CompTIA Cloud Essentials+ (CLO-002) — Question 54
A company with critical resources in the cloud needs to ensure data is available in multiple datacenters around the world.
Which of the following BEST meets the company's needs?
Answer options
- A. Auto-scaling
- B. Geo-redundancy
- C. Disaster recovery
- D. High availability
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Geo-redundancy is the best option as it ensures that data is replicated across multiple geographical locations, providing high availability and access even if one data center goes down. Auto-scaling pertains to adjusting resources based on demand, while disaster recovery focuses on restoring data after a failure, neither of which directly ensures data is available in multiple locations. High availability ensures uptime but does not specifically address geographical data distribution.
