CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-002) — Question 136

A systems administrator migrated a company's CRM middleware to a VPC and left the database in the company's datacenter. The CRM application is now accessible over the Internet. A VPN between the company network and the VPC is used for the middleware to communicate with the database server. Since the migration, users are experiencing high application latency. Which of the following should the company do to resolve the latency issue?

Answer options

• A. Increase the resources for the middleware.
• B. Add more resources to the VPC.
• C. Move the database into the cloud.
• D. Implement load balancers in the VPC.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Adding more resources to the VPC can help manage the increased demand and optimize performance, thereby reducing latency. Increasing middleware resources may not address the communication delays caused by the distance to the database. Moving the database to the cloud could be a long-term solution, but it requires significant effort and time. Implementing load balancers may help distribute traffic, but it doesn't directly resolve latency related to database access.
