CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-004) — Question 123

Which of the following best describes a characteristic of a hot site?

Answer options

• A. Servers in the hot site are clustered with the main site.
• B. Network traffic is balanced between the main site and hot site servers
• C. Offline server backups are replicated hourly from the main site
• D. All servers are replicated from the main site in an online status.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer, D, accurately defines a hot site as one where all servers are kept up to date and available in real-time from the main site. Options A and B describe configurations that may involve clustering or load balancing but do not define a hot site. Option C refers to offline backups, which is not characteristic of a hot site since hot sites rely on real-time replication.
