Why each option

A cold site is a geographically separate disaster recovery facility that provides the infrastructure needed to restore operations at another location after a primary site failure.

ADifferential backups

Differential backups are a data backup method that copies data changed since the last full backup, and do not represent a geographically redundant site or cluster strategy.

BData deduplication

Data deduplication is a storage optimization technique that eliminates redundant data copies to reduce capacity usage, which is unrelated to site-level geographic redundancy.

CCold siteCorrect

A cold site is a disaster recovery strategy in which a geographically separate location holds the physical or virtual infrastructure required to bring systems back online after a failure, but is not actively running under normal conditions. Placing a website cluster at another geographical location represents this model, ensuring the business can recover operations remotely. This protects a revenue-generating site from region-level outages or disasters.

DHigh availability

High availability describes designs that keep a service continuously operational through redundancy and automatic failover mechanisms, typically within the same active infrastructure rather than a separate standby geographic cluster.
