   A company is considering moving their backup target to the cloud to reduce on-premises storage costs. They have a large amount of duplicate data across servers. Which NetWorker feature should they emphasize to maximize cost savings?

   • ACloud storage tiering to move older backups to cheaper storage classes.
   • BCompression to reduce the size of each backup file.
   • CData deduplication to eliminate redundant data before it is sent to the cloud.
   • DEncryption to protect data at rest in the cloud.

   What is a characteristic of the 'direct to cloud' backup method in NetWorker?

   • AData is sent to a NetWorker server, which then forwards it to the cloud
   • BData is sent directly from the NetWorker client to the cloud storage without an intermediate on-premises device
   • CData is sent to a cloud provider's physical tape library
   • DData is first written to a local disk staging area before being moved to the cloud

   A NetWorker administrator is troubleshooting slow cloud backups. The backup data has a high deduplication ratio, but the throughput is still low. The administrator suspects the bottleneck is the cloud provider's API. What should they do to improve performance?

   • ADisable deduplication to reduce the processing overhead.
   • BSwitch to a different cloud provider that has higher API limits.
   • CIncrease the number of concurrent backup streams to the cloud.
   • DUse a smaller block size for the backup to reduce API calls.
