GIS basemap services need a cost-conscious continuity design: keep data replication on, but minimize the app tier until disaster. Which scenario fits?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Pilot light leaves the data furnace lit and the app tier as a spark. When disaster hits, fan the compute into a full stack—cheaper than running twin cities, faster than cold tape.
Full Explanation
Pilot light continuity keeps critical data replicated (and minimal core infrastructure ready) while application capacity stays minimal until failover scale-out—fitting cost/RTO balance for GIS basemaps. Always-on dual full capacity may exceed budget; quarterly tapes and deleting data fail continuity goals.
