CV0-002 · Question #374
Joe, the Chief Information Officer (CIO), wants to ensure he has minimal recovery time while keeping costs low. Which of the following will satisfy these requirements?
The correct answer is B. Off-site storage. Off-site storage, particularly modern cloud-based backup solutions, can balance relatively low costs with the ability to achieve quicker recovery times compared to traditional methods.

Why each option
Off-site storage, particularly modern cloud-based backup solutions, can balance relatively low costs with the ability to achieve quicker recovery times compared to traditional methods.
A warm site involves pre-configured infrastructure, leading to higher operational costs than basic off-site storage, even though it offers faster recovery than a cold site.
Modern off-site storage solutions, such as cloud-based backup and recovery services, can provide a good balance between low cost and minimal recovery time by leveraging pay-as-you-go storage and on-demand compute resources for rapid data restoration and system recovery.
A cold site has very low costs but requires significant time to set up infrastructure and restore data, failing the "minimal recovery time" requirement.
Site mirroring (hot site) provides the most minimal recovery time but is the most expensive option due to maintaining fully synchronized, active duplicate environments.
