An online retailer's web application is deployed across multiple virtual machines in an auto-scaling group. The application is stateless, and session data is stored in a separate caching layer. What resilience control is being exercised by this architecture?

Redundancy of the application tier through multiple instances.

Monitoring of the application's performance metrics.

Failover of the database to a standby replica.

Recovery of the application from backups.

A bank's online banking application is hosted on a cluster of servers with a load balancer. The database is replicated synchronously to a standby server in a different building. What is the PRIMARY purpose of the synchronous replication?

To protect the database from malware infections.

To ensure that the standby database has the most recent transactions in case of a failover.

To improve the performance of the online banking application.

To provide load balancing for database queries.
