CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-004) — Question 12

A new application that will be deployed to cloud VMs has the following requirements:

• Low inter-VM latency
• Horizontal scaling support
• 98.5% availability
• 8vCPU and 16GB
• Ability to split jobs across VMs

Which of the following will best meet these requirements?

Answer options

• A. Load balanced 2vCPU with 4GB RAM on multiregion
• B. Load balanced 4vCPU with 8GB RAM on single availability zone
• C. Load balanced 2vCPU with 4GB RAM on multiple availability zones
• D. Single 8vCPU with 16GB RAM VM on single availability zone

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Option C is the best choice as it allows for horizontal scaling and distributes workloads across multiple availability zones, which helps meet the availability requirement. Option A and B do not provide enough resources or fail to utilize multiple availability zones effectively, while option D does not support horizontal scaling as it's a single VM.
