A company data center requires a new disaster recovery solution to host critical services. The solution can sustain several hours of data loss because the services are routinely backed up to an offsite location. Also, the disaster recovery solution must provide 24-hour availability. Due to the strict policy requirements, the company wants to retain complete control of when the failover process occurs.
Which solution meets these requirements?
A warm standby solution is suitable for a company data center that needs to host critical services with the capability of sustaining several hours of data loss while ensuring 24-hour availability. Warm standby involves maintaining partially active redundant resources, which ensures a quicker recovery time compared to a cold standby solution. Additionally, it allows the company to manage the failover process, retaining complete control, which aligns with the company's strict policy requirements.
Warm Standby provides faster recovery times and higher availability by maintaining partially active redundant resources. Answer should be B.
