CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-003) — Question 37

A technician is working with an American company that is using cloud services to provide video-based training for its customers. Recently, due to a surge in demand, customers in Europe are experiencing latency. Which of the following services should the technician deploy to eliminate the latency issue?

Answer options

• A. Auto-scaling
• B. Cloud bursting
• C. A content delivery network
• D. A new cloud provider

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct option is C, a content delivery network (CDN), as it helps distribute content closer to users, thus reducing latency. Auto-scaling (A) adjusts resources based on demand but does not specifically address latency. Cloud bursting (B) involves using additional cloud resources during peak times but may not directly reduce latency. A new cloud provider (D) could potentially solve the issue but is not a guaranteed solution for latency caused by geographic distance.
