CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-004) — Question 25

Which of the following types of storage provides the greatest performance advantage for a traditional relational database?

Answer options

• A. File
• B. Object
• C. Block
• D. Ephemeral

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Block storage is optimized for high performance, making it the best choice for traditional relational databases that require quick data retrieval and low latency. File and object storage are not designed for the same level of performance, and ephemeral storage is typically temporary and not suited for database applications.
