VMware vSphere 8.x Advanced Design (VCAP-DCV Design) — Question 32

An architect is designing a new vSphere-based solution for a customer.
During a requirements gathering workshop, the following information is provided:
The solution must have a primary and secondary (isolated) environment
The solution must support orchestration to address application dependencies
The isolated environment must be able to scale on demand in case of a DR scenario
The solution is managed through a single interface
Which solution should the architect include in this design?

Answer options

• A. Site Recovery Manager with dedicated hardware
• B. Disaster Recovery with VMware Cloud on AWS
• C. vSAN stretched cluster
• D. A dedicated fault domain

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because VMware Cloud on AWS provides a flexible disaster recovery solution that meets the requirement for an isolated environment that can scale on demand. Option A, while capable, often requires more complex infrastructure management. Option C does not specifically address the orchestration and isolated environment needs, and Option D does not fulfill the requirement of a scalable, isolated environment for DR scenarios.
