Question 814

Which of the following is the BEST reason for an organization to use Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS)?

    Correct Answer: C

    Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) is a cloud-based service model that allows organizations to back up their data and IT infrastructure in a third-party cloud environment and provides all the DR orchestration via a SaaS solution to regain access and functionality to IT infrastructure after a disaster. The best reason for an organization to use DRaaS is that it eliminates the need to maintain offsite facilities. By leveraging a third-party's infrastructure, organizations can avoid the significant costs and complexity associated with setting up and maintaining their own offsite disaster recovery environments.

it's C, it wont transfer the risk to third party, it's a SaaS, the organization still need to take responsibility for their data.

ThaveeOption: C

How can it be Risk transfer? Is moving On Premises MS office to Office 365 considered risk transfer? Are IaaS, Paas, and SaaS considered risk transfer? I do not think so.

Thavee

I think moving the services to Third parties, DRaas, IaaS, Paas, and Saas are about business objectives, specialization, and off load the works. In this case, I would focus on specialization and workload. Moving to third party can off load the work, letting the employees focus on the core business, that is the point.
