IBM Cloud® Internet Services Edge functions allow you to create or modify existing applications, without having to configure or maintain infrastructure, by using a serverless execution environment. Edge functions run on CIS edge servers, not in the user’s browser. That means you can trust that your code runs in a trusted environment where it cannot be bypassed by malicious clients. It also means that the user does not need to be using a modern browser that supports service workers – you can even intercept requests from API clients that aren't browsers. Edge Functions allows you to run code closer to users of your public-facing applications or websites. In turn, you can improve your application's performance and reduce latency. This means you can quickly create new applications or modify existing ones without having to configure or maintain infrastructure via our serverless execution environment. Once a new application is deployed or an existing application is modified, it takes us ~15 seconds to get the changes distributed globally to our 180+ PoPs worldwide.

IBM Cloud Satellite is IBM's distributed cloud offering. It provides consistency in services and the ability to deploy anywhere. It is a platform service that allows users to deploy IBM Cloud services outside IBM Cloud data centers. IBM Cloud Satellite can run in a client data center, another cloud, or in-edge networks (distributed cloud framework that brings enterprise applications closer to a data source). When an IBM Cloud Satellite location is established, it allows the user to run selected IBM Cloud services in that location.

Explanation

Correct Answer : MongoDB is an open source, non-relational database management system that uses flexible documents to process and store various forms of data. A NoSQL solution, MongoDB provides an elastic data model that enables users to store and query multivariate data types with ease. This not only simplifies database management for developers but also creates a highly scalable environment for applications and services. MongoDB uses documents or collections of documents as its basic unit of data. Formatted as JSON objects, these documents can store various types of data and be distributed across multiple systems. MongoDB offers a few capabilities that make it stand out from other database management systems, including load balancing, ad hoc database queries, and multi-language support. In-Correct Answers Redis (for REmote DIctionary Server) is an open-source, in-memory, NoSQL key-value store that is used primarily as an application cache or quick-response database. Redis supports multiple data structures, built-in Lua scripting, multiple levels of on-disk persistence, and high availability. While Redis is an in-memory database store, MongoDB is known as an on-disk document store. Although both solutions are built for different purposes, they are often used together to maximize the speed and efficiency of a NoSQL database. PostgreSQL, commonly pronounced “Post-GRES,” is an open-source database that has a strong reputation for its reliability, flexibility, and support of open technical standards. PostgreSQL provides the ability to restore databases to a specific moment in time because it maintains a write-ahead log that logs every database change. PostgreSQL features built-in support for multiple procedural languages. etcd is an open-source, distributed key-value store used to hold and manage the critical information that distributed systems need to keep running. etcd’s performance is heavily dependent upon storage disk speed, so it’s highly recommended to use SSDs in etcd environments. Db2 is a relational database with enterprise-grade performance. It provides multizone support allowing it to be run in a highly-available configuration. Note : Cloudant is also a document database that uses JSON files to store and index documents. Its serverless design allows for easy scaling based on need.
