CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-004) — Question 106

A cloud service provider requires users to migrate to a new type of VM within three months. Which of the following is the best justification for this requirement?

Answer options

• A. Security flaws need to be patched
• B. Updates could affect the current state of the VMs
• C. The cloud provider will be performing infrastructure maintenance
• D. The equipment is reaching end of life and end of support

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because when equipment reaches its end of life and support, it can no longer receive updates or maintenance, leading to potential security risks and performance issues. Options A, B, and C do not directly justify a mandatory migration timeline as they relate more to ongoing maintenance and updates rather than an urgent need to replace aging hardware.
