az-900 Practice Question 1857
Exam: az-900
Domain: Describe cloud concepts
Topic: Describe the benefits of using cloud services
Difficulty: medium
A company is planning to migrate its on-premises web application to Azure to improve its disaster recovery capabilities. The application currently has a single server with no redundancy. Which benefit of cloud services would best address the need for disaster recovery in this scenario?
Answer Options
A
High Availability
B
Elasticity
C
Geo-replication
D
Scalability
Correct Answer
C: Geo-replication
Explanation
Disaster recovery in the cloud can be achieved through various mechanisms such as replication, backup, and geo-redundant storage. Geo-replication ensures that data is replicated across multiple regions, providing high availability and disaster recovery. While high availability, scalability, and elasticity are also important, they do not directly address the specific requirement of disaster recovery.
