Certified Cloud Security Professional (CCSP) — Question 53

Clustered systems can be used to ensure high availability and load balancing across individual systems through a variety of methodologies.
What process is used within a clustered system to ensure proper load balancing and to maintain the health of the overall system to provide high availability?

Answer options

• A. Distributed clustering
• B. Distributed balancing
• C. Distributed optimization
• D. Distributed resource scheduling

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D, as Distributed resource scheduling is specifically designed to allocate and manage resources efficiently across a cluster, ensuring optimal performance and high availability. The other options, while related to clustering, do not directly address the process of managing load and maintaining system health in the same way.
