A media production company archives completed video projects. The archive policy states that projects must be retained for 5 years, but the legal team requires that no archived file be modified or deleted before the retention period ends. The company wants to use a cloud storage service for the archive. Which configuration should the administrator implement?

Configure cross-region replication to a second storage bucket.

Enable versioning on the storage bucket and set a lifecycle policy to delete old versions after 5 years.

Set the storage class to cold archive and rely on the provider's default data protection.

Apply a retention lock with a 5-year retention period to the storage bucket.

A hospital must retain patient records for 10 years. The records include large diagnostic imaging files (5–20 GB each) and small text-based reports. The hospital has a limited IT budget and must balance storage cost with the ability to retrieve records quickly for ongoing patient care. The imaging files are accessed frequently in the first year, then rarely. The text reports are accessed regularly throughout the retention period. Which archiving strategy best balances cost and access requirements?

Store all data on tape and accept a 24-hour retrieval time for all records.

Store all data on high-performance flash storage for the full 10 years.

Store text reports on fast storage and imaging files on a tiered system that moves them to cold storage after one year.

Store imaging files on flash and text reports on tape.

A media company must archive 500 TB of raw video footage. The footage is accessed rarely, but when accessed, the company needs to retrieve specific clips quickly. The company is considering two options: (1) on-premises tape library with a 30-minute average retrieval time, or (2) a cloud archive storage tier with a 12-hour retrieval time. The company has a strict budget and the footage must be retained for 10 years. Which factor is most important in deciding between these two options?

The need for on-premises storage

The total amount of data to be archived

The retrieval time requirement for specific clips

The cost of the tape library hardware

A hospital must archive patient records for 10 years. The records include both structured data (lab results) and unstructured data (imaging files). The hospital's IT team must implement an archive solution that supports both types of data, minimizes cost, and ensures that the data can be retrieved for ongoing patient care. Which approach is most appropriate?

Use separate archive solutions: a database archive for structured data and a file archive for unstructured data.

Store all data on tape and retrieve it manually when needed.

Store all data in a cloud archive tier with a 24-hour retrieval time.

Use a single archive solution that stores all data in one format.

A government agency must retain decades of historical records. The records are accessed only a few times per year, and retrieval can take up to 48 hours. The agency has a limited budget and must store the data for at least 30 years. Which storage media is most appropriate for this requirement?

High-performance NVMe SSD storage

Enterprise tape storage with an automated library

Standard spinning-disk NAS storage

Dell Data Protection and Management Foundations v2
