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. Cold site
  • B. Off site
  • C. Warm site
  • D. Hot site
Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: use it. This is a much less expensive solution than the hot site. Answer: D is incorrect. A hot site has equipment installed, configured and ready to use. This may 🗳️
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 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, backup site terminology.

Selected Answer: C
C. Given the budget concerns, the most appropriate option for this school district would be a warm site. A warm site is a location that has infrastructure and equipment in place but is not actively running. The district can quickly move their data and systems to the warm site in case of an IT center disaster, but it will require some additional time and effort to get everything up and running smoothly. This option is less expensive than a hot site (which provides immediate backup capabilities) or off-site storage (which requires constant maintenance). A cold site would also be less ideal as it lacks any existing infrastructure or equipment, meaning more resources would have to be spent on setting it up before use.
