Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops 7 Assessment, Design and Advanced Configurations — Question 87

Scenario: An IT department moved its entire infrastructure to Microsoft Azure. It is utilizing multiple Azure regions for redundancy. It also uses all Azure regions as resource locations within Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops Service in Citrix Cloud.
Which storage replication option will allow data to be read from both the primary and secondary locations?

Answer options

• A. Locally redundant storage (LRS)
• B. Read-access geo-redundant storage (RA-GRS)
• C. Zone-redundant storage (ZRS)
• D. Geo-redundant storage (GRS)

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is Read-access geo-redundant storage (RA-GRS) because it allows read access to data in both the primary and secondary locations, ensuring high availability. Locally redundant storage (LRS) only provides redundancy within a single region, while Zone-redundant storage (ZRS) and Geo-redundant storage (GRS) do not offer read access from the secondary location.
