What distinguishes Persistent Data Storage from Transient Data Storage?

  1. Persistent Data Storage is more temporary

  2. Persistent Data Storage is less secure

  3. Data in Transient Data Storage is stored beyond current transactions

  4. Persistent Data Storage stores data beyond current transactions

The correct answer is: Persistent Data Storage stores data beyond current transactions

Persistent Data Storage stores data beyond current transactions. This means that data is retained over an extended period, whereas Transient Data Storage is typically temporary and holds data for the duration of a specific transaction or session. Option A is incorrect because Persistent Data Storage is actually intended for long-term data retention. Option B is incorrect as there is no inherent statement about the security levels between the two types of storage in the question. Option C is incorrect as Transient Data Storage does not necessarily store data beyond current transactions; it is meant for temporary data storage.
