CompTIA Cloud+ (CV0-004) — Question 86

An organization’s large e-commerce website requires high availability and cannot have degraded performance. Which of the following should a cloud administrator do to best meet the requirements?

Answer options

• A. Create a secondary server and load balance the traffic.
• B. Upgrade the drives to SSD and change the storage tier.
• C. Add a secondary NIC and configure network teaming to the existing server.
• D. Change the type of CPU and adjust the RAM size.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

Creating a secondary server and load balancing the traffic ensures that the website can handle high volumes of users without degrading performance, which is essential for high availability. Upgrading storage or adjusting network configurations may improve performance but do not directly address the need for high availability like load balancing does. Changing CPU and RAM may improve processing power but does not guarantee redundancy or failover capabilities.
