CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1001) — Question 264

A systems administrator wants to take advantage of the benefits of the major cloud providers while retaining some data and services in the local datacenter.
Which of the following types of cloud model should the administrator consider?

Answer options

• A. Public
• B. Private
• C. Hybrid
• D. Community

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, Hybrid, because it allows for a combination of both cloud and on-premises resources, enabling the administrator to utilize cloud resources while maintaining critical data locally. The other options, Public and Private, do not offer the flexibility to integrate both environments, while Community is focused on sharing resources among a specific group.
