When you update records in multiple locations or you make a copy of the whole database at a remote location as a way to achieve the proper level of fault- tolerance and redundancy, it is knows as?
Suggested Answer:A🗳️
Updating records in multiple locations or copying an entire database to a remote location as a means to ensure the appropriate levels of fault-tolerance and redundancy is known as Database shadowing. Shadowing is the technique in which updates are shadowed in multiple locations. It is like copying the entire database on to a remote location. Shadow files are an exact live copy of the original active database, allowing you to maintain live duplicates of your production database, which can be brought into production in the event of a hardware failure. They are used for security reasons: should the original database be damaged or incapacitated by hardware problems, the shadow can immediately take over as the primary database. It is therefore important that shadow files do not run on the same server or at least on the same drive as the primary database files. The following are incorrect answers: Data mirroring In data storage, disk mirroring is the replication of logical disk volumes onto separate physical hard disks in real time to ensure continuous availability. It is most commonly used in RAID 1. A mirrored volume is a complete logical representation of separate volume copies. Backups In computing the phrase backup means to copy files to a second medium (a disk or tape) as a precaution in case the first medium fails. One of the cardinal rules in using computers is back up your files regularly. Backups are useful in recovering information or a system in the event of a disaster, else you may be very sorry :-( Archiving is the storage of data that is not in continual use for historical purposes. It is the process of copying files to a long-term storage medium for backup. Reference(s) used for this question: Hernandez CISSP, Steven (2012-12-21).
