A geographically distributed system can tolerate older reads but needs the documented ordering of a write sequence rather than a strict latest-value guarantee. Which Cosmos level should be evaluated?

Choose the single best answer.

A.Eventual claimed to guarantee a fixed freshness window and ordered observations
B.Consistent prefix under its documented semantics
C.Bounded staleness described as permission to reorder writes arbitrarily
D.Strong because every ordering requirement demands global latest-value reads

Show the answer and explanation

✓ Correct answer

Consistent prefix under its documented semantics

Consistent prefix addresses ordering without guaranteeing newest data. Strong supplies stricter latest-value behavior than requested. Eventual does not supply a fixed freshness bound, and bounded staleness is a bound rather than a license to reorder arbitrarily. Source guide: PDF page 31,42.
