Each question shows the correct answer and an explanation of why it is right
Which of the following statements about Content Delivery Network (CDN) is incorrect?
Option D is incorrect because improved response speed and website availability are fundamental objectives of CDN. Huawei's official CDN description explicitly characterizes CDN as a smart virtual network on Internet infrastructure that caches origin content at points of presence closer to users. This reduces transmission distance and accelerates access.
Huawei specifically states that CDN speeds up site response and improves site availability, while overcoming bottlenecks associated with low bandwidth, heavy user traffic, and uneven distribution of network nodes. Therefore, claiming that CDN cannot improve response speed or availability directly contradicts the documented purpose of the service.
Option A is essentially Huawei's own definition of CDN. Option B correctly describes major problems addressed by distributed content caching and request scheduling. Option C is also correct: content is cached or distributed to edge PoPs, and requests are scheduled to suitable nearby nodes. This reduces the requirement for every request to reach the original server.
CDN can additionally reduce origin-server workload and bandwidth consumption, which may improve origin infrastructure efficiency. However, that benefit exists alongside, not instead of, faster response and improved availability.
Accordingly, D is the only incorrect statement.

A new media company deploys its service system on HUAWEI CLOUD. Its services include streaming media, archiving, editing, transcoding, content distribution, and video on demand. Multiple hosts need to access the same media file. Which of the following services is the most suitable one for the company?
Scalable File Service (SFS) is the precise Huawei Cloud service for this workload. The wording in the question closely follows Huawei's official media processing application scenario for SFS. Huawei specifically lists streaming media, archiving, editing, transcoding, content distribution, and video on demand as representative media-processing workloads.
The decisive requirement is that multiple hosts must access the same media files concurrently. SFS provides shared file storage that can be mounted by multiple ECSs or other supported compute resources through standard file protocols. Applications then interact with the storage through normal directories and file-system semantics. This eliminates the need to redesign media-processing applications around object-storage APIs.
OBS is highly scalable and well suited to object storage, content distribution, archive, and VOD data, but applications access OBS through HTTP/HTTPS, APIs, or SDKs rather than through a conventional shared filesystem. EVS provides block storage and generally must be attached to a server; ordinary EVS is not the direct multi-host shared file-system solution. Huawei's storage-selection guidance identifies SFS specifically for media processing and file sharing.
Therefore, B. SFS best satisfies the shared-media workflow.

IAM users created by an administrator do not have default permissions. Which of the following statements about permissions is incorrect?
Option A is incorrect because it confuses full-access permissions with a read-only role. In Huawei Cloud IAM, a permission whose name contains FullAccess normally represents full or administrator-level permissions for the corresponding service. For example, IAMFullAccess provides full permissions for IAM operations rather than read-only access.
Huawei Cloud separately defines Tenant Guest as providing read-only permissions for cloud services other than IAM. This distinction is important in HCIA IAM authorization concepts: FullAccess and ReadOnlyAccess represent materially different privilege levels.
The remaining statements correctly describe Huawei Cloud authorization. IAM supports roles and policies as authorization mechanisms, with policies providing more fine-grained control. User groups provide an efficient way to authorize multiple IAM users: an administrator assigns permissions to a group and then places users in that group, after which the users inherit the group's permissions. Finally, an IAM user can perform only the cloud-service operations allowed by the permissions granted to that identity.
Thus, option A incorrectly assigns the behavior of a read-only permission model to FullAccess and is the required answer.

Which of the following problems can be resolved by HUAWEI CLOUD Content Delivery Network (CDN)?
Options B, C, and D identify problems that CDN architecture is designed to mitigate. Huawei defines CDN as an intelligent virtual network built on Internet infrastructure that caches origin content on geographically distributed points of presence close to users. This substantially shortens the network path between users and frequently requested resources.
Consequently, CDN improves download speed because users can retrieve cached files from a nearby edge PoP rather than repeatedly crossing long-distance networks to the origin server. It also addresses slow website access by accelerating static content delivery, reducing latency, and improving site response and availability. Huawei specifically states that CDN breaks through bottlenecks associated with limited bandwidth, high access traffic, and uneven network-node distribution.
Caching popular content at edge nodes also reduces repeated traffic flowing through core and backbone networks. This alleviates bandwidth pressure on both the origin infrastructure and long-distance network paths.
Option A is not a CDN problem statement. CDN commonly reduces origin-server load, meaning utilization of origin resources may decrease rather than fixing a problem described as ''low server utilization.'' Its purpose is acceleration and traffic offloading, not increasing server utilization.
Therefore, B, C, and D are correct.

In HUAWEI CLOUD Object Storage Service (OBS), an object policy is only applied to a single object in a bucket. A bucket policy applies to some or all of the objects in a bucket.
The statement is TRUE. Huawei Cloud OBS provides several resource-based authorization mechanisms, including bucket policies and object policies. Their principal distinction is the scope of resources to which they apply.
Huawei's official OBS Permission Configuration Guide explicitly states that an object policy applies to only one object in a bucket, whereas a bucket policy applies to multiple objects or all objects within the bucket. This enables administrators to select the authorization mechanism that best matches the required granularity.
An object policy is useful when permissions must be configured specifically for an individual object, such as granting another principal read or write permissions to one particular resource without broadening access to the rest of the bucket.
A bucket policy supports broader authorization scenarios. Its policy statements can define principals, actions, resources, effects, and conditions to grant or restrict access to selected objects, prefixes, or the entire bucket. Typical uses include allowing another Huawei Cloud account to access specified OBS resources or granting IAM identities access to defined bucket content.
The question therefore correctly distinguishes object-level policy scope from bucket-level multi-object policy scope.

Which of the following statements about Cloud Eye are correct?
Statements B and C are correct. Huawei Cloud Eye supports batch creation of monitoring alarms. Huawei's documented quota specifically states that up to 50 monitored objects can be selected when creating an alarm rule and that up to 1,000 alarm rules can be created at one time. Huawei even provides the exact example used here: 50 monitored objects multiplied by 20 metrics produces 1,000 alarm rules. Therefore, B is directly supported.
Statement C is also valid. Cloud Eye alarm rules can provide monitoring triggers used with Auto Scaling. An alarm-based AS policy references a Cloud Eye alarm rule; when monitored metrics meet the configured threshold condition, the corresponding scaling action can be initiated.
Statement A is false because Cloud Eye server monitoring is not limited to OS-level resource metrics. With the Agent installed, Huawei Cloud Eye also provides process monitoring, including process CPU usage, memory usage, opened files, and customized process-monitoring tasks.
Statement D is false because alarm templates and batch alarm creation eliminate the requirement to create every alarm rule individually.
