   Which statement best describes the interaction between backup clients and backup storage in a data protection architecture?

   • ABackup storage initiates backup jobs and instructs clients to capture data.
   • BBackup clients send data directly to backup storage, typically under the direction of a backup server.
   • CBackup clients store data locally and never transfer it to backup storage.

   A company runs a 24/7 e-commerce platform. The database is 2 TB and changes constantly. The RPO is 15 minutes, and the RTO is 2 hours. The company has a secondary data center 50 miles away. The network link between the data centers has a latency of 20 ms and a bandwidth of 1 Gbps. The database team is concerned about the performance impact of synchronous replication on the primary database. The backup team wants to keep a daily backup for 30 days. Which architecture best meets all requirements?

   • AAsynchronous replication only, with no local backups.
   • BAsynchronous replication to the secondary site, plus continuous data protection (CDP) for point-in-time recovery, and daily backups to disk retained for 30 days.
   • CSynchronous replication to the secondary site, plus CDP for point-in-time recovery, and daily backups to disk.
   • DSynchronous replication to the secondary site, plus daily backups to tape retained for 30 days.

   A healthcare organization must retain patient records for seven years to comply with regulations. They currently store all data on high-performance disk, which is expensive. They want to reduce storage costs while keeping the data readily accessible for occasional retrieval. What should they implement?

   • AA backup system that performs daily full backups to the same disk.
   • BA replication system that copies the data to a second high-performance disk array.
   • CAn archiving system that moves older records to lower-cost storage tiers, such as tape or cloud archive.
   • DA data protection software that only compresses the data on the existing disk.

   An organization has a backup environment with multiple backup servers, each managing different departments. The IT director wants a weekly report showing the success/failure status of all backup jobs across the entire environment. What should the administrator use to generate this report?

   • AThe reporting feature of the centralized management console.
   • BA network monitoring tool that tracks backup traffic.
   • CA manual compilation of logs from each backup server.
   • DA storage reporting tool that shows capacity usage.

   A media company produces large video files that are accessed frequently for the first 30 days after production, then rarely accessed afterward. They must retain all files for five years for legal reasons. They want to minimize storage costs while ensuring fast access to recent files. What should they implement?

   • AA replication system that copies all files to a second site.
   • BA data protection software that compresses all files.
   • CA backup system that stores all files on high-performance disk.
   • DAn archiving system with tiered storage: high-performance disk for recent files and lower-cost storage for older files.
