CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1201) — Question 3

Which of the following is an advantage of using a hybrid cloud instead of a public cloud?

Answer options

• A. Ability to reduce management overhead
• B. Ability to use cross-platform virtualization
• C. Ability to meet data residency requirements
• D. Ability to leverage IaaS and PaaS

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because a hybrid cloud allows organizations to keep sensitive data on-premises to comply with data residency laws while still leveraging public cloud resources. The other options do not specifically address the regulatory and compliance needs that a hybrid cloud solution satisfies, making them less relevant in this context.
