Options

• ACloud-only solution
• BRegional systems solution
• CLocation systems solution
• DMultiple cloud-service providers

• A

• B

• C
  75% (15)
• D

Explanation

Option C is correct because a "location systems solution" distributes data across multiple geographic locations - both on-premises and in the cloud - ensuring data remains accessible and protected even if one location experiences an outage or failure. This hybrid, geo-redundant approach is the most reliable strategy for continuous data protection during and after a cloud migration.

Option A (Cloud-only) is wrong because relying solely on a single cloud provider creates a single point of failure - if that provider goes down, all data access is lost. Option B (Regional systems) is too narrow in scope; limiting distribution to one region still leaves data vulnerable to region-wide outages. Option D (Multiple cloud-service providers) adds redundancy but introduces significant complexity, cost, and data synchronization challenges - it's not the standard recommended strategy for continuous protection.

Memory tip: Think "Location = Multiple Places = Always On." Continuous protection requires data to exist in more than one location, which is the direct hint baked into option C's name.
