You
are advising a school district on disaster recovery plans. In case a disaster affects the main IT centers
for the district they will need to be able to work from an alternate location. However, budget is an
issue. Which of the following is most appropriate for this client?

A.
Warm site

B.
Cold site

C.
Off site

D.
Hot site

Explanation:
A cold site provides an office space, and in some cases basic equipment. However, you
will need to restore your data to that equipment in
order to use it. This is a much less expensive solution than the hot site.
Answer option D is incorrect. A hot site has equipment installed, configured and ready to use. This
may make disaster recovery much faster,
but will also be more expensive. And a school district can afford to be down for several hours before
resuming IT operations, so the less
expensive option is more appropriate.
Answer option A is incorrect. A warm site is between a hot and cold site. It has some equipment
ready and connectivity ready. However, it is
still significantly more expensive than a cold site, and not necessary for this scenario.
Answer option C is incorrect. Off site is not any type of backup site terminology.
