Nutanix Certified Professional – Multicloud Automation (NCP-MCA) — Question 5

An application team wants faster releases and starts an initiative to automate the entire database and application deployments.
The current manual process involves:
Creating virtual machines to host the databases and applications
Allocate right amount of storage for the database and applications
Deploy database software and create database
Schedule backup and recovery process for the database

Deploy applications -
How can application releases be repeatedly deployed in the least amount of time?

Answer options

• A. Create a Calm blueprint calling Calm APIs for both database and applications deployments
• B. Deploy databases manually and create a Calm blueprint to automate application deployment
• C. Deploy databases through Era and create a Calm blueprint to automate application deployment
• D. Create a Calm blueprint deploying applications and calling Era APis to automate database deployments

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because it emphasizes the manual deployment of databases first, which allows for a clear understanding of the database setup before automating the application deployment. Options A and C suggest automating both processes simultaneously, which may not streamline the release process as effectively. Option D puts the emphasis on applications while still requiring database automation, which may complicate the workflow.
