How many databases are needed to support the RSA Archer Platform?
The correct answer is B. 2. The RSA Archer Platform requires exactly 2 databases to operate - one for the primary application data and one for a separate supporting function.

Why each option
The RSA Archer Platform requires exactly 2 databases to operate - one for the primary application data and one for a separate supporting function.
A single database is insufficient - RSA Archer's architecture mandates two separate databases for correct platform operation.
RSA Archer requires 2 SQL Server databases: one serves as the primary application database storing all platform data, and a second database is used for configuration and supplementary platform functions. This two-database architecture is a defined infrastructure requirement and is not variable based on the number of applications or use cases configured within the platform.
Three databases exceed the required architecture; RSA Archer does not split its data stores across three databases by default.
Database count is fixed at the platform level and is independent of how many applications are created; adding applications does not add database instances.
