Read the first 7 Cloud Deployment & Migration flashcards as text

  1. Which Acronis Cyber Protect feature enables automatic cloud VM spin-up when an on-premises site becomes unreachable, without administrator intervention?

    Answer: Automated failover

    Automated failover detects site failure and automatically starts the cloud standby VM, eliminating manual intervention during a disaster.

  2. When deploying Acronis Cyber Protect in a hybrid cloud model, which component bridges communication between the on-premises management server and the Acronis Cloud management portal?

    Answer: Acronis Backup Gateway

    The Acronis Backup Gateway serves as the bridge that routes backup traffic and management communications between on-premises environments and Acronis Cloud.

  3. A customer needs RPO of 15 minutes for cloud-hosted VMs. Which Acronis backup schedule setting best meets this requirement?

    Answer: 15-minute incremental backup

    A 15-minute incremental backup schedule directly matches the 15-minute RPO requirement, ensuring no more than 15 minutes of data loss.

  4. In Acronis Cloud, what is the purpose of 'immutable storage' for backup archives?

    Answer: Preventing backup data from being modified or deleted for a defined period

    Immutable storage uses WORM (Write Once Read Many) policies to prevent backup data from being altered or deleted, protecting against ransomware.

  5. Which cloud provider integrations does Acronis Cyber Protect natively support for deploying cloud VMs as recovery targets?

    Answer: AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and Acronis Cloud

    Acronis Cyber Protect natively supports AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform, and Acronis Cloud as recovery targets.

  6. When migrating a workload using Acronis, what does 'seeding' refer to in the context of large data transfers to the cloud?

    Answer: Shipping physical storage media to the cloud provider to avoid slow network uploads

    Seeding involves copying backup data to physical media and shipping it to the data center to bypass slow or costly internet uploads for very large datasets.

  7. After a successful cloud failover in Acronis Disaster Recovery, what process returns operations back to the original on-premises environment?

    Answer: Reverse replication (failback)

    Failback (reverse replication) synchronizes changes made in the cloud back to the on-premises environment and restores normal operations there.
