Explain the financial benefits of using OpenShift and


open-source Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

Describe IBM Container Storage Interface and/or IBM


Storage Virtualize.

Gently push them to put everything in the cloud and use


Storage Virtualize for Public Cloud.
Talk about IBM Storage-as-a-Service and/or IBM 
Storage Utility Offering.
Question 2

Correct

When it comes to selling storage for hybrid cloud and data


resiliency, what is the one thing that seems to be universally
agreed upon that shouldn’t be part of the discussion?

Promote infrastructure density.


Promote data availability.

Promote Speeds and Feeds. 


Promote cloud pricing.

Question 3

Correct

Points out of 1.00

When it comes to selling storage for hybrid cloud and data


resiliency, what is the one thing that shouldn’t be part of the
discussion?

Don’t spend a lot of time talking about Speeds and 


Feeds.

Don't talk to organizations about cloud-like pricing

Don't discuss infrastructure density

Don't spend time trying to sell data availability


Question 4

Incorrect

A seller is speaking with a client who is skeptical about the


claim that IBM Easy Tier can speed things up with only a small
quantity of high-speed flash storage. What can the seller tell
them to help them better understand how it works?

By moving all the infrequently accessed data in the 


system to the slowest storage tiers, the data that is left
will be able to sit on high-speed tiers.

Because with Policies it is possible for a storage


administrator to tell it how to optimize the small amount of
flash in the system.

When there is data in a LUN and only part of the LUN is


getting heavily used, then only that part of the LUN gets
moved to the faster tier.

Sellers are allowed to simply cede this point and talk to


clients about something else where the seller can impress
them with his, or her, knowledge.

Question 5

Correct

Points out of 1.00

In talking with clients, a seller realizes that discussions around


helping developers build once and deploy anywhere seems to
be well received. What is the technology that IBM FlashSystem
and SAN Volume Controller use to help deliver that ability in
hybrid cloud environments?

Container Storage Interface 

Amazon Web Services S3

Artificial Intelligence

Machine Learning
Question 6

Correct

Points out of 1.00

IBM’s acquisition of Red Hat has enabled IBM’s storage to


support containerization and easy transportability between
various clouds and on-premises environments using an open
standard. What software enables this?

Kubernetes

OpenShift 

OpenStructure

Docker

Question 7

Correct

Points out of 1.00

It is largely understood that talking about Speeds and feeds is


ineffective when trying to sell storage for on-premises. When
the conversation is elevated and IBM involves the client in a
Proof of Concept, what percentage of opportunities result in a
win?

94% 

34%

54%

74%
Question 8

Correct

Points out of 1.00

Back Next

In speaking with a client, you mention that IBM Storage for


Hybrid Cloud and Cyber Resilience is centered on three pieces
of software. One of those pieces is Storage Protect Suite, or
it’s current equivalent. What are the other two pieces?

Storage Accelerate and Storage Virtualize

Storage Insights and Storage Virtualize 


Storage Scale and Storage Virtualize

Storage Discover and Storage Virtualize

Question 9

Correct

Points out of 1.00

In the Storage for Hybrid Cloud client presentation, we


attempt to show the customer several characteristics that
they should be looking for in storage. We believe that these
characteristics are distinctive for IBM Storage and will provide
a competitive advantage. Which one of these answers IS NOT
one of IBM’s distinctive competitive advantages?

Strategic storage choices are more about the software


foundation that you select than about the hardware it
happens to be running on.
You can bring cloud economics on-premises by using
consumption-based pricing that flexes up and down.

Non-volatile memory express (NVMe) delivers more 


predictable and faster throughput, thus helping to
increase infrastructure density.

Artificial intelligence (AI) infused software as a solution


(SaaS) based monitoring and management can simplify
operations.
Question 10

Correct

Points out of 1.00

Back Next

Server virtualization is the foundation of most traditional data


centers. Virtual machines were designed to make efficient use
of physical hardware. Containers are different. What are
containers primarily designed to accomplish?

Containers make it easy to move applications from 


one place to another.
Containers make even more efficient use of physical
hardware than virtual machines.

Containers orchestrate the deployment and management


of new applications only on-premises.

Containers help IT managers restrict the amount of data


that new-gen applications are creating.

Question 11

Correct

Points out of 1.00

What is the name of the base software stack that provides a


wealth of features for FlashSystem models and SAN Volume
Controller that brings consistent management and features to
over 500 different storage systems?

IBM Storage Discover

IBM Storage Virtualize 

IBM Storage Scale

IBM Storage Accelerate


Question 12

Correct

Points out of 1.00

Back Next

IBM promotes the benefits of using artificial-intelligence (AI)-


driven IBM Storage Insights which is cloud-based storage
monitoring. The software provides numerous types of feedback
on storage. Approximately how many data points are collected
daily to help optimize a client’s storage system?

Approximately 13 million.

Approximately 13 thousand.

Approximately 23 thousand.

Approximately 23 million. 

Question 13

Incorrect

Points out of 1.00

During a meeting, a client indicates they need storage for


TELCO use. What should a seller be sure to let them know?

IBM Storage FlashSystem 5045 and 5300 are Network 


Equipment-Building System (NEBs) certified.

IBM Storage FlashSystem 5015 and 5045 are Network


Equipment-Building System (NEBs) certified.

IBM Storage FlashSystem 5015 and 5045 are FIPs 140-2


certified.

IBM Storage FlashSystem 5045 and 5200 are FIPs 140-2


certified.
Question 14

What is the most affordably priced NVMe system in IBM’s


FlashSystem portfolio that supports on-premises use with the
ability to easily, and seamlessly, reach out to clouds?

IBM Storage FlashSystem 5045

IBM Storage FlashSystem 9500

IBM Storage FlashSystem 7300

IBM Storage FlashSystem 5300 

Question 15

Correct

Points out of 1.00

A seller has heard about an opportunity with a client who has


heterogeneous storage on-premises and wants to move to
cloud. Unfortunately, as the opportunity develops it becomes
clear the client definitely does not need any new on-prem
storage. How can a seller save this opportunity?

By talking to them about IBM Storage FlashSystem 5300


because it is small and won’t require much rack space.

By only talking to them about IBM Storage Discover


because it will work with anything.

By talking to them about IBM Storage SAN Volume 


Controller and Storage Virtualize for Public Cloud.

By talking to them about IBM Storage FlashSystem 5045


because it is relatively small and very inexpensive.
