• Cost effective
• Granular recovery
• Multilocation
Which of the following backup types best meets these requirements?

A . Trap is thinking "cloud" in B but A's off-site covers multi-location and gives full, incremental, differential for granular/cost needs.
Option A since off-site plus full/incremental/differential gives you multilocation and cost efficiency.
Option A saw an almost identical question in my exam last year and it was A for sure.
A covers off-site and the mix of full, incremental, differential checks the cost and granularity boxes. Pretty sure that's what they want.
I remember seeing similar stuff in the official guide and the practice exams, and A checks all boxes. You get off-site storage for multilocation, plus full, incremental, and differential backups mean both cost savings and granular restores. Pretty sure A’s what they want.
B or A? B says "cloud site" which feels right for multilocation, but it doesn't mention incremental. Without incremental, cost effectiveness could take a hit. I think A is technically better for all three needs, but open to other views if anyone interprets multilocation differently.
B tbh, but if multilocation means true geographic separation not just off-site then maybe A fits better.
I would pick B here. "Cloud site" sounds like a better fit for multilocation, and you still get full plus differential backups for some restore flexibility. Not totally sure since granular recovery may not be as good without incrementals. Agree?
B
Had something like this in a mock, went with A. Off-site gives the multilocation part, and full/incremental/differential gives lots of restore points without blowing up costs. None of the others tick all three boxes.
Be respectful. No spam.
