An organization is developing a disaster recovery plan and wants a backup site that has hardware and network connectivity already set up, but where data synchronization and configuration would be necessary before resuming operations. Which type of site does this describe?
A warm site is a backup location equipped with hardware and network connectivity, allowing an organization to restore operations more quickly than at a cold site. However, it does not have current data or complete configurations, so data restoration and system setup are necessary before it becomes fully operational. This makes it a balance between a hot site, which is fully operational with real-time data replication, and a cold site, which lacks pre-installed hardware and requires significant time to set up.
