Dell EMC Associate – Backup and Recovery Solutions Design v2 — Question 11

What is a benefit of synchronous remote replication?

Answer options

• A. provides near zero recovery point objective
• B. requires less storage space for target than source volume
• C. allows restoring source volume to any previous point in time
• D. allows more storage space for target than source volume

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer, A, highlights that synchronous remote replication ensures that data is captured in real-time, thus achieving a near-zero recovery point objective. Options B, C, and D are incorrect as they misrepresent the characteristics of synchronous replication; it does not reduce storage needs, allow arbitrary point restoration, or provide more target space compared to the source.
