VMware Site Recovery Manager (2025) — Question 26

An administrator has been tasked with deploying a new VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) instance using a supported VCF Operations model that has the smallest possible resource footprint.
Which VCF Operations deployment model should the administrator use?

Answer options

• A. Continuous Availability
• B. High Availability
• C. Simple
• D. Stretched Cluster

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The Simple deployment model is designed for minimal resource consumption, making it the most efficient choice for this scenario. The Continuous Availability and High Availability models require additional resources to ensure uptime and redundancy, while the Stretched Cluster model is intended for geographically dispersed deployments, which further increases resource needs.
