CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-003) — Question 15

A systems administrator is provisioning VMs in a cloud environment and has been told to select an OS build with the furthest end-of-life date. Which of the following OS builds would be BEST for the systems administrator to use?

Answer options

• A. Open-source
• B. LTS
• C. Canary
• D. Beta
• E. Stable

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The LTS (Long Term Support) version is designed for stability and security, offering support for an extended period, making it the best choice for long-term use. In contrast, Canary and Beta versions are meant for testing and may not be stable, while Stable versions may not have as long support as LTS.
