CCSP Exam - Question 187


Which aspect of cloud computing would make the use of a cloud the most attractive as a BCDR solution?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: D

Measured service means that costs are only incurred when a cloud customer is actually using cloud services. This is ideal for a business continuity and disaster recovery (BCDR) solution because it negates the need to keep hardware or resources on standby in case of a disaster. Services can be initiated when needed and without costs unless required.

Very hard to reply to, many answers are correct. Let's just trust this answer is what the exam is looking for...

Looking into other questions, Portability is the second priority after the actual cost savings through measured services.

Resource pooling is a key cloud characteristic that makes it particularly attractive for BCDR solutions. It enables cloud providers to dynamically allocate and reassign resources from a shared pool, allowing organizations to quickly recover by leveraging redundant infrastructure without the need for significant capital investment. This rapid, flexible access to resources during a disaster can dramatically reduce downtime and recovery costs. In contrast, while interoperability, portability, and measured service have their benefits, they do not directly provide the dynamic and rapid resource reallocation that is critical in a disaster recovery scenario.
