CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-003) — Question 127

A company is considering consolidating a number of physical machines into a virtual infrastructure that will be located at its main office. The company has the following requirements

• High-performance VMs
• More secure
• Has system independence

Which of the following is the BEST platform for the company to use?

Answer options

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The Type 1 hypervisor is the best choice as it runs directly on the hardware, providing better performance and security compared to other options. Type 2 hypervisors rely on a host operating system, which can introduce additional overhead and security risks. Software application virtualization focuses on individual applications rather than entire environments, while remote dedicated hosting may not offer the same level of system independence as a hypervisor.
