Name of a point-in-time backup of a persistent disk.

  1. Backup Disk

  2. Snapshot

  3. Clone Disk

  4. Replicated Disk

The correct answer is: Snapshot

A Backup Disk - While a backup disk may be used for a point-in-time or incremental backup, it is not a term used specifically for persistent disks. B: Snapshot - A snapshot is a point-in-time copy of a persistent disk that can be used for backup purposes. It captures the exact state of the disk at a given moment, allowing for easy restoration if needed. C: Clone Disk - Cloning a disk creates an exact copy of the original disk, including any changes that have been made since the clone was created. However, it is not strictly a point-in-time backup. D: Replicated Disk - Replication involves creating multiple copies of data for redundancy and fault tolerance. While it may be used for backup purposes, it is not a term used specifically for point-in-time backups of persistent disks.
