What is a benefit of synchronous remote replication?

Answer options

• A. Saves network bandwidth by replicating only deduplicated data
• B. Replicates data across any geographic location without impacting response time
• C. Ensures that source and replica always have identical data
• D. Supports repeated write I/O to the same location to improve replication performance

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because synchronous remote replication ensures that data is identical on both the source and the replica at all times. Option A is incorrect as it refers to bandwidth savings through deduplication, which is not a characteristic of synchronous replication. Option B is misleading since synchronous replication does impact response time due to the need for immediate data consistency. Option D is also incorrect as it does not accurately reflect the primary function of synchronous replication.
