Answer choices
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
SAP Production System: Typically deployed across multiple Availability Zones with SAP HANA System Replication for high availability.
SAP production systems require high availability and are typically deployed across multiple AZs. Development and sandbox systems have lower availability needs and are often in single AZs.
Answer analysis
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
SAP Production System: Typically deployed across multiple Availability Zones with SAP HANA System Replication for high availability.
Why this is correct
Production systems require high availability and fault tolerance, so they are deployed across multiple AZs.
SAP Production System: Typically deployed in a single Availability Zone for cost optimization.
Why it's wrong here
Production systems need high availability, not cost optimization, and are not typically deployed in a single AZ.
SAP Development System: Typically deployed in a single Availability Zone due to lower availability requirements.
Why this is correct
Development systems do not require high availability, so a single AZ is sufficient and cost-effective.
SAP Development System: Typically deployed across multiple Regions for disaster recovery.
Why it's wrong here
Multi-Region deployment is for disaster recovery, not for development systems.
SAP Sandbox System: Typically deployed in a single Availability Zone on smaller instances.
Why this is correct
Sandbox systems are small and non-critical, so a single AZ with smaller instances is typical.
SAP Sandbox System: Typically deployed across multiple Availability Zones with high availability.
Why it's wrong here
Sandbox systems do not need high availability; multi-AZ deployment is overkill.
