CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-003) — Question 278

An organization has a web-server farm. Which of the following solutions should be implemented to obtain efficient distribution of requests to the servers?

Answer options

• A. A clustered web server infrastructure
• B. A load-balancing appliance
• C. A containerized application
• D. Distribution of web servers across different regions and zones

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, a load-balancing appliance, as it is specifically designed to distribute incoming traffic efficiently among multiple servers, ensuring optimal performance and availability. Options A and D may provide redundancy or geographical distribution, but they do not focus on the active distribution of requests. Option C, while useful for deployment, does not address the request management aspect directly.
