CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-002) — Question 151

A manufacturing company has the following DR requirements for its IaaS environment:
✑ RPO of 24 hours
✑ RTO of 8 hours
The company experiences a disaster and has a two-site hot/cold configuration. Which of the following is the BEST way for the company to recover?

Answer options

• A. Restore data from the archives on the hot site, point users to it, and resume operations.
• B. Bring the cold site online, point users to it, and resume operations.
• C. Rebuild the site from the cold site, bring the site back online, and point users to it.
• D. Replicate data from the non-failed site to another cloud provider, point users to it, and resume operations.

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct choice is C because it involves rebuilding the site from the cold site, which meets the RTO of 8 hours. Options A and B do not ensure compliance with the company's RPO and RTO requirements, and option D involves unnecessary complexity and potential delays in recovery.
