Which VM-level feature ensures continuous availability of data?

AReplication Factor

BData Locality

CData Protection

DDeduplication

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

Data Protection is a feature that ensures that data stored on a VM is protected against data loss in the event of hardware failure, data corruption, or other unexpected events. It typically includes features such as snapshots, replication, and backup, which enable administrators to create multiple copies of data and store them in different locations to provide redundancy and ensure availability.

Replication Factor is a related concept, but it is not a VM-level feature in and of itself. Replication Factor is a setting that can be configured at the storage level to determine how many copies of data are stored on different nodes in a distributed storage system. Data Locality and Deduplication are also related concepts, but they do not directly ensure continuous availability of data.

Really? I didn't know Replication Factor was that crucial!

I thought Deduplication was for storage efficiency, not availability.

Wait, isn't Data Protection more important?

Deduplication doesn't seem right for this question. I remember it being more about storage efficiency rather than availability. Replication Factor feels like the best option.

Data Locality sounds familiar, but I can't recall how it ties into continuous availability. I might be mixing it up with something else we studied.

I remember practicing a question about data protection, but I don't think that's the right choice here. It feels more like a general term rather than a specific VM feature.

I think the answer might be Replication Factor, but I'm not entirely sure. We talked about it in class, and it seems to relate to data availability.

Replication Factor is the way to go here. That's a fundamental technique for high availability of data in virtual machines.

I'm a bit confused on this one. I'll have to review my notes on VM-level features to decide between the options provided.

Replication Factor sounds right to me. That's a common way to provide redundancy and continuous access to data in a VM environment.

Hmm, I'm not totally sure about this one. I'll have to think it through carefully. Data locality, protection, or deduplication could also be relevant.

I'm pretty sure the answer is Replication Factor. That's a key feature for ensuring data availability in virtual machines.

I feel pretty confident about this one. Based on my understanding, the Reference Library component is where you'd find the reusable templates and best practices that can be used to construct architectures. I'll go with that.
