CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-002) — Question 159

A customer has requirements for its application data to be copied into a second location for failover possibilities. Latency should be minimized, while RPO and
RTO are over 15 minutes. Which of the following technologies BEST fits the customer's needs?

Answer options

• A. Data mirroring
• B. Snapshot copies
• C. Storage cloning
• D. Asynchronous replication

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, Snapshot copies, as they allow for point-in-time backups without significant performance impact, fulfilling the requirement for low latency. Options A and D involve continuous data replication and could introduce higher latency, while C, Storage cloning, is typically used for creating exact copies rather than for failover purposes.
