   An organization runs a database on an on-premises ONTAP system and wants to maintain a warm standby copy in a cloud environment for disaster recovery. The database changes frequently, and the recovery point objective (RPO) is 15 minutes. The team wants to minimize the amount of data transferred over the WAN link. Which replication strategy should the architect choose?

   • AUse SnapMirror synchronous replication to the cloud to ensure zero data loss.
   • BConfigure SnapMirror asynchronous replication from the on-premises ONTAP system to a Cloud Volumes ONTAP instance in the cloud.
   • CPerform nightly full backups of the database and copy the backup files to the cloud using a file transfer tool.
   • DUse a database-native replication feature to replicate transactions to a cloud-hosted database instance.

   • BIt eliminates the need for any on-premises storage
   • CIt allows the same ONTAP management and data services to be used in the cloud as on-premises

   A multinational corporation has ONTAP systems in data centers in the EU and the US, and Cloud Volumes ONTAP instances in AWS regions in both areas. The compliance team requires that personal data of EU citizens remain within the EU. The architecture team wants to use Cloud Manager to manage all systems centrally. Which constraint must the architect address?

   • ADeploy a separate Cloud Manager instance in the EU and another in the US to keep management data separate.
   • BUse Cloud Manager's built-in data residency controls to restrict where data can be stored.
   • CEnsure that Cloud Manager is deployed in an EU region to keep management metadata within the EU.
   • DConfigure SnapMirror relationships so that EU data is only replicated to Cloud Volumes ONTAP instances in EU regions.
