You plan to deploy a payroll system to Azure. The payroll system will use Azure virtual machines that run SUSE Linux Enterprise Server and Windows.
You need to recommend a business continuity solution for the payroll system. The solution must meet the following requirements:
✑ Minimize costs.
✑ Provide business continuity if an Azure region fails.
✑ Provide a recovery time objective (RTO) of 120 minutes.
✑ Provide a recovery point objective (RPO) of five minutes.
What should you include in the recommendation?

A. Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager (DPM)

B. Azure Site Recovery

C. unmanaged disks that use geo-redundant storage (GRS)

D. Azure Backup








 

Suggested Answer: C

If your storage account has GRS enabled, then your data is durable even in the case of a complete regional outage or a disaster in which the primary region isn't recoverable.
Note: The recovery time objective (RTO) is the targeted duration of time and a service level within which a business process must be restored after a disaster (or disruption) in order to avoid unacceptable consequences associated with a break in business continuity.
Incorrect Answers:
B: Azure Site Recovery would not protect against an Azure region failure.
Azure Site Recovery guarantees a two-hour Recovery Time Objective.
