This is a tricky one. I'm torn between B and D - both of those options seem to fit the description of organizations that contract with the state. I'll have to make an educated guess on this one.

This one seems pretty straightforward. The key requirements are a push model and real-time data access, so I'm going with streaming telemetry.

I'm a bit confused by the wording here. Does "file-based storage" mean the virtual servers can access the LUN5 as if it were a regular file system? I'll need to think this through carefully.
