You need to design the architecture and deployment for your workloads.
What should you do?

Answer options

• A. Select a public cloud provider that is only active in the required geographic area

• C. Select a public cloud provider that guarantees data location in the required geographic area
• D. Select a private cloud provider that is only active in the required geographic area

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because a public cloud provider that guarantees data location in the required geographic area ensures compliance with local regulations while allowing global access. Option A is incorrect as it limits the cloud provider's reach, potentially impacting service delivery. Option B, while it allows for fast data access, does not ensure compliance with the geographic storage requirement. Option D restricts operations to a single area, which may not meet the global service requirement.
