120 days seems way too long for a business sale!

I’m leaning towards 60 days too, but I could be mixing it up with another regulation. I wish I had reviewed this section more!

I’m pretty uncertain about this one. I thought the WARN Act required 90 days, but I guess that’s not an option here.

I feel like I saw a similar question in our practice exams, and it was about 30 days. But that might have been for a different situation.

Wait, I thought the WARN Act required 30 days' notice. But now I'm second-guessing myself. I better review the key points of the law before answering this.

Okay, let me see. The question says the organization has 80 full-time employees, and the WARN Act applies to mass layoffs. I'm pretty sure the answer is 60 days, but I should double-check the details just to be sure.

Alright, I think I've got a good handle on this. Option B with CloudEndure Disaster Recovery seems like the most straightforward and cost-optimized solution. Replicating the database changes continuously and then just spinning up the secondary instance during a failover - that should hit all the requirements they're looking for.
