A hot site is a disaster recovery strategy that is cost-effective, minimizes data loss, and allows for the fastest recovery time in case of a disaster. It is an exact replica of the original site of the organization, with full computer systems as well as near-complete backups of user data. Hot sites are operational 24/7 and can take over functionality from the primary site immediately or with minimal delay.

If a cloud administrator can create additional instances in some locations but not others, the most likely reason for this failure is service quotas. Cloud providers often have quotas on the number of resources that can be created, and these limits can vary by region.

To allow subnets on different VPCs to communicate with each other over private channels, the cloud engineer should create peering connections between all the VPCs. VPC Peering allows networks to connect and route traffic using private IP addresses without the need for gateways, VPN connections, or separate physical hardware.

A NAS (Network Attached Storage) typically uses file-level protocols such as NFS or SMB, which are generally considered slower and less efficient than the block-level protocols used by SANs (Storage Area Networks), such as iSCSI or Fibre Channel. SANs are designed for high performance and low latency, making them more suitable for applications requiring fast and efficient storage access.
