CompTIA CASP+ (CAS-004) — Question 229

A cloud engineer is tasked with improving the responsiveness and security of a company’s cloud-based web application. The company is concerned that international users will experience increased latency.

Which of the following is the BEST technology to mitigate this concern?

Answer options

• A. Caching
• B. Containerization
• C. Content delivery network
• D. Clustering

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The best solution to reduce latency for international users is a Content Delivery Network (CDN), as it distributes content closer to users geographically. Caching can improve speed but does not address latency due to distance, while containerization and clustering are more focused on application deployment and scalability rather than direct latency issues.
