  1. C – Least Overhead is one SQL Server in NY, the Satellite sites will use Local Host Cache in the event the SQL server is unavailable at the Primary Site

  2. Not a very clear question, it could be either D or C New York is where the SQL db is so C is correct however D is a better choice “sufficient hardware hints to two servers AlwaysOn” but its not clear SQL AlwayOn is configured in New York.

  3. I believe it is C. SQL having “AlwaysOn” configured means there would have to be a cluster I think, and in this case they only want/need 1 SQL server in NY

  4. It also says – “needs to operate with the least administrative overhead”. So, I think the answer should be D.
