Nutanix Certified Professional – Multicloud Infrastructure v6.5 (NCP-MCI) — Question 53

Which scenario would benefit most from Erasure Coding being enabled on a container?

Answer options

• A. WEB and API Servers
• B. High performance databases where all data is relatively hot
• C. VDI use cases where a single VM is cloned 100’s of times
• D. Long term storage of data which is written once and read infrequently

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Erasure Coding is particularly advantageous for long-term storage scenarios like option D, as it provides data durability and efficient storage utilization for infrequently accessed data. The other options involve high-performance or frequently accessed data, where the overhead of Erasure Coding would not be justified compared to simpler redundancy methods.
