Aarav Textiles Ltd. keeps a fully equipped duplicate data centre in Pune with live data replication, so operations can switch over within minutes of a failure at its Chennai primary site. How is the Pune facility best classified?
It is a hot site. A hot site is a fully equipped, continuously replicated alternate facility that can take over operations within minutes. Cold and warm sites need more time to install or restore systems, so they cannot give such rapid switchover.

- BWarm site
- CHot siteCorrect
- DReciprocal site
Explanation
A hot site is fully equipped and continuously synchronised, allowing near-immediate failover. A cold site offers only space and utilities, and a warm site has hardware but needs data restoration and configuration. A reciprocal site is an arrangement with another organisation, not a dedicated duplicate.
