Designing Cisco Data Center Infrastructure (DCID, legacy) — Question 80

Which two business requirements have the most influence on the data center design? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. reduce power consumption
• B. increase network bandwidth
• C. increase storage capacity
• D. increase cooling requirement
• E. reduce virtual machine to host ratio
• F. reduce data center footprint (floorspace)

Correct answer: A, E

Explanation

The correct answers, A and E, are crucial because reducing power consumption directly relates to operational costs and sustainability, while lowering the virtual machine to host ratio can improve performance and resource allocation. The other options, while important, do not have as significant an impact on overall data center design considerations.
