Question

A customer's facility is located in an area where natural disasters happen frequently. The customer requires the following:

  • Data resiliency due to exposure to frequent natural disasters
  • Data localization because of privacy regulations in the country
  • High availability

Which of the following cloud resources should be provisioned to meet these requirements?

Options

  • AStorage in a separate data center located in same region
  • BAn on-premises private cloud carrying duplicate data
  • CStorage in an availability zone outside the region
  • DStorage in the same availability zone as the primary data

Explanation

Natural disasters affect entire geographic regions, so storing data only within the same region risks total loss during a regional event. Placing storage in an availability zone outside the primary region provides geographic separation for disaster resilience and high availability. Critically, 'outside the region' in cloud architecture refers to a different geographic region within the same country, which satisfies data localization (privacy regulations requiring data to stay within national borders). Same-region data centers (A) don't protect against regional disasters. On-premises private cloud (B) adds management overhead and is still geographically vulnerable. Same availability zone (D) provides no geographic redundancy at all.
