Question
Which of the following is an advantage of using a hybrid cloud instead of a public cloud?
- A. Ability to reduce management overhead
- B. Ability to use cross-platform virtualization
- C. Ability to meet data residency requirements Correct
- D. Ability to leverage IaaS and PaaS
Explanation
A hybrid cloud keeps some workloads and data on private, on-premises or in-region infrastructure, so an organization can store regulated data where law or policy requires while still using public cloud services. A public cloud alone also offers IaaS, PaaS and cross-platform virtualization, so those are not hybrid-specific advantages. A hybrid model usually adds management overhead rather than reducing it.
