A retail platform is using a database cluster that is no longer vendor-supported. The organization wants to handle the final stage for the servers in a way that meets compliance guidelines and mitigates exposure. Which measure meets that requirement?
Reinstall the operating system on the existing hosts to extend hardware usability
Duplicate the setup in another region but maintain the original for backup
Retain the servers for future patch testing after the vendor’s support period has ended
Transfer files to approved storage, remove the servers from production, and update any references that rely on the old environment
Removing outdated resources after migrating essential data addresses security and compliance concerns. Archiving relevant data helps preserve important information for audits. Reinstalling the operating system to extend hardware usability, retaining them for future testing, or duplicating them to another region does not remove the risk associated with unsupported systems. Transferring data to a secure storage location, removing them from production, and updating references to point to the new environment prevents leftover dependencies and limits exposure.
